[ As far as Josh is concerned, Henry represents everything about Aidan that they've been trying to avoid, the worst kind of backsliding - so it's bizarre to have anything in common with him, or have even the smallest bit of respect for what he's saying.
So even if it's there, there's no way he's going to express any sympathy on that front. The lack of criticism (asking how exactly Henry screwed up, how he made a bigger mess of the one Aidan - and Josh - had already made with the other vampires) is as good as it gets. He's not ready to talk feelings with you, man, but he knows better than to mock them. ]
Was there anything else, or are we done? [ Dismissive, but it's said without much hostility. He can't pretend there isn't some warped comfort in talking to someone from back home about people who matter, even if it's very nearly the last person he'd like. ]
