John didn't really know much about the heart. It was something he had thought to seek out but thus far he had resisted temptation. He had focused his efforts on research. Learning some of the alien language among other things. He had been on the station for over a year and it had taken him some time to pick things up but he had catalogued a great deal of what he had found over that time.
John started to watch the other man carefully. He took another drag of his cigarette and mulled over the other mans words.
"Some things can't be fixed, mate. And the things that can't sometime shouldn't be. Not the easiest thing to accept, from personal experience" he added. "You could have walked in here and told people what you wanted. Somehow I don't get the feeling your intentions aren't all that pure... We could have given you what you needed to take back. Food, seeds to grow your own food, supplies..." he said, shaking his head slightly. "No, I'm not buying it, mate. Not one bit" he said, taking one last drag on the cigarette. He tossed the end to the floor and put it out with the heel of his foot.
