"Maybe you can take this time to think of stuff that confused you and get some answers before we shut it off." she shrugs.

Could make for a less confusing life.

"Everything confused me."

He says softly, frowning.

"...and I feel as though it will do so again when this is gone."

"Well then, is it okay if I take advantage of this to ask you something?" she asks, her tone suggesting it was a serious question.

"...of course."

He looks at her, seemingly sensing the determination.

"How are you?" she starts, looking at him with more concern.

"Since the incident in Europe, I mean...you haven't really talked about it since."

He went into a bit of shock, but after that? Was he just keeping it all in? He's not good with emotion, if anything.

Mark looks down towards the floor, unable to meet her gaze.

"...I killed someone. One of ours, who clearly didn't deserve it. I don't know how I can be okay with that."

That's a fair feeling.

"You can't be okay with that. Otherwise something would be wrong with you." she says, not entirely sure how to comfort him. If he was bad with emotions, she was bad with being comforting.

"I don't know how to make it right."

He shakes his head.

"...I don't think I can."

"He was trying to kill me, Mark." she says, knowing it doesn't make it better but...

"It's not like you did it for nothing, at least..."

"...that's true..."

He frowns more.

"If it came to it... I would do the same thing again."

She takes his hand.

"Then I guess as far as you're concerned, you did the right thing. It might not be something pleasant, but it's what you felt you had to do."

"It is..."

He nods slowly, then looks up at her.

"But I still feel terrible."

"I'm sure you do. Killing someone is a big deal..." she says softly.

"He wasn't on our side anymore." she frowns.

Yeah, brainwashing isn't fair. But it doesn't stop the fact they're ready to kill you.

"No, he wasn't."

Mark nods.

He still feels bad.

She looks around awkwardly before giving him a hug.

And then patting his back.

"Take your time with it."

It's the best advice her moms could give her whenever she was upset over something.

"I'm... going to try."

He nods.

"Have you ever done something similar?"

"I've had a hand in indirectly causing death, if that's what you mean..."

Killed anyone herself? Nope.

"How did you deal with it?"

Maybe it'll give him some insight.

"I don't really think about it." she shrugs, like it's a lame response.

"They keep telling us we're at war. People are going to die. I just try to look the other way..."

"....I see."

He nods again.

"Just try and put it out of your mind."

"I mean..that's just what works for me. I can deal with the crisis of it all afterwards."

Maybe.

Maybe she'll just keep ignoring it until she's used to it.
