[He pulls back just enough to face him.] ...it's hard. I know it is, but we can't sit here thinking about what would have happened if we'd done something different, alright? We can admit we screwed up, but we can work on getting better.
What we really need is to make sure you guys are protected when you're out there. Ray had an artillery of weapons at his disposal but somehow that wasn't enough. That means there's something else.
Maybe it wouldn't have, maybe it would have. That still counts on having an equal number of Sincerities compared to an equal number of us. If he had battle armor...there's a risk you or Ishi wouldn't.
[A good Taka. Once they're settled on the couch Jack leans back and tilts his head up to look at the ceiling thoughtfully.]
...I don't know what we can do to make this better. We would need at least four people to make sure nobody's working alone and the grounds are covered. Or three, if someone was protected somehow.
Maybe that'll work. That's also assuming those numbers add up. We'll have to see what happens tomorrow, check our numbers again and come up with a new plan.
...it's been a while since it's just been you and me, huh? We started working with other people and that's been the norm. I'm happy for it, but...[Taka is still his fav.]

We need to change... something about how we're doing this.

Still, having powers like that used on us would give us an advantage in general, right?
