[Mello is very much aware of the concept of killing another person being a fundamentally bad thing - he's just also embraced the idea that bad things are sometimes necessary in service of the greater good. He knows he is a criminal, and he embraced that identity years ago, but he hasn't done the things he has because he enjoys them - he's done them because they were necessary. Just as he believed killing Sharon was necessary.]

[The word of gratitude feels clumsy in his mouth, so infrequently used.]
