Fifteen hours! That seems like a long time... although when he compares it to working all day, it doesn't sound quite so extreme. "I think I've done that a few times," she admits. "Working that long without a break. Yes, it can be exhausting."
"It made sense to learn some medical care, since I was seeing people anyway for their vaccinations," she explains. She pats her bruise one last time with the tissue, then begins looking around for a wastebasket. "But, um, there's a lot more I should learn if I really wanted to help people, especially because we have limited resources." She smiles. "But yeah, it feels good to be useful."
Once the tissue is properly disposed of, she takes another sip of juice. It's as good as the first, but it doesn't distract her from Viatorus's answer. It's wonderful to hear him so enthused about his work, she wants to give it the attention it deserves. She swallows hurriedly and sets the glass back down when he explains his current focus of research. "No, you didn't! Is that possible?" She laughs and waves a hand. "Sorry, sorry, it must be because you're trying to do it. That sounds amazing, though. How is that different from going there in your sleep?"
