Okay, some worries and reflections - if I don't get a reply, I'll be (humorously) pissed off:

- One, basically, Cedric's treatment (getting beaten and tasered until he bonds with one of the few people who didn't treat him like shit), then getting exposed to stuff like a man being lit on fire, that's going to screw him up. I mean, I want him to get traumatized; it makes people pity him, but I also don't want him to go insane, or even whacked in the head. Any tips on dealing with that?

- Two, wow, this world is crapsack. The Government and Corporations are both assholes, Cedric (a 15-year old kid) had to watch a guy getting burned alive, Ruby, who I think is a 15-year old girl is enslaved to a corporation, and everyone just gets treated badly. Wow, this is grimdark. Can someone hug me, and is there any chance our actions can at least make some part of the world a better place?
