[OA. Either a code name or initials or even, possibly, a hero's name. It feels...lucky, perhaps, that Cass has made this particular friend. She's pretty sure they'll be friends, anyway, she's made friends over more tenuous connections before.
She's also pretty sure that there's a word for this sort of end-of-life care OA is talking about, but Cass' vocabulary is pretty limited in that regard. ]
Sounds...good.
[ She doesn't mean that in the typical offhanded way that some teenagers would use the word 'good' in that statement. She means that it is impressive work, to care for someone at that stage, to listen to them, and that being where one is needed is rather important too.
She wrinkles her nose as she thinks about what she would want to do. ]
Help people.
[ Too vague, she knows. OA helps people but Cass is only a little bit good at being a listener in that way. ]

Protect them. Back home? A detective. Not police.
