[ Those years as a trainee had been as good as she'd gotten in her young life. Even if she'd known the whole time that she'd be the downfall of the people she worked alongside, even if she'd isolated herself from them as much as she could, it had been... not bad, not until after the mission became active once more.
No one had ever warned her what that would cost her if they were even partly successful, and it's a price she still has to pay. Failing didn't wipe that slate clean. ]
I don't know. [ A brief pause. ] I guess so.
[ Now, after losing it all, she just wants to be done. She isn't even sure why she's here. Absolution was out of the question, she'd have to regret her choices more than she did to even ask for that.
An end, maybe, but neither side could afford bringing the wrong kind of attention down on themselves. ]
