What is your biggest regret?

Why would I regret everything? My life is turning out fine. I don't miss anything. No regrets. Shut up.

Freudian slip much? ("[E]verything", indeed!)

Here, have a ginger ale on the house. Sounds like you need it.

If I could have figured out how to move between one reality and another sooner, perhaps I would have more friends and patrons by now. It'd be nice, but it doesn't keep me awake at night.

...Not that I sleep as mortals do, but it's a nice turn of phrase all the same.

Maybe there was a way to bring my family around to my point of view, and I just never found the right words to persuade them. I didn't want to leave. I wanted to change, a little, but not at so high a cost.

I don't like to think about it.

As opposed to all the people who revel in raking up their past hurts? Hot take, lady.

Regrets are for those with ample memory. As for me, I can't regret that which I can't recall. I do know why my memory lacks, though, and I suppose I regret that occurrence to some extent.

Ought never touched that damnable sword. It would nae fix everything, but it'd do a pretty bit.

I've spoken about it before, but yeah. The woman in powered armor who attacked me. I broke her armor to stop her. Turns out the armor was also her life support.

I don't know what I should have done differently, but it seems like there must be something I overlooked, some escape clause that would have made everything turn out right. Better. More heroic. Maybe there wasn't.

But what if there was? How would I know if there was?
