I wished we lived in a different universe, Minimus. One where I'd made different choices and was a different person. We don't, though and I have to pay the price for my actions.
[ This is more difficult than he thought it would be. ]
I wish we had more time. You're intelligent, dutiful, thorough, good-natured, and ultimately kind. You want to make the universe a better place than you left it. I want to be able to get to know you more than I do now. I want to see you learn and grow and I already have been utterly, completely privileged to see you become more than what you were when I first came aboard the Lost Light.
It's a loss that I will mourn.
But I also know that the memory of our time together will keep me sane, for however long I remain locked in that prison.
