I nod, then take another look at him, gripping him gently by the shoulders. "Shotarou. Don't beat yourself up over this. Come with me if you're up for it, otherwise stay here, but kicking yourself because you think you're at fault can come later. You have any idea how valuable it is that you were here and you're able to tell me what happened?"
Obviously I wish Joe could be sitting in the damn bed right now, safe, recuperating. Being with Basco isn't high on my list of ten things I want my PTSD-y, injured son to be experiencing right now.
But our lives have never been safe, there could be some good out of this, and it's not this Shotarou's fault.
