[ They did talk about it. Zell remembers it coming up that night in the store. How Jim kept trying to change topics or distract him. Him actually bringing it up on his own speaks volumes. Moving his hand down to Jim's shoulder as he breaks away to maintain some form of contact. He really wants to just pull him back in, but doesn't want to push him into a corner. Doesn't want to force him close if he doesn't want it. ]
I couldn't have saved the world. [ He agrees. ] But I wasn't alone. Neither are you.
[ Zell had support. Had people he could depend on if he did mess up. Like he has messed up before. ]
You just thought? What? [ He wants Jim to continue with what he's saying. He wants to hear it all in case his boyfriend clamps up again and puts distance between them. Before Jim can start deflecting again. ]
