[Of course he's not, but Raylan isn't going to push. Sometimes telling yourself and others you're okay is the only way to actually find a way to Okay in the first place.]
That makes sense. That's a lotta life happening at once. [Raylan could only imagine and even then, through a slightly romanticized glass.]
I wish I could say that was surprising. That's happened to him here, ya know. Got himself sliced open pretty bad for it. He's got a few more tools in his toolbox now. Getting better is about being able to get through the swings life give you, even if you stumble doing it.
I know I've said it before but you're a good brother Kendall. Y'all are lucky to have each other.
[ Kendall doesn't feel like a good brother. He doesn't feel like much of a brother at all. ]
I just feel like I fucked all this up. I feel like there was a better way to tell him. And I still kind of think I shouldn't have told him at all because it upset him. He doesn't need to know, it's just something that happened to me that didn't happen to him and might not ever happen to him.
Except it's absolutely going to happen to him. No matter if it happens the way it happened to you or in some other way. One of those eventuality things, and it was already gonna rock the four of you.
It's still gonna hurt him, either way, you can't help that.

That isn't your fault.
