[ For a second he misses a letter. He knows he'd do anything for family. Would have saved his parents if he could, would have kept Josh from falling, would never have taken him out on the lake that night. (Did that all happen?) For a family, to have one, one that cares for him, means something...
It's family that gives Alex conviction, no matter how broken his own may be. The idea that comes into his head at Walter's words has him lifting him head, jaw set tight and eyes sharp, the pain and fracturing that was there a second ago mostly gone now. His voice is steady when he responds. ]
I'd never replace what I have.
[ His father and mother, they had loved him, even if circumstances didn't allow them to show it. He'd seen it in their last moments, in their pain and anguish. (Did it even happen?) And even without that, Alex has Josh, who he'd never give up. Never replace. Ever.
He doesn't need whatever Walter's offering. Nothing good comes of Silent Hill or those who reside in it. ]
