"Perhaps, though here it is all rather moot, isn't it?" She shrugs a shoulder, glancing back at the menu in front of them. It's not an inexpensive restaurant, and the dishes all look appealing. And yet their conversation makes her feel at least like she should try and explain some more. "Life is too short to not enjoy what we have, but we have a duty, all of us, to improve the world that we live in. Even here. That doesn't mean not having a nice dinner and a bottle of wine, but it does mean working in other ways."
Which, she realises, is something she's been lacking here, devoting so much of her time to study and the hospital.
