[It's been a while since Scar has openly addressed the network. He has had little reason or want to.

But it's late, and he's back to thinking about all that's happened in the past few weeks, and things are more like they were back home than they ever have been. He's more alone than ever.]

I made a mistake, recently. It changed something that cannot be fixed. In retrospect, none of it is a surprise, but the loss has affected me far more than I thought it would.

[He doesn't know what he's asking for, or if he's even asking for anything.]

I never realized how much I didn't want things to go back to the way they were until they did. I would prefer going home. It would be for the best.

[Regardless of what going home actually means.]

Do you know if they agree with your view of things? That is, that whatever happened can't be fixed and that you shouldn't try.

They do, as far as I can tell.

"As far as I can tell"? So you're just observing, you haven't talked to them about it?

We have not spoken, no.

I understand that this is probably presumptuous of me to say so, but I think that's something you should do just to make sure.

A lot of people make mistakes just because they assume something of the other people around them instead of asking. If this involves you and someone else, then communicating becomes all the more important.

I may be wrong. I only know what little you've written yourself.
