#wrong side of right

Am I the only one that thinks you should get some kind of buff when you use Wrong Side of Right and Right Side of Wrong together?

Seriously, Bungie dropped the ball on this one. They had every chance.

Wrong Side of Right || Self Para

The thought terrified Jon.

There was nothing that tore Jon up more than the thought that he wouldn't be able to serve again -- the military commander that Atlantis, that he, needed to be -- he couldn't leave Atlantis. Not now, not after he knew what it was like to have a family, to have a home. 

However, when Hadley was with him, he felt safe -- he felt like he belonged once more and that everything would be OK. He would try his best for Hadley, remembering how Hadley had looked and acted when Jon was on the verge of death -- Jon couldn't put Hadley through that again, he couldn't leave him here.

He had been so emotionally drained over the past couple of days, and he was having trouble with dealing with anything -- let alone speaking with people. So far, he had managed to keep up his usual calm demeanour with minor discrepancies  but he wasn't sure how long he could keep that up.  He couldn't pretend that nothing had changed, the shadow of his life hanging over him. 

He would never be the Ranking Military Officer he once was, there was no way that his men and the citizens of Atlantis could possibly see him as a member of authority when they had seen him so weak. That was why he had to maintain the façade that everything was alright, so that the emotional damage to the city was minimal. They needed a leader, not a cripple.

Hadley was not there at that moment, and Jon couldn't contain himself. He started to cry. Silent tears leaking down his cheeks as he stared up at the ceiling thinking about the life that awaited him. A life filled with pain and inability to do anything of use in the future, sure he would be given honourable discharge from the military. But the military was his life, he had nothing else to offer the world, he wasn't good at anything else. His chest hurt and his breaths caused a feeling of anxiety to build in his stomach as he tried to stop himself from being so weak, from displaying that he was no longer in control of himself.
