There's a pause, and then he turns her a serious look, one that says there's a lot going on that he isn't saying -

"And that's a better state than the world I left behind."

His eyes are narrowed, but it's not a look of anger - just a tired one. "I get that you don't want to be here. I don't think anyone can blame you for that. But I just walked into this situation, I don't know shit about it, and asking me to pass judgement on it with little to no information isn't particularly fair. Putting it on me to fix it is definitely unfair."

(Fixing the unfixable is what he was made to do, and it wasn't fair then, either.)

"And I don't do living for other people's expectations. For better or worse."
