'Bout a week ago, some guy asked me how many people I'd seen come an' go since I got here. In three months it's somethin' like... 70 out of 110. Probably more now, I ain't bothered countin'... but that kinda stuff can really get you down, even when you don't know th' numbers. We lose people all th' time here. People we got to know here, friends from back home... [ He falls silent for a beat. Draws a steadying breath. ] An' it's sad. It's damn sad an' there ain't nothin' we can do 'bout it but keep goin'.

...I guess I just wanted t' remind y'all about th' Memorial Garden down in Sector 4. Anyone who wants t' plant somethin' there in memory of someone they lost, whether they were here or back home... you're welcome to. It's for all of us, th' ones that are still here an' the ones that aren't.

Hey, Sougo... I need your help with somethin'.

[ Aidan will be dividing his day between lugging boxes between Sector 2 and 4, and later spending a few long hours in the Memorial Garden. Feel free to approach the pensive country boy! ]

	Heh... you're not th' first person to say that, y'know. You really think that's somethin' people would want to learn though? I mean... it ain't nothin' special. Just stuff you learn by livin'. Ain't like anyone here needs me t' teach 'em how to take care of 'emselves, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'd be surprised at what some people would be interested in learning. Not all of them have had the same experience as you; sharing that could be a good thing but it's up to you. But I'd imagine that most people here would know the basics. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, maybe... I ain't too sure how to go 'bout that tho. I mean, ain't like anyone taught me... not like they do it in school, anyway. Never was too good at th' schoolin' as is. Kinda feel like I wouldn't make a good teacher 'cause of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wasn't taught that way either. Learned a lot of things at home rather than school and when I got older, I learned more along the way. All you can really do is try. If it doesn't work out, then it doesn't work out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hmn... I guess. Wouldn't hurt to try, right? Maybe I should talk t' Euphie... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Think on it for a little while if you have to. That's all I can say. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah... I think I will. Thanks Rose. I appreciate it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're welcome, Aidan. Good luck, whatever you decide to do. (Reply to this) (Parent)
