[It doesn't make much of a difference. But one of those options is shittier than the other, for sure.

Shinji sighs.] Long as we're being honest about shit. I lost control of my Persona and Ken's mom died for it. By the time I got it under control again, half their damn house was caved in. It was an accident, but I was still ready to let him kill me for it. Figured I didn't deserve any better.
