Of course, Orym. I’d never ask you to forget what you had with Will. It’s part of what makes you who you are, part of…of what I love so much about you.
And there’s no need for you to be “worthy” of anything. Nothing you do could change how I feel about you. [ Biting his lip, he glances off to the size. ] I…the truth is, I’ve never felt good enough for you. All I want is for you to be happy, and if I can do that for you, then I’m glad. But I…I hate that you had to lose someone first for this to even happen.
[ Like his very existence was somehow what led to Will’s death in the first place. ]
