( ah. there it is.

Lexi shrugs and shakes his head. ) No I can't.

There is no version of this where humans allow themselves to be fed on. It's just a simple fact.

The system we've created has led to the most peace between our four species as is possible. The most lives saved. For all of us.

[ his head shakes.

now, that nervous energy is gone. ]

It's not peace, Lexi.

[ he pushes up his sleeve, revealing the track marks on his arms. ]

It's this. And it hurts. Our lives are needles and teeth, and we have no choice. And we have no voice. You said that we do. It's either a lie that you told or a lie you believed, and calling this 'peace' is the same.

[ he picks up his phone and moves away. ]

I have to go. Thank you. [ gesturing with the phone. ] For helping.

( Lexi doesn't stop him. doesn't move at all. he lets Dani get his piece out. take his phone. )

Ask again if you need help. ( is all he finally says before he picks up his own phone again to look through the network. )
