This isn't about what it means to me, it's about getting your portrait back.

[Why does Toby have to school Dorian about something like this?]

Just because you don't value remorse or repentance shown in apologies doesn't mean you can't try it yourself, especially when there's the very real possibility of something happening to it, something happening to you.

[And that's what Toby's so worried about, because he loves Dorian so very much.]
