This is really great. I like that his kids get a chance to see how much it really was about love, and how much he loved them, and that no one was meant to get hurt.

Excellent work.

Yeah, I was going for a readjustment of their very skewed memories of what happened. Glad I succeeded. Thank you!

Ruth needs hugs. And yeah, it's... it's just a situation with no good outcome.

Thank you very much!

This is so sad, and so lovely at the same time. I feel like this is a point where the children can really, truly start healing from what happened, even if it was so long ago that they don't even realize they need healing from it.

Yup, this is the spot where things start getting better for all of them. Small mercies, small healing.

Thank you.
