[ Andy understands guilt. And failure. Probably better than most. But she's always been more forgiving with others than herself. For her part, there's no resentment. Not towards him. Though she's sure Majima's self-loathing won't care about that either way.

There's enough there to put something together. A couple packages of instant noodles mixed in with the seasoning, a spot of Japanese mayo for a bit of extra fat, some rehydrated vegetables, and an egg cracked over the top, all in a bowl covered with a paper plate. It's not the authentic stuff, but it's better than a packet of saltines.
