#if Minkowski loses a few toes that'll be too bad

[clonerightsagenda]

I think it's very characteristic of Eiffel that regret over the accident is a major driver of his character - it informs his insistence on not hurting people and his desire to find goodness/capacity for change in others - but also he's still selfish and careless and gets the people around him hurt. It's like how he respects and cares for Minkowski and still says her name wrong. He tries, and then he stops.

#he's much better in the big crises than the little moments #when they're staging a mutiny he will insist on not going scorched earth bc they have to live with themselves later #and he knows how things weigh on you #but day to day? eh he wont depressurize those canisters #if Minkowski loses a few toes that'll be too bad #where's that tumblr post saying people want being a good person to be pulling a lever once #but instead it's holding something moderately heavy up for 80 years #wolf 359
