Something

Woe is Henry.

 "A pity."

"What? That I backed away from doing something stupid like getting busted on by your damn baton? You'll have to find another way to make yourself feel better."

"Yes. You could have embraced your pain and worked past it honestly, rather than rely on medicine, be it human or rabbit."

"My life is stupid enough as it is now rabbit, I don't make it more stupid by feeling more pain than I already have. I'm not stupid after all."

"Merely a coward Henry. I offer you a different way and you are too fearful to even contemplate it. That is a pity. I thought I sensed something better in you."
