There you go. You're gonna kick butt at this now. [she lets the girl play where she is and, wearing a huge smile that doesn't go away easily, continues her conversation with 2B.] I mean, I've got people to protect of my own, too, you know? And all of us make up whatever our future's gonna look like here. No reason we can't share that load.
