Will takes the coin and looks it over, very interested in the sun motif. He huffs out a bit of a laugh when Sweeney talks about 'Story' versus 'Legend'- yeah, Will could see why he might want to go with that. He holds the coin back out for Sweeney to take.
And that was a lot of sharing, especially for someone who's part-Harkin, so Will decides to take over from there. "So when I was talking to you...before the Breach. I kept thinking my-" Ugh, he never knows what to phrase it as. "-condition was misfiring. Usually, it can be kind of a lot, especially if someone's not very clear with themselves on what they want, but- this was different. Sharp cuts. Different lives...I'm not explaining well." He shakes his head. "What I mean to say is, that makes sense."
He's silent for a moment, and Winston 'ruffs' quietly, politely asking for more pets from the two of them. Will obliges and continues. "I, uh, my condition is kind of that for humans. I tend to tug on other people, hold onto their lives and their selves. So we're not sure how long it might really take to fade. Probably a lot longer. Especially since I...don't want to lose my brother."
He sighs a bit and smiles wanly at Sweeney. "Can I call you Harkin? Is that...overstepping? Do you need the distance?" Because part of Will doesn't want it. He's had to force distance too much in his life.
