He stood up, started making his way at a casual pace toward the vehicles. He waited until they were out of earshot before he said, "Only reason he's still in charge is 'cause ya'll have it decent behind these walls. Not sayin' what you've had to do with the Saviors in the past is any kind of hunky dory kumbaya shit, just... he ain't had to face nothin' that hard. People like him wouldn't survive without walls."
