[COST, so far, has been about preserving the past to save the universe from tyranny in the future. That’s a cause 76 can get behind, and as long as he isn’t asked to do anything he finds reprehensible, it’s a cause he can stick with. The Regency, conversely, has already used torture on their number, and 76 isn’t exactly interested in what they have to say when they seem to have a penchant for getting into the heads of their soldiers, quite literally.
He has no guarantee that COST hasn’t crossed that line, but until he knows for sure (and he might not ever know for sure), they seem to be the team to side with, if the Regency is the alternative.
76 considers Ashitaka for a moment before nodding. He’s not about to say that his sleep is fitful and difficult to come by at best, so he spins it a different way.]

You get some rest. I’ll take first watch.
