[Yeah, the lad's still strung out about it. He's not really surprised. He'll just have to take this nice and slow, really.]

...I see. I was hoping to talk to you about that incident at some point.

I will tell you up front that I was not happy to hear about it, and that you won't get off scott-free. However, you may relax. I assure you that I will not be flying off the handle with you.

In fact, if you still have your worries, I'm quite prepared to talk with you about what you saw. If it will help put your mind at ease, anyway. I know those matters are... not pleasant ones.
