Hey! [Arthur waves at the camera, he's wearing some of his new clothes that are more utilitarian than his usual style (Yes, he keeps blowing his money on clothes. Hush.)] So I have all the preliminary sketches done. If you asked me to draw you something, you should come on over to the Red Fish to see them and tell me if I need to change anything.

I'm also working on a research project with Ms. Carter. If you could answer with some of these preliminary questions I threw together, I'd be most appreciative. Keep in mind that you don't have to answer all of them, especially if they make you uncomfortable, and that these results may be available to anyone on the ship.

We may have some more questions in the future.

Has anyone here... lost someone close to them? How do you deal with that, especially if you maybe could have stopped them dying, if you had known something was wrong?

You never really deal with something like that. You just learn to live with it. You get good days, you get bad days. The best you can do is hope the good days outnumber the bad ones and when the bad ones do come along, you try to come out of the other end of them as together as you can be.

Finding stuff to take your mind off it helps. Even if it's just for a little while.

[He feels you, he does. ]

Sorry, it'll just be dealt with in its own time. It sucks, I know, but there you go.

Sorry for your loss, all the same.
