[Accelerator almost wishes John kept his attention on the monitors. Not because he isn't glad to see him (he is, even if he has trouble admitting it), but because this is going to be a difficult conversation and it has him... more than a little nervous, honestly.
That's why he's suddenly getting abrasive at John's response.]
Shut up. [He's spitting that out before he can stop himself, and he may as well lean into it. What else is he supposed to do? Calm down and act rationally? He just died.] You did a lot, don't fucking understate it.
[Sorry John, you aren't getting off lightly. Going out there into the fog and hauling a dead body all the way back here is a lot and it needs to be acknowledged. He inhales deeply, trying to temper his tone a little bit, though he still glares.]
... Thanks. Waking up out there would have been a pain.
