[ Joonghyuk gives him a look cause lmfao what annoying. ]

I cannot die.

[ He will not allow it? His will to live is too much that he doesn't want to entertain the thought of death at all, not as a joke. ]

... Are you flippant because you're immortal?

Because you're a survivor~?

(There's a sing song quality to his voice. He's teasing.)

I'm not immortal.

(Just old.)

Because I have something I must do at home.

[ He will not accept teasing like this. ]

Immortal means you can't die, but you can be killed. [ ... ] This means your kind has a long lifespan?

(... Interesting but not unsurprising. Hm.)

Sometimes less, sometimes the same, sometimes more.

(Shrugging,)

To last as long as I have is a surprise.

Are you some kind of soldier?

[ Since he's named... After a sword? ]

For the time being.

Seems there are many of you here.

Then what will be there for you when you're no longer one.

(...)

A surprise.

... You can just say you don't know.

(Wow, don't call him out like this. He doesn't look too bothered byt it? But wow!!)

I told you, it's a surprise.

No plans. Nothing at all.

[ SURPRISES ARE BITTER. ]

(He shrugs. He's chatty and friendly enough but it looks like when it comes to some things, he's mum.)

Planning ahead all of the time is boring.

[ He has to remember other worlds aren't like the ones in his universe. ]

It has saved me countless of times.

[ His reason. ]

Do things always go according to plan?

... No, but I gained more minutes on my life.

[ His world is just like that. ]

Planning for minutes?

(Oof.)

I can't imagine it...

... I've experienced failure too many times.

[ So yes. ]

(...)

Humans sure have it rough.

(Maybe understating it.)

… Humans are also fortunately mortal, whether they like it or not.

[ Closes his eyes. ]

Time ending is a comfort.

(He sounds skeptical.........)

It depends on the ending.

Not everyone gets to choose their conclusion. Changing it is even more difficult.

Some things aren't meant to be changed easily.

And yet, humans keep trying. I'm always surprised.

Struggling is in our nature.

(Ah. Something about that seems to catch his attention,)

I suppose it is.

(Tch, this guy... he seems annoyed now? And he shifts in place,)

Well, it looks like we'll have to struggle here. This place isn't designed to be easy.

(Just look at the state of things! The dirt, the wear, the half feral children, the lack of answers.....)
