[ That definitely would go over a whole lot worse than the rest of this conversation, that's for sure. Back on Tarsus IV, he was also one of the chosen, meant to live, meant to take rations that others needed just as much. It sits sickly in his stomach, to this day. He's no more than everyone else, and he would be repulsed by the thought of being in that position again.
What he has, he will share with everyone. Even if it means going hungry, being weaker, having a harder time down the line. He's not going to take or keep from others here. And he would certainly expect Finn to know him at least well enough to know that he would never accept such a gesture. ]
You'll do what you want.
[ That much has become obvious by now. Jim just can't bring himself to be there to watch it. He sucks in a breath, shaky and shuddered, then shakes his head, going for the door without looking back to Finn, or saying another word. There's no point anymore anyway, is there? ]
[ At this point, Finn's pretty sure that he doesn't know James at all. Not as well as... others, anyway. Talking like this, leaving- Of all the things, he hadn't expected this.
As James walks away, Finn opens his mouth to say... something. That this isn't what he wants to do. That he still wants to be by his side despite this fight. That he loves him. Something. It's not indecision that stops him, though, but the knowledge that he can't make this better. He can't change his mind, he can't reassure James, he can't just suddenly be believed about the impossible... The best thing he can do right now is let James leave.
