[That everything seems normal, at least. It's good to hear that Wesker's been doing tests on this too. He'll obviously be keeping an eye on it for any changes.]
I really hope it doesn't end up becoming a problem. Please keep me updated on it! Hopefully it won't give you any cause for concern!
I'd like to know if it really was Retrospec's doing. I can't help but be worried about how you'll take that. I do want to know if the situation becomes concerning, but I'm worried about your well-being too.
[He drops his gaze to stare at his hand instead. It's understandable that Wesker doesn't want to think about that possibility. He wouldn't want to either.]
Ja. I don't mind sharing my memories with you, even if they're things I don't want to think about for too long.
["Everything will eventually make sense" has more or less become his mantra with regards to his memories. Whether that's true or not doesn't really matter, right now it's what he has to believe to get through this.]
And of course I'm concerned. I don't want you to suffer because of anything Retrospec's doing.
[We are in so much denial, it's a little obscene.]
...I don't know if I'd say I'm suffering.
[He admittedly doesn't know what to call what he's doing, but "suffering" seems a bit strong.]
I'm...afraid, I think, to some extent. But it isn't debilitating, and I'll manage eventually. It's just a bit much for the time being.
[...And apparently he is going to be the most clinical-sounding person in the world when it comes to his tone while discussing feelings, but at least he's discussing them at all. Surely that counts for something.]
[Hey, you're admitting to being afraid, that's something! It takes a lot for him to admit his feelings in general, so he gets it.]
I know you will. I know you'll be able to handle whatever Retrospec throws at you, but I understand that it's all a little much to take in. I'll be here though - even if there's nothing I can do but distract you from it. I'm good at that, at least!

[He'll finish up what he's doing, though, with regards to the bandages; there you go.]
Try not to move it too much until it's healed.
no subject
Ja, I'll be careful.
[He rests his hand on his knee once Wesker's done.]
...If you do determine that it's Retrospec's doing you'll tell me, ja?

I don't want to consider the possibility in too much depth right now. Do you understand?
no subject
Ja, I do. My apologies.

...It's not something I know how to handle.
[He shakes his head again.]
Being worked up over it isn't going to help anything, nor will it change what's already happened. I know that.
But I don't...know what to do. With any of this.
[...It's not much, but it's probably the most honest he's been about any of this since it started.]

[In his own way, anyway.]
And I do understand that you're concerned about me.

You do still have my apologies regarding your hand, either way.

Ja, I do! You don't have to worry about me, I'll be careful with it until it's healed up!
