That argument really doesn't go down well with Otto. The idea that his friend is broken beyond fixing, that he was never right to begin with... If he were to accept that, what would that say him about him? What would that say about anyone going through similar struggles? It's true that some afflictions can never heal, but he also knows there's kindness and remorse inside Norman. That has to mean something.

But he doesn't know how to put it into words. He doesn't want to dismiss how Norman feels in this moment.

"... Well. Regardless, I'll be here."
