There is no way to know what he took from the situation, and what, if anything he wants from it- you wanted closure of some ilk, forgiveness or a reason for forgiveness to be unnecessary. It doesn't always work that way, and ultimately, you have to find your own peace.
It is hard to accept an apology for abuse- the abuser gets off the hook like the snap of fingers, where the torment (whether it be physical or otherwise) the abused suffered lasted longer, and the amount of time they were haunted or impeded by the memories of the abuse varies greatly. It is hard to imagine someone coming up to you and saying, "Hey sorry about robbing you at gunpoint," and just forgiving them for the terror of the moment, the things lost, and the fear of it happening again. The abused find peace within themselves- it helps to know there is remorse, but ultimately, it is their own strength that heals them.
So you've faced some dark part of yourself, you've owned your actions, voiced your regret, and are working on helping other victims of similar (and different) dark parts of humanity. You get to decide your own penance for this- anything else is out of your hands, and you must accept that: your own helplessness.
Love,
Inky
SF0 is still in beta, right? So we're all your beta-testers, and Lincoln was just doing some fancy bug testing for you! No worries!
You'll max out your vote-giving credit cards!
Dear Players,
I will be happy to transport your blue ribbons to the finish line.

Dear Dax,
Bring me my dinosaur, you scurvy dog. I've got the fastest ship this side of the Mississippi. Actually, that's a lie, but I'll tackle you outright if I don't see me crowned dino in me troves by the night of the Journey. Savvy?
Lub,

It's.... nonstandard. The first number has 7 digits, the second 10, the third 9, the fourth 11. Binary is traditionally 8 digits.
Blueberry is correct. We're being rude. I apologize, Scotbotmosh.
Dear Burn,
Me.

Man, that sprout had the best afternoon ever. It's going to tell all of the other sprouts, and they're Never Going To Believe It.
Dear Palindromedary,
I may have mentioned, in my last missive, that this ought not be considarrrrred a comeback. Savvy? Aye, I may have no man, nor a canal, but let it ne'er be suggested that Imogen Tolman has no plan. Madam, I'm Inky.
Love,
Inky
Postscriptum: It would not be foolhardy, to suggest I enjoy your "handle", Palindromedary dear.
