[He pauses, but it's not as if he's really thinking anything over. He knows his father isn't a bad father. He knows that even if he hasn't been there for those years growing up and been in the memories that his nanny takes place in, it's alright. He understands that.
And he certainly understands whenever his father's coming from, this strange reach for affection being even strange to himself. Part of him still really wants to push him away and make him feel bad for missing out, but the other part of him just wants to stop and embrace the time they have left before he has to move on with his life and focus more on other things.
So when he speaks, it seems to flow, almost as if admitting himself that maybe... just maybe, Eridan Ampora wasn't the best son in the world.]
No. No... I mean, you're only as bad of a father as I'm as bad of a son.
