[He gives the puppet his full attention, not wavering for a moment as he speaks. Maybe, before today, if Wanderer had told him this, he wouldn't of cared. Dismissed him, made fun of him, waved his hand as if his pain and suffering didn't matter in the slightest to him at all.
But it's different when one feels it for themselves. Those intense feelings of betrayal, of sadness and suffering. It's another window into explaining to Childe why Scaramouche had absconded with the gnosis all that time ago. He knew what he was, that the gnosis was something important to him- that's why he wasn't surprised when he disappeared with it initially. But this gives him so much more food for thought, and he'd only seen tiny flashes of memory.]
Oh? Tried to what, now?
[He'll push on that. He'd like to know what he tried, because it's shocking to hear Scaramouche, though he seems changed, admit that there were lives he cared for. Never would he of thought that prior to now, but after that, he believes him. Not a single word out of the puppet's mouth has been a lie.]
Save them?
[Though, the "how" he could of saved them is so much different than the reality of what he tried to do. Childe isn't sure how Wanderer could have saved anyone from the Doctor- he was a Harbinger, the second of which, powerful beyond imagination. Stopping him? He doubts that was even possible.]
