I thi~ink you probably can't, and you're just saying that. [He shrugs loosely.] A shame, really. I'm sure something like that could be useful.
[He sounds more casual about it than he actually feels. He'd actually feel a bit safer if that were the case, since he's still not trusting his own mind completely... but he's not going to tell Waver that.
At the demand that he take care of a laundry bill of all things, he lets out an amused, musical little sound, trying desperately not to show how truly awful he feels about the implications.]
I can pay it. Now that I'm considered the sole heir of the family, I suspect I could get my parents to pay for just about anything. [There is a lot of sadness and cynicism, as well as gratitude and love all at once behind that statement - but it probably doesn't quite come off like that.]
But you know, here's the thing... I'm not going to stop looking for my brother. Not until the day I die, or he is found - whichever comes first, do you understand? [His voice is for a moment low with intensity and obsession, before it picks up somewhat again.] But all I was doing out in the wilderness was killing myself too fast and letting down a lot of people. So I have no intention of going back, see?
