Are they--

[ Frowns for a second like he's wordsmithing this. Then just kinda decides 'fuck it' ]

Are they okay? In general?

...I think...that depends on what you mean by "okay".

[ Man he don't know either. What does "okay" even look like because he's never witnessed it. ]

I guess I mean . . .

Does their life continue to have value to them?

Ah.

[falls quiet as he actually thinks about it]

Honestly, I'm not close enough to most of them to ask that kind of question. But the nature of their existence does make me believe that their lives hold value to them. Each and every one of them became strong enough to survive the destruction of their worlds, and struggled to live. The system they're working with was set up for them to try and prevent the destruction of more worlds. They've been helping me this whole time. And even if...the situation with the source was somehow resolved, I don't get the impression that they would just pass on. I don't even think they can. They "fall asleep" for a while.

[ Existential dread increases just a little bit more, but he seems to accept that answer. ]

I see.

It sounds . . . tiring.

Does it? Well, working with the system sounds like a crap deal. But living for that long sounds nice.

Would you reach for it, if it were possible?

...I think most people would. No one wants to die.

[ HAHAHAHAHA YEAH WHO WOULD WANT TO DIE? ]

... I guess.

[Minuet. buddy,]

Do you not like living for that long?

How would I know? I'm not a thousand years old.

Yeah, but you're over a hundred, and you're kind of making it sound like you're not that into it. Is it because you're lonely? You can just make friends with my bro--

[hmm. no not that one.]

--with Yerim. I have to ask her about help to terraform your planet anyways.

[ ?????? ]

Your brother?

He's S-Class. Yerim is too. So is Peace, and Gyeol and the twins will live for a long time. They've got each other, of course, but it would be nice if they had a few more people to spend their time with.
