Anyway.
Grey absently strokes Manabu's back, trying to put his thoughts in some semblance of order.]
My life was bad. I was raised as a lab rat. So maybe my opinion doesn't count for much, to you. [Since Grey's going to have way lower standards than a normal person and all.] But I remember how people treated you when we were on Tabito. Your mother, Shutaro, the miners. Everyone liked you. They're glad you're here too.
