[... He can't blame her, really. How can she feel any other way when they're being hunted every single week by these monsters?]

We're going to find our way out. And when we do that... we'll figure out how to make sure this never happens for anyone else, too.

[Firmly:]

Whatever it takes...we'll find it. I'm not sure yet what it's really going to take... but we can do it.

[xenoqueen]

I damn well hope so.

[She exhales sharply, rubbing the wound on her arm. She falls quiet, staring straight ahead of her. After a few moments, she glances towards Minato.]

I'm going to go back to my room and...rest. [Her voice is firm as she tries to keep the weariness out of her voice.] It's been a long week. I would suggest you do the same.

[messianic]

... Okay.

[Minato takes a slow breath in...and then breathes it out.]

Ripley-san... please remember that you don't have to take everything on your own shoulders.

You've supported us all so much--I want to help support you too.

[xenoqueen]

[Ripley pauses for a moment, not looking towards Minato.]

You want to help support me?

[She echoes his words with a hint of dubiousness. She runs a hand through her hair, sighing.]

Keep working with the kids. Make sure they don't do anything stupid and try and sacrifice themselves to whatever. I can't pretend that I'm right all the time, but...experience tells me that things are going to go south real fast unless we can find a way out of here soon.

[messianic]

[... Ha... well. That's fair. If that's what will help Ripley, then... he just nods firmly.]

Got it. I'll do everything I can to try to stop them all from being so reckless. You can count on me.

[xenoqueen]

[Ripley gives him a curt nod, sighing deeply. After a moment, she says--]

...Thank you.

[And...off the goes. She walks slowly, as if in a trance. Or maybe she's just tired. It's probably the latter.

God, this place is exhausting.]
