I don't blame you, Thad. Even then I didn't. The only one to blame for my death is me. Because I knew what was going to happen, and I still did it.
[A part of him is pretty sure it was the inaccessibility of the Speed Force while it had been trapped that had pushed Inertia so far, but, well, he can't be totally certain. Nobody can.]
Whatever happens after this, if we get out of here, that's different. But here...well, if you want to do this without playing by either grandpa's rules, we can. Or I can just ignore the fact that you're here and just keep doing what I've been doing. But I'm not the only one from home who might remember you.
