[ Back then, Lena had seen things very black-and-white. People were in trouble, and it was Overwatch's job to swoop in and save them like superheroes. Why sit on all of those resources and all of that talent if it didn't serve the greater good?

She'd been so young. She knows that now. But her desire to do good, her belief that Overwatch can still change the world for the better, hasn't changed. She couldn't change it even if she wanted to.

Lena looks at her hands briefly before looking up at him again.

Quietly: ] It matters to the people we saved. Including me.

I know it's not how the world works. There's pride and greed, people supportin' somethin' because it's popular to, complex laws and legitimate concerns.

[ She takes a deep breath. ] But if we hadn't broken the rules, I would've lost my home. Maybe lost all of London.

So, yeah, maybe it's stupid and reckless and short-sighted. But if I can help people, save someone's home, give someone hope, I will. I can't change who I am. You know that.
