Tethered #134
LIAM
How long were you exposed for?
CARA
I’m not sure, 10-15 minutes? I can’t remember much from it.
PANEL 2
LIAM
That long? How did you manage to survive? Even after 5 minutes exposure I’ve seen people start to lose themselves.
CARA
Can you just give me something and I’ll go?
PANEL 4
LIAM
Now, I’m not going to pretend to know you, but I do expect you to at least show a bit more gratitude. We’ve stuck our necks out to help you and your friend.
CARA
I never asked you to.
PANEL 5
LIAM
However you were saved, the fact that you found us, you’ve got some luck there. Don’t take that for granted. Many of us here have fought for years to get where we are. All I ask is that you don’t take advantage of what you’ve been given.

Last panel, last sentence seems wrong. The typical meaning of ‘don’t take advantage” implies “don’t take unfair advantage”, but the context is all about how hard they all worked to get there. Maybe you meant “take for granted”?
“Don’t take advantage” is what I am wanting to imply, he is basically asking her to appreciate the kindness shown, and to understand what they had given her wasn’t easy to come by. To take for granted is to be unappreciative. I wanted more context than that 🙂
Where as in the previous sentence he does say “don’t take for granted”, because she was saved from the gas, she DOES need to appreciate that, as something like that may not always happen.
Love that sassy face in the third panel >:)
