[There's not a lot he ever really wants from people, when he tells them about Glamorsprings, because sympathy always feels so cheap even if it comes from a good place. It's just that no one was there, not when it happened and not in the aftermath. No one was there when he learned it hadn't been a mistake at all, that it had been an even worse betrayal than Sazed just abandoning him. He'd made jokes about it and brushed it off, and Magnus had been too upset over his own offering to really push it, and Merle knew Taako too well to even try.
So he shrugs, assuming Cisco will either hear the rustle of fabric or feel the movement from where Taako's hands are in his hair, but he doesn't want to address it.]
I'm sure you will, you've got this far.
[It's easier to offer sympathy than to accept it, sometimes. And Taako believes what he's saying, too. The fact that Cisco is still kind despite a betrayal of that level speaks volumes about his character. It's more than Taako could ever manage.]
And yeah he did. Three fucking times we blew up before we figured out to grab the keycards and save us the trouble of cutting wires and shit.
