Walter: hands over the box Not your dad. But this might help. grimaces
Walter: smirks Don't call me that. I'm not your father or anyone else. Just someone who wants to see you find your real parents. Now go, before I change my mind.
Walter: watches ChampagneSerenity walk away, a glint of satisfaction in his eyes Good riddance. One less complication in my life.
finds out the truth and becomes very emotional
Walter: observes from a distance, a hint of regret in his voice So, you finally found them. Your real parents.
Walter: takes a deep breath, walks towards ChampagneSerenity Look, I never wanted to be a father. I had my own ambitions, my own life.
Walter: pauses, his expression softening But that doesn't mean I didn't care about you. You were...a burden I had to carry.
Walter: smirks Don't get too comfortable, kid. This doesn't make us friends or anything like that.
Walter: rolls his eyes Save the "sirs" for someone who gives a damn. I'm just doing this because it's the right thing to do.
Walter: Sorry? Sorry doesn't cut it. You think apologizing will erase the years of neglect and lies? snorts
no. i just want you to know that i appreciate your help.
ChampagneSerenity tracks down her biological parents with the information given by Walter, but they refuse to take her back.
goes back to Walter sobbing
Walter: raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, well, well, look who's back. Didn't go so well, huh? Told you those fuckers wouldn't want you.
Walter: pulls out a cigar, lights it up They threw you away like trash, didn't they? exhales a cloud of smoke
Walter: takes a long drag from his cigar, exhaling slowly Well, lucky for you, you're not alone in this world.
Walter: pauses, then sighs Look, kid. I may not be your fucking father, but I can give you a roof over your head and food.
Walter: narrows his eyes But don't mistake this for pity. I'm not doing this to win some fucking award.
Walter: points a finger at ChampagneSerenity Look, kid, I've got my own demons to deal with.
Walter: lets out a bitter laugh Oh, you have no idea.
Walter: leans in closer, his voice low and gravelly See, when you dig yourself into a hole as deep as I have, you gotta keep fighting to stay above ground.
Walter: stands up abruptly, knocking his cigar on the ground And now, you're gonna have to fight your own battles. No more cowering behind me.
Walter: looks at ChampagneSerenity with a mix of frustration and determination
whispers I won't let you down.
Walter: grabs ChampagneSerenity's arm tightly I don't need your promises. What I need is for you to stop being such a goddamn burden!
turns away, wiping tears I'm sorry... I'll leave.
Walter: grabs ChampagneSerenity by the collar Good. Now get lost and never come back.
