You're a doctor, right? So I've got patient's confidentiality, that's how that works, yes, listen, Doc, I'm not <span class="mu-i">ungrateful</span> but I do think that maybe my work-home life balance has been a little <span class="mu-i">out</span> of order ever since me and my entire department was declared traitors to the cause I'm just saying it does a lot on your <span class="mu-s">sleep</span> schedule to be watching over your shoulder every night for the Boys in Grey and thinking maybe some people with cudgels are gonna start crawling through your windows and vacation days? Forget about vacation days, I haven't had a <span class="mu-i">vacation day</span> in I think maybe two years and I'm <span class="mu-i">just saying</span> it's all a little sort of a lot in the long run, I like the job wonderful colleagues, important business, interesting vases, fine fancy uniforms and I actually have my own discretionary budget, did you know that? Well, I mean, I have to forge five signatures and pretend I'm a art historian for a university running on a tenure track position to study Rikovol Animist Statues in the Late Thin Blade Period but in a way that's a discretionary budget <span class="mu-i">right</span> so it's the THOUGHT that counts and not that if I get the signatures on my fake expense report wrong I'm going to get arrested for conspiring to suborn the state but <span class="mu-s">anyway</span> I don't want to rant it's just I got shot in the lung with a seeker arrow and I haven't slept in five days and I'm starting to run out of stimulants and next time colonel Gerean says she has a tiny little small minute no problem easiest thing infinitesimal won't even take a week side-gig and could I find five minutes in my business schedule of staying one step ahead of the people that would like to arrest me, I just, I just, I'd really like to work on my <span class="mu-s"> interpersonal </span> skills, you know?
Maybe look her in the eyes and say: I'd love to help overthrown an entire state apparatus but I'm a little busy so can it maybe wait until after my lunch break?
Is that too much to ask, doc? I feel like it's too much to ask. It's sorta rude. And I bet she'd be so disappointed. And then I'd feel bad and....
Sorry, I'm ranting. Phew. Okay. Right. Wow, Doctor, you're really good at listening. Thanks. I feel so much better. Yes. Where were we?
