Varian's inadvertently triggered enough of Danny's memories to recognise when it's happening by now. His brow pinches together in worry when he noticed it. He's scared to think what of his sorry tale would have brought a memory of his friend's past life to his mind. He opens his mouth to ask when Danny asks him that question.
"No, I-" he pauses, because it was only a few months since he tried to race into the dinosaur park by himself to fix his portal mistake and Danny deserves more than a lie, he sucks in a breath. "I mean- most of the time I don't. It still...trips me up sometimes. Like with the portal. But- but I'm trying to get better at remembering that."
Because he does have people here who care about him. It's made a difference.
"It's better at home, too. I mean- I got dad back. And-" well, he doesn't have his father here, and that hurts a lot. "And I know I have so many people here who care about me, and I-I'm grateful for it. I just... I don't like myself very much, and I guess I'm still getting used to the fact people like me even if I don't...really feel like I deserve it sometimes."
