FH Clinic, [2/14]

Susan's more amused by this holiday than anything, so she has taped up the red lollipops, and also gotten out DEATH's sex ed display. The one with the condom balloon animals.

She's waiting on a couple patients, but if you have questions, feel free to talk to her.

"Well before I came into my "job". I had run away from home and joined the Army. When they tested me they found that I had a certain kind of "moral flexibility" and I was loaned out to a special program. I guess that flexibility allowed me to think that there was a difference between who I ws and not what I did. I mean if I showed up at your door, my rationalization was that you did something to deserve it."

Marty sat back with a little bit of a frown on his face.

"When I started coming to school here, that changed. I started my relationship with Angela. I took some religion courses which made me question my views even more. I don't know what kind of conclusions I've drawn from that experience or if I believe in a higher power. I just know I don't want to be what I was."

Internally, Susan was cursing the U.S. Army rather vehemently. Of *course* an adolescent would have moral flexibility; at that age, the need for structure made it relatively easy to provide a teenager looking for stability with a new framework, absent anything already in place. Aloud, she said, "So you basically accepted that the government would make moral choices for you, without questioning their agenda. The end justifies the means, in effect."

"Do you think it's likely that you'll become that again? I'm asking if you're worried you'll become a killer, a killer-for-hire, or a person with that same 'moral flexibility' that you referred to earlier."

"I don't think so. It's possible I suppose and probably what I fear the most," Marty said with a little bit of fear on his face. "Another part of me wonders if there's anything I can do to redeem myself for what I've done."
