(Newt can't help but chuckle lightly at her outburst.) Then you're not a bad person either. You know, I have no recollection of it but before my memory was swiped, I technically was helping WICKED. They selected intelligent children from across the world and we were all helping them. Sometimes we help bad people and we don't mean to. I think as long as you genuinely wish you hadn't or that if you really didn't want to support something awful then. Well. That's all that matters, Maketh. The past- that's in the past, you know? I don't look at that. I look at how you are now and I know you now would never do anything awful like any of that. Maybe you ought to start forgiving yourself too.
(Oh, Maketh, you definitely did not corrupt his innocence. He was a seventeen, maybe eighteen, year old boy. He was already down the path of being corrupted. Especially since Peter himself wasn't the best influence. He'd gotten Newt into smoking cigarettes. And you know, other stuff.........That totally might have happened after their conversation but details. At least Newt had drunk before he'd even come to Hadriel.
And he totally does remember their conversation.
He snorts a bit.) There really was a lot of tequila. And vodka.
Ah. Thank you, by the way. For talking to me. (Because yes he is going to bring this up.) I know it might've seemed awkward to you but. I literally don't know what I'm doing a lot of the time and having someone to talk to like that had really helped me.
