[Ray has to think about the ethical implications of this to make up for the fact that Egon never considers the ethics of literally anything ever]

[He's not sure if he likes that or not. He doesn't acknowledge Annie for the time being, instead focusing all his attention on Ray and trying like hell to not fall apart.

It's stupid. This isn't a bad place to stay for eternity, after all. It's not like that time they all willingly went to the Netherworld to find Egon, willing to stay there in that little circle of hell for the rest of their lives searching for him if they had to.

Why does that comparison make him feel worse?]

You're not dragging me into anything, man. I've been thinking about this stuff, too. A lot.

[More than he wants to admit, really.]
