<Snipped quote by Legend>

I guess so. I always felt so full when I made friends, and so empty when I lost them. But I lived off the memory, too. Kept me going. Still does.


Like Ruby?
<Snipped quote by Legend>

Sometimes it just feels... purposeless. Just trying to survive. There's no chance to dream, only live the next day. I made some friends along the way, close friends, but... I could never keep them.


So it’s important for you to have those kinds of lasting relationships to have meaning?
<Snipped quote by Legend>

It just feels... a little thrilling, to think about what I’m doing as something good. And not just surviving. Years spent running... takes a toll on your sense of self.


Does it? How is that?
<Snipped quote by Legend>

Honestly? I didn't really think about it. It's just what I do, now. It's all I've done for a long time.


I was curious, since you find it energizing.
<Snipped quote by Legend>

What, being a hero?


Mhm.
<Snipped quote by Legend>

Maybe you're right. *Laughs* I don't need the ego boost. *Grins and crosses my arms* It's a little bit energising, thinking about it that way.


Is that a goal of yours?
<Snipped quote by Legend>

I started this because... well, I knew things about a crime ring. When I became a PI, they came for me, and they were going to keep doing it again bless I dismantled them completely. So I had to. And then another ring trained their guns on me... and another, and another, as I did it again and again. It’s easy for me. I know how to do it. If nobody else will... then maybe I should.


Sounds like hero work to me.
<Snipped quote by Legend>

I guess so. Maybe it’s a duty I have to take for myself.


Where did that sense of duty come from?
<Snipped quote by Legend>

Maybe you’re right, then. *Leans back again, troubled* Brings on a whole new level of responsibility, to think about myself that way.


You don’t have to. It’s entirely your choice.
<Snipped quote by Legend>

Huh. I guess I imagine it with more... trappings. I ain’t flashy. Look at all these scars. *Chuckles*


I don’t think flashiness has to have anything to do with it. It can, but they don’t need to be intertwined.
