[ Despite the gravity of the situation - and the memory they'd both had to sit through - Wriothesley can't help but smile a little. Not very many people have ever come to his defense, largely because he's never given anyone a reason to, but he has to admit that it's a nice feeling all the same. ]

Maybe, but there's nothing that be done now to change what's already happened. [ All things considered, he's not sure if he would change anything that happened regardless. ] Besides, I turned out okay, didn't I?

[ This is such a loaded question. ]

Compared to others? I'll give you props.

[ Wriothesley gets credit where credit's due for being one of the more normal-passing people around. He could have turned into yet another shitty adult, there was certainly no shortage of them in that memory. However, if we're talking okay, don't think Elan hasn't noticed the way he trivializes the horror of what he went through. ]

The real question is whether there's a single one of us who's okay.

[ That's also a loaded question. Maybe we don't get into that. ]

[ Look, it's fine, his coping mechanisms are completely normal and healthy? It's completely normal to trivialize traumatic experiences and put on a carefree face.

At least Elan's not digging too much more into things, which he appreciates. ]

Somehow I doubt LILITH picked us for our mental and psychological stability.

[ People who are nice and normal probably aren't going to have a good time fighting giant monsters in a civilization on the verge of collapse. Just sayin'. ]

we can probably wrap this one up?

[ It's not like Elan can judge since he copes in the exact same way. Shhh, it's fine. ]

These glitches aren't making it any easier when we relive memories like that! If they're going to put stuff in us, they could at least test it properly.

[ He rubs his temples. He would have better mental health if technology that's been installed in his body did what it's supposed to, but Peil and LILITH prove scientists just shouldn't have that much power. ]

Speaking of, we should probably check on things.
