Given what happened I have to insist you change your mind. I don't mean to guilt trip you, but you're far too valuable to allow anything to happen to you.

In addition, personally speaking, I also believe your loss would be widely felt. You are rather liked, after all. I will admit that you're someone I'd like to see around as long as possible, and not only for professional reasons.

[This is as good as it gets when it's November, really. While he does want to keep her around for pragmatic reasons, he does like her as a person too, although it's unlikely he'll ever say 'yeah we're friends'.]

i see.

[what else can she even say to that? it takes a while for him to reply - he couldn't be blamed for thinking she'd left him on read. sometimes you just need time to collect your thoughts.]

i'll consider it, but the fact that my medical skills are needed here is why i want to be within easy reach in case someone needs me. staying out of reach to ensure my own safety seems counterproductive.

Reaching you through these phones is easy and convenient. Someone trying to reach you can do so through these.

[Well, it would make one lose precious minutes traveling from one location to the other, admittedly, but as he sees it, it may help ensure Jiuqing's safety]

and if they need something i don't have with me, and their condition worsens while i am making a detour to the medical bay to gather supplies...?

[True enough. Sigh. It's both good and a little vexing Jiuqing takes her role so seriously, he thinks]

Point taken. Just make sure to take care of yourself.
