[there is a soft echo of that before lune seems to consider their answer thoughtfully]
I suppose it is simple to say that I am merely an old man.
I have lived a rather long life, though for a portion of it, I did not possess a will of my own to act as I desired. Someone granted me that ability - that chance - and I have since enjoyed it. I like to think that I have learned plenty in my time, though I still have more to learn.
We were offered a chance to oversee this series of events, even though we were not entirely told what we were agreeing to - we did not know that your deaths would be involved.
Even so... I feel as though this is the position in which I am best able to help, and it is now my responsibility to each of you to try to assist.
She doesn't know what she expected out of this line of conversation, but suddenly finding herself relating to Lune was not it. Uh.]
... I see. [Quietly, because. Well. What the fuck.] Then it looks like we have something in common.
[She won't specify which part, though. That's up to them to figure out.]
You didn't know the full details, but you still accepted. The universe must have given you one hell of a sales pitch, if you didn't find it suspicious. [...] Or maybe you're both stupidly naive.
You asked me if there is anything there might bring me joy aside from assuring the peace and safety of others. I believe there is someone’s peace of mind in particular that I would like to ensure... and I do not think that I would earn it if I allowed this opportunity to pass.
If there is something that I was chosen to do - I see no reason why I shouldn’t answer it.
Whatever becomes of me is acceptable, as this choice was my own.
So— You accepted because the universe promised it'd help someone you care about? You willingly offered yourself up as its errand boy for something like that?

Perhaps that is my 'deal'.

I hope you do not mind me - at the very least, as opposed to another unknown.

Thank you.
I am quite happy to have your company as well.

she's making a face, though.]
That's not what I said at all.

Then I hope you find it acceptable, if the sentiment is still the one that I extend to you, even if it is unrequited.
