Then I'm a bad guy, Gregor. Is that what you want? I did wrong, 'cause I wouldn't let that girl kill herself in front of me? I tried sitting back. I spent the first half of the day focusing on the murders. Just doing everything I could to shut down thinking about the outcome.
[ he's too tired to be angry. he looks up at the ceiling ]
I still get judged and turn noses. So, what I learned is I'm going to keep doing what I want. The outcome for me is the same. I still lose everyone.
You're jumping to put words in my mouth, there, bud, I'm just trying to tell you what was going on-! Nobody's saying you're a bad guy, here, just that maybe we don't jump right to unconsciousness being the answer!
It makes it easier to hear tough news. It's like, on the one hand, maybe I fuckup a lot. On the other hand, here's Greg, who's--you know--hot. Saying so.
[ this is stated all very casually, especially compared to the emotion of a moment ago ]
I'd be a lot more annoyed hearing it from someone else.
[ mentioning they have big showers would just be hamming it up. let gregory continue to percolate. he might come up with something more interesting than no nodd we shouldn't for ethical and logical reasons! imagine what a good day greg could have if he said yes, I care not for my personal safety. ]

I didn't know it would knock her out like that.
[ his body is a weapon :( ]
I wanted her off her feet, not with cranial damage.

[ !!!! nodd stops himself. clasps his hands normally now. piously. ]
Nothing. It would be nothing I'm going to do. But this isn't it.

...well, I guess we're gonna have to agree to disagree on the 'facts' here.

[ right? they all have, but think of poor, sweet nodd ]
So I'm offering, if it'd help with the edge--'cause it helps with mine. I suck you off.
[ hand up ]
Don't answer yet. You're a decent man, so your first thoughts are proper thoughts. Give the bad ones a chance. Give them a minute.

[ shrug. pulls up collar of his shirt to take a sniff. frowns. ]
Maybe not this second. I should change.
[ glance to the medbay door ]
...You think they'll be okay if I go shower?

Okay. Twenty minutes.

Thanks for the talk.
