[ yes, please get his mind of the horrors he is seeing in every shiny service. he will come and sit. ]
You still seeing them too? [ hateful after effects. ]
Everything we all went through individually and as a group... the things we saw and heard. [ looks down at io's new port. ]

[ aaaaaaa it was all hateful!! ]
When we all fell, what happened to you? You cut us out of that thing...
Same as you. Managed to... wake up from that dream. When I realized what was happening, I used my scalpel to get myself free so I could cut through the rest.

It must have been difficult, even if it wasn't an exact copy... I'm sorry.

That was... not a priority for me. I had to focus. So. Don't apologize.
[ it... affected him, and it's visible in his expression, somewhat pained, but he's far more concerned about what it's done to all of them. ]
The difficult part was not so much the familiarity. But the tainting of the circumstance. Beastly thing...
