[It really doesn't. Dick still won't ever be able to forgive him for what he did, but that flood - over a year ago now, apparently long enough for the Barge to cycle back around to whatever caused the disturbance for a second time - did a lot to open his eyes to the logic behind what he'd done, and how far gone Slade had really been in that moment.
It doesn't change what he did, but he does get it a little more than he did. And he feels sorry for him, more than anything else.]
Yeah. [He's still keeping it simple, because understanding doesn't necessarily mean spilling your guys to someone, and to be honest, he's still not really sure how he feels about walking away from all of this. He knows he should, but let's be honest, here. If he was good at knowing when to just walk away, he'd never have been here in the first place.]
