[The camera turns on only after it’s thrown, tossed across the room like a ragdoll by a forgotten child. The angle’s odd, down and half blinded by light like an amateur photograph photoshopped with flare, but what’s shown is easy to make out: Zack, kneeling at the memorial, his face in his gloved hands, shoulders shaking with his grief.

People leave, Zack. [Tough love. Tseng is trying it. Sans the slapping him.]

I'm sorry that it has upset you, but surely you knew it would happen eventually. You have to know nothing is ever-lasting. [He's a SOLDIER, right? He should know that people die and people get stationed in far off places and you never hear from them again.]

Don't stay alone for too long.

[Your tough love can go to hell, Tseng. He's pouty.]

He didn't deserve this. He didn't--shouldn't have--

It's not fair!

Life is very rarely fair. Especially when it comes to events such as this one.

[Pouting is unbecoming though!]

He died once. You should be glad that there was borrowed time here. Secure in the knowledge that you may be sad but it isn't the end.

He deserved fairness, though. He's suffered enough. And I should've been able to help! I should've protected him! I let him down again!

[You get frown lines...]

A lot of people have gone missing lately.

I'm starting to wonder if I'll be next. 'Cause I'm on borrowed time, too, aren't I?

And if you disappear, I'll feel all the richer for having met you again here. [He refuses to admit to moping.]

You didn't let him down. He didn't give you the chance to save him, Zack.

I worry. About leaving. About not being here to protect the people I care about. About what I'm going back to. I don't want to, you know. I don't ever want to, even though I know someday...[He trails off.]

I have the dreams. If I could've just used them! Tapped into them like I should've, then I would've had a chance!
