I'M SORRY. This got buried!

Mask...?

[ Walt echoed, a little horrified by the prospect. ]

I thought the straitjacket was bad enough. And the sedation. Though the first time he handcuffed me. I suppose that was generous by comparison.

[ A beat. ]

Why you would say any of that was justified when you were framed is beyond me, Will. How you can just forgive and forget?

[ Because Walter White can't -- as you soon find out in only a week's time. ]

IT HAPPENS!

[He goes quiet, digesting the additional bits thrown out. Asking White for more details might be a bad idea, though, might be a little bit biased. It's not like he can use them on (against) Chilton, not so soon, not since Crane. And if he asks after, he might seem eager to build up ammunition against Chilton, too, which is not really how he wants to be seen. So he's grateful for the question, and his short, huffed laugh is more amused than bitter. There is a barked edge that keeps it from being joyful.]

He didn't put me in there, Mister White. He simply did what he needed to be done, took the precautions to keep himself and others safe. None of it was his fault. There's nothing to forgive. [So forgiving and kind, except oh, no wait.] Holding any ill will [heh] against him detracts from who I should be blaming, and that...isn't helpful.

[If he just holds all the blame and guilt to Hannibal, it'll be easier to take him down, right? If he can focus completely on Hannibal being a Douchebag he can really be effective in bringing his ass to the ground, go Team Doesn't Understand Forgiveness!!!]

[kingpawn]

I suppose that's a good way to look at things.

[ Not necessarily one Walt will ever be able to agree with. But good for Will to be the bigger man when it comes to Chilton. ]

But I suppose I should let you go. Thank you for having this conversation with me. Perhaps we can sit down for a cup of coffee when I return to Heropa?

[infomodder]

I'm not one to turn down a good cup of coffee.

[Which isn't difficult to achieve with Will. He wants very few things from coffee: heat and caffeine. And if it's not hot enough, that's easy to fix. So basically:]

Sure, just let me know when's good for you and I'll be there. Looking forward to it, Mister White, and I hope things look up for you soon.

[You could have had this from him, Walter, but now you're more like this WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALLLLLLLLLLLLL]
