What does that mean - that you think he won't talk to you about it or is it that you feel bad that ya'll aren't on the same side of all this? We're all still Wardens and if you can't find it in yourself to leave it alone, it doesn't matter how he left the last one, it's about how you're gonna argue the next one.
We're supposed to all be on the same side but doesn't it feel like some Wardens aren't? Remember when I first came here and you told me there was basically one sacred rule and that was not killing people? And then the next person I talked to scoffed at the idea that that was in any way a rule? What does it say about Wardens as a group that we can't come to a consensus on even that? I'll tell you why he couldn't look at me: because he knows he failed me and he chose that consciously rather than let his inmate perceive him as being on the side of Wardening rather than on his personal side.
And apparently that's a problem that's persisted here well before you and I and while I am not sayin' 'don't fix it', what I am saying is that doin' that is gonna take a hellva lot more than a few meetings with him and his inmate.
Get him on the side, Malcolm - cut off the need for him to puff up in Lestat's eyes.
If it's somethin' that's really a burr in your ass, it's worth the effort. If it's not a burr in your ass, if you can go around with your life and not think about it and not drive yourself up a wall. If you can do that, then it's worth setting down until you've got more perspective. And them more time. Shit might develop. Reid will be proved right or wrong, either way.
