You’re fairly certain the man who you’re about to go on this mission with would rather not be here. Truth be told, you’d rather not be here either - but orders are orders, and The Foundation makes it clear that going against those orders will quickly get you terminated.
You don’t know why they don’t just use ‘killed’. Terminated must just sound more clinical.
As you wait with the man, you find yourself chatting about your Star Children, back on your world. At first, he looks bored - but as you keep talking, you see he starts to straighten up, then look somewhat concerned as you talk about your veritable 2 and a half football teams worth of children.
“Are you...okay? Like….everything’s still...working fine?” He asks, looking, well, pale.
You tell him yes, and he looks like he’s about to cry.
