If you knew you were going to die

How would you feel? what are you meant to feel?

[ Vivi is not even remotely tech-savvy enough to know how to conceal his identity, so this is a great look into his mental state right now.

[Oh god how did this end up going this way??]

there's a difference in "this is a bad thing" and "this makes me feel like crap"

murder, sickness, being a jackass to people = bad things

feeling sad, arguing, seeing someone else be sad = sucks but not inherently bad, they just suck

oh

that makes sense.

so death is one of those things that feels bad but isnt cos it happens to everybody, right? [ Just a natural, predicted thing...

It makes sense. But it doesn't quite soothe him. ]

exactly. still sucks for most people but it's not *bad*. for some people it's even a good thing
