...I understand. We'll find out on our own, sooner or later.

Then it doesn't really matter anymore.

If the man can't turn back, whether or not it is selfish is irrelevant. It's going to happen either way.

(Goes under a lamp, folding out her solar panels, and kinda droops over. Boy, she was tired...)

(Lays beside her.)

(Smiles a little, then dematerializes in a shower of sparks.)

And that's a wrap. G'night!

It's what friends do, Roger.

{Great!}

-winces to himself-

{Yeah, ah... see you then?}

Yes. But there is a... comfort, in starting something for the right reason, to find that you have not strayed from your path at the end of it. A victory made for the sake of it, for personal glory and power... such a victory would be hollow, and the kingdom that rises from it would be hollower still. I want to know that I am still doing the right thing.

-And quietly heading back into her room-

-He tenses up at her hug, like he's trying to come off as his usual laid-back posture, and failing miserably-

-His voice starts breaking up-

...I can't-....I can't let this happen anymore....

...I have to get better!....

{Well— y'know... this.}

-smiles a little at that-

Hm. Perhaps I'm just a sentimental fool. One who'd like his bloodshed prettied up and called something other than murder. Well... I ought not to make any excuses.

Thank you. You've been of help to me.

Roger, these things... they happen. Sometimes it's not anything anyone can do to stop them, and all you can do is just... damage control.

{Sure, 'course you will. I mean... well, it's with you and all, so that's a given.}

Heh. I've still got it, of course. That is only a fact.

Well... what of you? You have listened to my prattling long enough, I'm sure. What troubles you?

I see others. They all seem so pleased, all the time.

Yet from all the violence... things trouble them.

Why are they so happy when things trouble them when I am not?

I know!...I can't-...I can't do that, and that's the problem!!...

...You-...You're the only one who can use those cubes right now, right?....If something happened to you, after we went to sea....then what would happen to Arty, and Soldier Girl, and-...

....I gotta do this....I can't just stand around and let nice words and hugs make me feel good, anymore....I need to learn, and get better, or else everything that jerk says about me is right!!

-Caster's shoulder feels wet-

...If-...If I can't do anything for a single member of my crew in need....then-...

-He just covers his eyes and cries-

...How can I-...call myself a captain!?....
