[Revolutions are messy, right? Isn't that what they always say? And if revolution is what he's proposing... He will need to accept that it'll come with losses.

He hasn't been thinking about the collateral damage and civilian deaths, though. Even if her question is an important one. And that puts him off his stride. He doesn't want to think about the inevitable deaths, he just wants to find something, some tiny little lead to grab on to, that will help lift him out of this grief-fueled rut he's been rotting in.

It's about pressing on, even if the fight looks hopeless. You're a warrior, are you not? Surely you can appreciate what I mean.
