I don’t think there’s a universe out there where there isn’t some force greater than humanity. Maybe it’s a god, or a spirit, fate, or nature itself, but there is something. I’ve watched people rail against the Paintress my whole life, and that was upsetting enough –– I don’t know if it’s better or worse that we couldn’t talk to her, or ask her questions.
[She cants her head a little.]
Is this nonsense right now, Vax? What about last week?
Mm. There’s no real excuse for what was done to us last week, but time and time again, I saw people stepping into help others. Sometimes relative strangers. Even if I lost any trust in the people who brought us here, I know I’m with many, many good people, and can rely on them. I certainly enjoy your company.

No, of course not.
[ That's an obvious answer, and Vax is quick to give it. ]
And last week was.. well, the fog was horseshit. It didn't even have to happen, but we were made to suffer, anyway.

And I enjoy yours. With everything I hate about this place, the people here are the best thing about it.
[ Vax has to admit she has a point, though. ]
I guess I could try to.. be a little more comfortable, though.

You could try. And if you find it a little difficult… I’m happy to give you some encouragement.
