[Bill] I felt the need to thank you, again. Your gift has helped keep me off the edge of insanity more than once, this past week. Unfortunately, my efforts at repayment have all reached terrible ends, but if you'd like to see the notes I've developed from the botched attempts, I can send them to you.

[Old Friend] Have you been asleep all this time, you old louse? Wake up, the day has come and passed you by.

[Gojyo] How have you been, friend? I get the sense I might have put you off, the last time we spoke.

I... should have refused your offer from the beginning. I was putting my hunger before your safety. I am no longer having an issue with food, if you would believe. You're under no obligation to... do that, to yourself. I don't wish to scare off one of the few people who have been kind to me, since I arrived.

All of the technology available to this day and age, and still you can find nothing better to show on television late at night, than pornography. I dare say, this renews my faith in the world.

And where, old friend, have you been? I never heard you leave.

The phrase 'quiet like the dead' is both colorful similie, and startlingly accurate.

I went... out. Took a walk. Harassed street performers. As I used to.

It's a sweet story, Kai. You don't have to lie. Just tell me it's none of my business.

It's not that it isn't any of your business, Rurik, I just simply wasn't expecting my admitting to wanting to watch the sun rise to go over well.

Before you get started, it's not like that. Bill Turner stopped by. Had a gift, for me, he had offered to construct. A talisman.

I can walk among the living again, Rurik.

You...and you didn't tell me? I...you...

A talisman? And you're certain it's...respectable?

He only delivered it a day or so ago. I hadnot been willing to test it, until this morning, and I didn't... I didn't wish to tell you and get your hopes up, in case it failed.

It is respectable. I spent the day outside, with no ill effect.




You're upset.

I'm not...all right. perhaps a little upset. I would have liked to have spent this day with you, seeing you discover the world by day, delighting with you in those discoveries.

There is still a sunset to be had. And a sunrise tomorrow. I assure you, old friend, there is much still left to see. And while my impatience got the best of me this morning, you know I would be honored to explore the new and changed world with you, now that I can.

Where are you, Old Friend? I should like to come to you, now. Before the sun sets.

I... I don't even know. I followed the sun West, with those transports. I believe I've ended up in Maui. It would seem you're about due for a sunrise, instead. I will come to you.

All right. Shall we meet at the water's edge? I do fancy a sunrise over the water.

You didn't put me off. I put me off a bit. But you're fine.

Alright. I just... wanted to be sure. I was in a bad place when I saw you- it was reckless for me to have done so at all.

You deserve an apology for that.

You don't need to apologize. I shouldn't have offered, and I knew that. I do stupid things when I'm around you, though, I guess to qualify that I'd have to be able to say there's a time when I don't do stupid things.

I have no right to make that worse, though. Really. I never wished to cause you problems.

And for the record, I have centuries of stupid idea on you, I'm certain of it. There is no shame in that.

I didn't want to pull you into the middle of everything, either. Don't worry about it. I know you didn't wanna hurt me.

Oh, I use to be a god, now I'm this. Just think of the horrible ideas I must have had for karma to give me this.

...That actually explains a lot. Then again, do you really think Karma had anything to do with this place? It seems randomized.

I don't mean this place. This place... I have a beautiful little girl here. Karma has nothing to do with this place or I never would have had that.

You meant-

Right. You have a daughter? I take it that's not... common, for Gods where you are from?

I... I think I just said something really confusing.

I actually, literally, meant, in a past life. I was actually a god. In 'Heaven'. Then I died and karma kicked my butt, made me a halfbreed, gave me a mother whom I was destined to hurt, etc, etc. I don't really remember everything that happened before, but I did something pretty bad.

And I missed the mark on attempting to allow you to pass that story by. I imagine it's not easy to think of. I... understand that, at least.

I don't talk much about my past cause I don't want people feeling sorry for me, not cause I don't wanna think about it. I couldn't stop thinking about it if I tried. I brought it on myself anyway.

And yet, it brought you here and now. And you have a daughter, and friends, and assumedly a chance to live as you couldn't before. It can't be all bad. At least not what you're making of it.
