He shook his head. "Not just them. We did too. That's what they taught us."

And that had to be why some part of his brain wouldn't shut up about the horrible practicality of looting the bodies.

There were DC-15s all over the field. Fully stocked utility belts. Helmets. None of them keyed to his ID chip, but he could probably slice that, given enough time. There was some part of him that wanted to try and pick them up.

None of it was real. None of it should've been real. But he couldn't stop thinking about it anyway.

He gritted his teeth, trying to look toward the horizon instead. "How do we get this damn thing to go away?"
