I offered myself, Athelstan. You were in need, and we are friends. I could not have lived with myself if you had harmed a child, or any other innocent, when I was there readily enough. I took a gamble, and for it, we both came out the better.
I am well, and you were able to regain your control. For the suffering my offer caused you, I am sorry. I will say as much when we see each other again.
Would you come to my rooftop? Is tonight too soon for you?
[ Enjolras wants this out of the way, wishes to reassure the other so much as he can- and get the ugly anger he feels for Athelstan having left him in such a state instead of killing him out of the way. ]
