So it's probably only bad because Soldat has weird over-reactions regarding experimentation, scientists, and doctors. (Don't think I'd call it that weird, given the givens. No fucking doctors. Yeah, okay, you two, you have a point.) If it's enough to make the Asset say three words in a row, including one that wasn't actually necessary to get its point across, then that's a point worth agreeing with, too.

Soldat just lets Sora ramble. It seems easiest. It's usually easiest to just let Sora ramble, to be honest. They're probably about to the point where they'd better pick up their patrol again, but. In a minute. Sitting still where it's warm listening to the sounds of spirits in the kitchen and Sora chattering beside them is nice. For once, they don't even catch on to the moment of near-spiral.

"If she was your friend," they suggest, "she'd probably understand. And forgive you for not knowing yet." Ain't like she's here, anyway, but they're not tactless enough to say that.
