I've broken him. Abstractly I understand that I've done something wrong, but... it's hard to feel that kind of subtle emotion these days.

I'm glad I still have the larger, more powerful feelings. Certainly rage is a feeling that I still have ample access to.

I try to be nice to him. I think he's happy. Almost definitely happier than he would be if he wasn't here.

Still, I've broken him. 

Maybe if I knew he'd last longer, I would feel bad for doing so.
