... which ain't really the right word for it. We're all pretty sure he left. But my family and I ain't been able to find him. Me an' him... didn't exactly part on the best terms either, after his accident.
Talkin' about being a kid, just... got me thinking about it.

[Little does Engineer that being damned is probably part of it - at least for Medic, anyhow. He keeps an arm out to steady the other merc before giving him a mild slap to the back.]
