“Which just leaves one question.”

“What happens next?”

“Precisely.”

“You want me to leave?”

“I never took you for a coward, but it's your choice.”

“What?”

“You can remain at the ARC, saving the world or...”

“Or quit as a 'coward'?”

“There's no need for sarcasm. What I was going to say was you can have a fresh start. Severance and a good reference...”

“From N...Cutter?”

“From me! Personally...”

“Yes?”

“I'd prefer you to stay, you do serve a valuable role.”

“Cutter...”

“I'd suggest talking to clear the air.”

“A fresh start?”

“Quite. I never said it would be easy.”

Some talking really would have been a good idea!

It would have changed so much if only they'd talked.

Thanks for reading.

I do like the dialogue only drabbles. That was nice.

Talking would certainly have helped.

Nice use of dialogue. Both voices were very distinctive.
