Yeah, I know. But I'll give those types one thing, at least they're more interested in causing violence themselves. Not... setting up something like this.

[It's not much, but that's something. It's hard dealing with the types who set this thing up, because... it's not a problem he can just punch away. Or cleverly talk his way out of.]

...Right. I get that. Better a known evil than... whatever you even call this. Right? [He's quiet for a second.] I don't know, don't think I'm ready to toss in the towel completely yet. I've had a lot of times where I was sure I reached the end of the line, but I'm still here. Somehow.

Maybe my luck's gonna run out, but I'm always prepared for that chance anyway.
