He hears what Edwin says. He also hears what Edwin doesn't say as he coils around Edwin, molten gold that surrounds and protects and, he hopes... heals. It's then that something hits him, not entirely pleasant but also not entirely unpleasant.
This... might be why he's a warden still.
And his heart hurts from that even as he loves Edwin so hard it would probably kill anyone else.

He still believes his brother means it. He believes John would do anything for the people he loves. Anything he could. Everything he could.
He also believes sometimes everything that can be done isn't enough. Sometimes you just lose.

That's all right, brother.
I can hope enough for both of us.
