Duly noted. [ it's said with a laugh and a wince, but.

You know, coping. ]

[chevaliered]

[ oof. ]

Right, so making you laugh is banned too.

[momming]

Absolutely not. [ as sternly as she can manage through a breathless smile. ]

Laughter helps quite a bit.

[chevaliered]

Even when your ribs are busted, huh?

[momming]

Even then. It's better than... [ she flaps a hand hahaha she killed a teenager ]

[chevaliered]

[ he just

boops her nose. ]

What this place does to you does not put the onus of responsibility on your shoulders. Get mad and get even, don't get yourself bogged down with guilt.

[momming]

[ And she blinks, a little caught off-guard. ]

... Do you think I'd let it bog me down?

[chevaliered]

Some people do. In… less intense circumstances than this.

[momming]

[ She slowly shakes her head. ]

I'm no use as a doctor if I keep people worrying about me. And if I linger on it, then what does that change?

... I won't forget what I was forced to do. But it just means I won't grow complacent here.

[chevaliered]

... That's a better attitude than a lot of people I've run into. [ good. ] If people think violence is the way to turn then we're definitely going to need your skills in the future.

Worst case scenario, of course.

[momming]

Of course. [ with a small pump of her fist. ]

I'll be ready regardless.

[chevaliered]

Yeah, let’s be honest — someone will fall and cut their knee at some point.
