thought you might, anyway.

cash.

[humanityresource]

I'm sorry to disappoint you.

cash.

[murphyy]

not disappointed, but you're lying to yourself if you're not thinking nothing sentimental at all.

cash.

[humanityresource]

It's not a lie, but it is why I'm still around.

cash.

[murphyy]

explain.

cash.

[humanityresource]

I'll indulge when we win.

cash.

[murphyy]

indulge in what, exactly? sentiment?

cash.

[humanityresource]

Yes, sentiment.

cash.

[murphyy]

til we're back from this mission or [...] til things are over whether that's in our favor or n?

cash.

[humanityresource]

Until things are over.

cash.

[murphyy]

wouldn't say it's the best idea you've ever had.

cash.

[humanityresource]

I don't regret it.

cash.

[murphyy]

what's no sentiment look like for you, exactly?

cash.

[humanityresource]

I'm not heartless.

cash.

[murphyy]

i know, but that doesn't answer my question.

cash.

[humanityresource]

I'm in charge of countless agents who are risking their lives for our cause, and they in turn pull in more souls who risk their lives. Every soul that dies in any division ended here in part because of Recruitment.

I don't have time for sentimentality.

cash.

[murphyy]

people wind up here 'cause they're not ready to give up on the world not ending like this. everyone who does knows that dying for the cause is something that might happen one day. [...] but i'd argue that everyone's got time for sentimentality sometimes. letting yourself feel your feelings is what makes us who we are, y'know?

cash.

[humanityresource]

Will you ease off if I tell you one thing?

cash.

[murphyy]

for now.

cash.

[humanityresource]

I'd be happy to smell a flower.

cash.

[murphyy]

me too, ishaan.

cash.

[humanityresource]

I hope we find one.

Now let's go. The transport is here.

cash.

[murphyy]

i'll keep an eye out.

you can sit on my lap (but only metaphorically).

cash.

[humanityresource]

I must politely decline, but if there's a seat next to you, save it for me.

cash.

[murphyy]

that's what i meant.
