[ ... Well, this certainly isn't the first time Midnight's made anyone angry with the truth. Won't be the last, either.
Midnight sighs, scratches his head. ]
This has less to do with what I want, currently, and more to do with how we've arrived here, talking about this. I'm apologizing for... a lack of foresight, let's say. And for some uncertainty as to where I'd like to proceed from here. I've thought up a lot of plans about how I'd conduct myself in this place that have come up laughably short of the reality we've found ourselves in. I'm... unprepared, let's say. I don't think about the consequences as much as I should.
[ ... Why is he talking about this so honestly, suddenly? Possibly because he's realized he's lost control of the situation, mostly because it has now suddenly struck him how he's endeared himself to his doctor. It was completely unintentional. He'd intended to be a bit of a pill. ]
If... you wanted to become closer with me, I'm afraid I've been treating you rather poorly. In that sense, I think I treat most others poorly, but at the very least I do try to make certain that others know where they stand with me. I haven't given you the same clarity. I apologize for that. I just... supposed that it never mattered.
[ Perhaps he had wanted a professional relationship, but he doesn't know how to stop worrying for others in a personal way. Perhaps that's where he went wrong. Perhaps that's where it's always gone wrong. ]
