Sometimes, that's all there is. Especially for the two of them. No other way but through, in the most brutal of ways.
"You come in here and you ask me to do the worst thing you could have possibly asked. And you knew I'd say yes. You knew when it came down to it, we both knew there was no way Wylan was going to be able to put a fucking bullet in you, you knew it would be me, you knew I would do it. And you asked anyway." Though the emotion is definitely present on the inside, he could feel it all threatening to choke the air from his lungs inside the cage of his chest, but he's stubborn, and he's really good at keep his face neutral, despite everything else.
He nods, but the agreement isn't in it, it's something almost mocking. "You remember my face? Yeah. I remember yours too. I remember the light going out in your eyes. Everyone says people come back here, but how could we trust that, staring at your corpse?" He points at Jesper, "But you know what you don't remember? Is Wylan barely making it five feet away from where we were before he collapsed. The look on him for losing you. You can ask Inej how well I handled it after it was over."
