Funny Miguel should had chosen that moment to ask cuz Dwight had just been starting to consider it. He nodded slowly for a moment, fully intending to give a nice short and sweet 'eh it sucked but will deal' answer. However, when he started speaking, that was far from what came out.
"Went about as well as an unexpected funeral and visit with the father you cut out of your life nearly five years ago could have." Dwight sighed as he stared into the glass in his hands for a minute.
"Found out he never told me about the Trouble because he thinks they are a curse from god. That you can pray your way out of them or be 'good enough to earn forgiveness' and escape them. That he firmly believes I brought this on myself, that I fully deserve this punishment, and am nothing but a walking bad luck charm and a danger to everyone..."
Dwight stopped, clenching his jaw to stop the flow of words from spilling out more. He lifted the mug to his lips and drank the rest of it down. Then sighed as the last bit slipped out anyways.
"And he's not wrong. My ex, my Ranger buddies, Tuck, Lizzie, Helen... so who knows who else is going to go down because of me."
