I don't think you are a rotten sibling. Asriel, you were a young boy. Your decisions were not good ones, and I think you know deep down what is and is not forgivable, but I don't think you're a bad person
Just one that made the wrong decisions and acted out.

We have all made mistakes. I am not so cruel as to hold it against you.
Thank you for telling me this. I guess we do have some more in common than I thought.
[Not that he thinks it's good that they've both done hurtful things. But that's his way of expressing gratitude for the perspective.
He's not as bad as he could be. And honestly, neither is Asriel. Things have changed with them.]
