You wouldn’t listen to me!
*Leans against the wall with my hand and takes a deep breath*
If that really is Mierno in there, we can’t open that pod. He’s not able to operate from his actual body like that. He does projections of himself, or whatever. We might kill him.

*Looks at you with watery eyes*

<Snipped quote by Extra>
Lesson learned, right? Maybe we exercise a bit of critical thinking for the moment, this time around?

What... what does that mean? What did you do?

<Snipped quote by Extra>
*Grimaces*
You'll be okay. I'll—I'm... I'll f-fix this!
