Not really.

[That's all there is to it, really. Despite his harsh words, he can't say he doesn't believe them at their core, nor that Crow didn't deserve to hear them. He just hates that it upset people he does hold in some more positive regard.

He won't insult Magpie by lying about it either.]

But what else is there to do? Considering I can't leave this miserable faux-reality.

[pancakeboy]

Let me be clear. What you said won't go away with an apology. You injured many people who are significant to me, and none of us will forget it soon. The only purpose an apology would serve, as you imply, is to show willing.

[It really seems like he doesn't understand apologies for their own sake—which is perfectly true.]

But a lot of people went to a lot of trouble to free you from your chains. Including some of those same people. I would regret it if you felt your hand was forced in this way.

[gorobo]

No, clearly not. I've been made fully aware by multiple people in multiple ways, thanks.

[Another one for the pile.]

I'll deal with it. I'd rather not hurt Raven more than I already I have.

[And that's the crux of the whole thing, isn't it?]

[pancakeboy]

[Maybe. Maybe not. Magpie's edging around something, not quite saying it.]

Then that will suffice. As long as it *is* your own choice, and not something other.

[As he thought. It's clear as day that Falcon regrets enough of what happened, which casts more light on its cause.]

[gorobo]

It is.

[He regrets, though maybe it's not for the reasons people would like him to.]

[pancakeboy]

[It's okay. Magpie knows more than a little about regret by now. Sometimes he even struggles to avoid it. But there's one gift he can give, after his warnings; just a small one.]

Then I'll leave it to your best judgement.

I'll be around, if you want to talk.

[gorobo]

Yeah.

I appreciate it.
