Yes. It's how this boat works. Growth by trauma. Everyone just got a good hard look at the kind of world we end up with when everyone's trying to outpredator each other. Even the hardest cases start to see the value in looking after each other when they've been shown a world where that's the exception.

It's ugly. I manage to live with myself because I didn't force anyone to be here. Because I'm working to give them their chance to leave, and because I go through it with them. But it does work.
