Unfortunately, the type of secret Pullo kept is like double-edged sword. When it is revealed, it is usual that the other person feels betrayed. "You haven't told me that you know!!" Whatever a person in the Pullo's position did this for, a person in Vorenus' position is not liable to forgive it easily.
Oh, but see, here again, I think Pullo was incredibly hurt - he SWORE ON HIS MOTHER'S BONES - we know how much his mother meant to him - and Vorenus completely discounted and didn't believe him after all, so he was all "OK, fine, you jerk, you want to believe whatever you want to believe" so he says the most ridiculous thing possible
I don't know. I am not trying to criticize Pullo (because it was indeed a very difficult situation), but saying something like this either means Pullo doesn't understand Vorenus's mental state (and we saw it is not the case because Pullo was saying how he know Vorenus wants to die) or it means he just had that urge to hurt the other person which everyone has once in a while in an argument like that. I am not criticizing Pullo, but it could have been better if he just hit Vorenus. Or something.
I do think that Vorenus WANTED to push Pullo away. But ... he hurt Pullo very badly, I think, and I don't like that he did that.
Oh, I think they hurt each other pretty badly. I think Vorenus believed what Pullo said about Niobe. I have seen people in the break-down state believe even sillier things.
