i don't know
i thought, last time we were experimented on, that i wanted to die instead of keep suffering through that lack of sleep. but i don't want that. i don't want that for any of us.
so for now i think... i'm not gonna give up, you know? i'm gonna keep helping in the medbay where i can, and just... you know, like you said. live without regrets.
besides, it's too early for the protag to die. you'll be fine
[It's barely even good enough to be called a joke, but it's an attempt at reassurance and lightening the mood.]
