I'd say right now he's confused. In contemplating his happy ending, he realizes he would be happiest if he had never lost his child in the alternate timeline. Since he can't think of anything that would make him happier, he feels conflicted about Zdenka.

Honestly, I just sat down to write a tie-in, which started with Hat just being guilty about the LLers that were hit by the narrative bomb. One thing I love about the PV is the characters sometimes just write themselves, and this is a case where Hatman and Sorceress decided the story for me.

There will be various arguments debated in the conclusion.

Me too!
