[Pavlova mentions those ties, and rather than shirk away, Silent Salt cannot help but be curious. What did they look like now that they were no longer clouded with sheer hate? It was true that he still held some blame toward them, but...
He pushes the thought from his head. Another time. Or perhaps never, if Pavlova saw fit not to speak with him further.]
Should there be a point to an apology? [His head cants.] At least beyond offering a balm to the hurt. If you mean to say that I am doing this because I want something from you, you are sorely mistaken.
I only wish to make even a fraction of headway in righting the wrongs wrought by my hand.
Apologies... don't hold much weight in the Garden.
[ He winces slightly. No, he's seen many apologies fall on deaf ears. If it was to the point you had to apologize, it meant you were likely headed to a fate worse than death already. ]
I guess I'm just not used to them being any more than placating... And knowing you locked us up just confuses me. I don't know if you hate me or not, or what I'm supposed to do.
[Because he never bothered to visit, did he? To investigate for himself and explore the rumors there. No, he had left those of the Garden as he had the others.
He shakes his head.]
While I do not know what I feel for my fellow Beasts anymore, I know that I do not hate you. And I do not wish for you to believe that I have any ill intent toward you, either.
