[he listens silently, expression unchanging. honestly, this is kind of a big deal, but ratchet knows he would be hypocritical to raise a stink about it. he's also finding it a bit hard to care about those things at the moment, too.]
I'm sorry you lost your friend, as well as the ship. These sort of things worry me, too, especially here. What does it mean for us bein' stuck on the same ship with them indefinitely? I wonder what the board would have to say about that.
[it's not a problem ratchet would ever have, practicing normally.]
I don't know. boundaries are.. difficult in these situations and distancing yourself can be...
Its why I was happy to have peers again. You and Krok... it meant I didn't need to do this alone, we could lean on eachother and support eachother in ways we can't support our patients.. but
I feel its almost impossible when we live with them..
[he keeps looking down at his hands, drawing them into his lap.]
Well. It's not entirely proper or professional, but I think we can still be peers after this. We all need to work together with these new dimensional issues that affect mental health and Primus knows we ain't got much choice in anythin' else.
[his expression crimps.]
The friggin' board can deal with it when Cybertron is alive again and there even is one.
[he could talk more about this with rung, but he is right. it would just let ratchet deflect his own stuff more and more until he convinces himself he doesn't need to talk about any of it again.]
