The words are harsher than the actual feelings and thoughts behind them, but thanks to the link, for once, instead of coming off harsher than he really means them, they come off as gentle as they're meant to sound. There's no malice being projected behind them.
It's easy, after you've lost someone and seen the worst of people, to want the whole world to hurt. That's how it fel - aagh, I hate this telepathic link thing.
It's hard not to just...blurt.
I just mean that I understand it like...mentally. I don't understand it like - um, just imagine me thumping a hand to my chest because I can't actually do it right now.
He doesn't understand it on an emotional level. In his gut. He doesn't understand how it could...progress, from just the normal pain someone felt to action, to enough hate to destroy the whole world. He has plenty of hate in him and even he doesn't have enough hate for that.
That's not how I dealt with it, comes out in the smallest whisper, one that wasn't even meant to be thought aloud, let alone projected. Next comes the whisper, ohgod I hope she didn't hear that.
