"I'll remember that," he sighs after a moment. He's not going to argue it, for bringing up what happened would draw attention to it and that's the last thing he wants. If he's forgiven, then fine. He shouldn't be, but fine.

"I just hope it doesn't happen again. We still don't know what caused it."
