Well, you know, I could be getting shot at, or knitting a sweater at home. [Jokes aside, sitting on the floor alone in his apartment is the best case scenario. He's usually trying to stay up and stave away the nightmares and flashbacks, or doing homework so his therapist won't write some terrible evaluation of his progress. This is... supposed to be good for him, isn't it? Getting to know people, having something to do that isn't just fighting all the time?]

I can't say I've spent that much time out in a boat on the water, but I'll make myself useful. [It might not be as peaceful as a small plot of land with a few goats to watch over, especially if the water's going to get choppy, but at least they're not getting shot at by all the fish in the sea. That's definitely going to be a bonus.]

I know it's your family business, but it's not an easy one to run on your own. You never thought about leaving, doing something else?
