There's always still a chance unless you simply give up... You've always... [shakes his head, petting Ed's hair slightly since he didn't entirely duck away] Or perhaps it's only with this team. I wish you could treat us the way you treat others...
...But I don't know what can convince you to not to take every rebuff to heart... And you will be pushed away again. I've been pushed away more than once by everyone on this team. Often all one can do is be patient. Often you won't be told anything at all and all you can do is be as understanding and supportive as you're allowed. If every rebuff is taken to heart soon all you'll have inside is resentment, and it is difficult to be close to someone when your heart resents them because it colors everything, even when you don't mean it to.
If you simply went back to how you were getting along with Tide before the last few days, that would be enough. If you went to him not needing anything from him, but looking for the best in him, that would be enough.
