"Well, I'm sorry you weren't permanently murdered when you thought it would be most convenient," Ratchet says, his voice very dry.
"Unfortunately for you, you are still alive, which means screwing up sometimes. And if you think that's cosmically unfair, for you to be alive after what you did in the future, then congratulations, life isn't fair and neither is death and we're all just doing the best we can." He gestures, a little helplessly. "It feels weird to tell you that you can't undo what's already been done when you haven't even technically done it yet but--well, you can't do anything about it, at any rate. I get that it's a difficult thing to process, but I have apparently just come from giving Drift the pinnacle of all lectures about how moping around and beating yourself up over actions you can no longer change serves nothing and no one, so I have it all prepped and ready to go if you really want to hear it."
