A pause. He wouldn't, and they both know it. He's asking for mercy on this because it's him. It's Them.
Which seems to be about grand fucking all right now. He knows Edward is angry about The British, he knows that, but this angry? God, it's so fucking petty. Yes, he's asking for a special condition and no, he probably doesn't deserve it, and that just fucking smarts something ugly.
He tried. He did. But Edward will always, ultimately, win. That's part of why he's so fantastic.
"Edward..." it's just pathetic at this point. He is pathetic. He is pathetic because he has been praying for this. For his captain. For normalcy. He can't get it and then not be grateful. Not do everything in his power to make the best of it. Embrace it. Embrace him.
This is a reminder, Izzy realizes, of who he really is and who he needs to be. Who he has always been. He's strayed. He will choose to be grateful, and cut out all those weak parts of him which have been revealing themselves these last five months. They are not welcome.

"You're right. I'm sorry. I'll see to it."
