Yes, well. Presumably if I'm asking Hope about one of these people, it may be someone I care about. I'm not particularly squeamish about such things, but it might be good to keep in mind.
[don't? just say her friend was eaten by a cannibal?]
I admit it's possible. But I also wonder whether they're just in storage somewhere. After all, the cannibal was locked away somewhere.
You don't know what you're talking about, actually. I know you're referring to those of us from the station, but did it ever occur to you that it isn't a requirement to opine smugly on other people's lives as though you're the expert?
I don't think I am. But a lot more than just you and yours have friends here whether you like those people or not, and most of them are dead. Except maybe Yoo's lot.
[He at least doesn't seem to be angry.]
No one wants them to be eaten for good any more than we want our friends to be murderers, but they could be. It's just a fact we'd have to deal with if it were true.
You're being condescending, but you don't realize, which is perhaps worse. I'm aware a lot of people here have died, and we haven't. Fine. I've lost more people than you know, so don't talk down to me about it as though I don't know what it means.
It's a fact we'll have to deal with, thank you for the advice.
[He wants to say if that's true for her, she doesn't get to tell him to shut up because he's saying something she doesn't want to hear. But he knows that'll keep them locked in an argument both of them may be too stubborn to walk away from.

The truth is a hard pill to swallow. You seem to be doing pretty good for what it's worth. With the whole friends alive thing.
[One shoulder shrugs.]
They probably are. It figures the one person they let out is, of course, the guy who thinks it's fun to eat everyone. That's great.
