[He wishes he could just and say that yes, absolutely, Syr would bounce back. Truth be told, he's NEVER seen Syr this angry. But he truly doesn't thing it's going to be the disaster Trahearne must be imagining.]

I can't say. That's gonna be up to him.

I don't think that changes whether he's owed an apology or not. But I... I understand hesitation when we get scared, sir. We can't always make amends right away on a battlefield, either, and hesitation can be a trait that hurts a lot of people, just as much as recklessness or impatience. Maybe it's similar here, too.

[Still, if he had to choose anything...]

Listen to him, if he chooses to talk about it. Like... truly listen.

Don't blame yourself, don't blame him, don't blame that argument or the auction or anything. Don't fill out that survey in your head again trying to find answers to his problems, nothing like that.

Just try to hear what he has to say. I think that'll do a lot of good for both of you.
