"When I was alive, I'm not sure I could have told you either. At least not toward the end. I thought the world was ending, and I lived like it was. And died like it was too. And maybe that world did end; Lucifer couldn't tell me, or wouldn't."
Midvalley tried not to think of all the lost ones: Nick, Dominique, poor broken Hopperd.
"I thought here would be like that too, to be honest. You meet people and if you hook up it's because you both might die the next day. But then I met Jazz, and now maybe this world isn't ending as fast as I thought. And if someone's going to reach out to me and give me something to appreciate in life besides my music and winning this damn game..."
Midvalley realizes he sounds actually sentimental.
"Well, maybe you still don't get it. I don't mean that as an insult, though. Some people don't get music either."
