Mark didn't know exactly what part of what Sam said did it - or whether it was all of it - but he suddenly welled up with tears again, putting his hands up over his face to try to stop it. He didn't know how the hell he was supposed to cope with all this at once when he hadn't really been in the best headspace before it. Gen and Sam were right to call him out on it, especially when he hadn't really realised prior to Sam falling ill that his own mental health had been waning. Justin and Sash had been tracking okay, though Justin had been doing a lot of soul-searching since meeting Alexis, and ending up with a movie offer on the table. Mark had been missing Gen and struggling with the whole covid thing. He had been case consulting remotely via video link but he hadn't had the same level of work he was used to. "Fuck, I never meant to let you down, Sammy. The one time you fucking need me."
