We knew there would be casualties, Shepard. We all knew there was a chance we wouldn't walk away from this. I'm not angry or upset that I died, that was only a matter of when and where, so don't beat yourself up about it.

You're not responsible for what happened to me, that is my own damned fault. If I hadn't been on Earth, well, I could've been in one of the frigates or died back on Palaven.

[He'll chuckle.]

If you hadn't shown up on Omega, I'd certainly be dead by now.
