[ hm... let's walk and talk, molly. off he goes. ]
Tell ye the truth, I wasnae convinced the wish thing was real when it was sold to me. But I figured I didnae have much to lose, so I thought I'd try it. And I'm still not entirely convinced, after everything. So when I say I've got a wish, keep in mind it's not the kind I'd do anything to see granted.
[ that disclaimer aside, he shakes his head ]
But even now I've got two wishes I could make. One's the safe bet, really, stopping a man with the power to destroy our whole planet. The other... [ he looks back up at molly and seems almost sheepish ] It's a selfish thing. About three weeks ago now, right before I landed here, a friend died. And I thought, maybe--a wish could bring her back?
Would you believe I'm in almost exactly the same situation?
[ like. his wish conundrum is nearly identical. ]
... Don't know if it soothes or worries you more, but they said the wishes can be pretty broad. Maybe there's a way to do both, with some clever wording.
[ ... ]
And for what it's worth I don't think there's anything wrong with a bit of selfishness. Sometimes it's whats needed.
... For a friend, or for yourself? Pardon me for asking, it's only... You've said you've died plenty.
[ he doesn't judge either way (and obviously Cannot) but. curious. still, he shakes his head again. kitty ears go flop flop ]
Ach, trust me, I've been plenty selfish throughout my life. This just feels like the kind of thing I should aspire to be selfless about, maybe. [ to do both, though... he does seem like he's considering that. ] Well, it probably won't matter. We were in last before and I doubt losing more members like this will catapult us into first place.
