I know the correct answer is, "It's complicated," but if you could only choose one answer, why is Ed crying in his final scene in S1 ep. 10?

@Circe bc obviously both, but in that scene the grief would be overwhelming and intermingling

@sweveris @Circe for the first time I'm wondering if he's specifically regretting not going through with the plan to take stede's life and place (like he is having many thoughts about many things. But maybe that is one of them.)

@treesofgreen @Circe ohhh yesssss. I ended up voting for the first one bc while Stede was fun and great and made Ed happy, the cut from *that *euphoria to the immediate devastation of being back to square one again in a life he didn't want, and deeply, *deeply* unhappy- ow.
And the weight of *that* combined with the failure of Stede not wanting him could absolutely make him wish for him to never have deviated from the plan
