God, what a question. Taylor actually sets his mug on the beat up coffee table to think it over, picking at the plating of his gauntlets. "I try to not."
Honest enough, again. "It's all too big, you know?" He gestures upwards vagely with a grand sweep of his arm. "Save the planet, save humanity? That was too damn big for me in the army. Save EVERY planet, save EVERY living sentient race? Every possible variation of earth that ever was and will be?"
It's... York sags against the sofa, hand sliding down his face. "Too damn big. I can't get my head around it so...I don't. I take it mission by mission. That's easier. Save this group of people. Protect these kids. Back up this partner."
With about an inch between he holds up his pointer finger and thumb. "Small things. Day bay day. It's easier. I hope we have a shot. I do the best I can to make sure it happens cuz...that's all I can do, you know? A little like being back in the army but...bigger."
