Sharky doesn't have all the answers -- most of the time he doesn't have any answers -- but he knows that Pratt doesn't deserve all of this guilt on top of what he's already carrying. part of him worries that the more doubt and guilt Pratt feels, the more likely he is to disappear, too.

Yeah. I get it, man. You knew all these people and they're gone and it feels like maybe if you did, like, one thing different, doesn't matter what that thing is, if you'd done it different they'd still be here. I dunno how it works. Nobody really does. And I knew lots of those people too -- Stede, Clara, Jinx, I knew all of them too. I knew Venti, too. And the cool kid who gave us all weed. But...
[yeah, fuck it, he's gonna go whole hog on this:] Like, it isn't my fault they're gone, right? It isn't Ava's fault her shitty ex-boyfriend disappeared, right?
