You'd be surprised how often I relate to people I never thought I'd relate to.
[This place is full of crewmembers who've suffered incredibly. Newt hates to think that he could slot himself into that category now too, but you've gotta call a spade a spade; he's mentally screwed up, and he'll never quite be the guy he was before he was stripped of his own bodily control and left to flounder around helplessly, trapped in his own mind.]
That's what I'm doing. Kinda. I mean... my deal is to completely wipe the precursors out of history. Make sure they never have a chance to destroy so many civilizations, or kill so many people back home.
It's possible when I go home, they won't be in my head anymore, even if I don't complete my deal. But... it's possible they will exist and be back in my body. And I don't wanna risk it.
