Kurt couldn't quite bring himself to meet Matt's eyes. An unfamiliar feeling of shame churned through him but the other Spartan couldn't say for certain what was causing it. Maybe admitting weakness even if it was in front of perhaps the only person on this base who could truly understand him?
"Me, ONI, it doesn't matter who failed them does it? They still died in the end and are continuing to do so despite my best efforts." Emotion made his voice rougher than he wanted.
He'd never been a melancholy sort of person and in point of fact, Kurt had been infamous for being one of the friendliest and most outgoing members of their class who'd always expressed an empathetic interest in the well-being of both his team and others. And that sensitivity was proving to be his undoing. "Now you understand just how monumental a task we have ahead of us, Matt."
