Takin' that seriously? Aren't you still doin' it on tha side?

And what did that last perspective teach you about people, doctor?

I won't say no to anyone who asks for help, but I'm not in the office.

It reminded me how it felt to be new and in a place where you feel out if your depth, but still supported.

[Sounds like someone doesn't know how to quit. Collins wasn't that interested in that topic though.]

Always a bright side ta everything? [He snorted.] Don't you just come from a pleasant world.

I suppose.

Did you need something from me, Mr. Collins?

[A pause, then:]

What does it say when ya don't have any connections ta anyone?

In a breach or here on the Barge?

Breach.

[He's not that antisocial, doctor. He has friends!]

I don't think it says much.

Last breach, I had a brother. A family. People and connections. The one before, I was alone. This one seems middling to those.

You said you like tha perspective each brings. Did tha one spent alone teach you anything?

That was - the zombie apocalypse.

I suppose that I could still help people. That I could be good, even when no one was looking.

Ah. I take it there weren't a lot of living people left and tha world was a horrible mess.

['Zombie' was barely a word to him, but 'apocalypse' was understandable enough. End of the world according to religion and all.]

What a way to spend yer final days.

I was a medical doctor, then. It didn't matter. I knew I would get infected eventually; I just wanted to help as many people as I could.

Does that answer your questions?

Of course ya did.

[Seemed both fitting and not all that different from the regular Sheehan.]

I don't know.
