...If you wanted to share some kind of message with a younger version of yourself, what would you say?

[Simon's in the plaza today, hanging out by the fountain and pondering his journal. At some point he might be scribbling out a note on a loose sheet of paper.]

pondering one's fate, garlock

He lived on. He searched for a new purpose, a new way of living. And even when he lost that, he still clung to life, fighting and never giving up. A very admirable man.

He must have been strong...

[Pause.]

I guess that works for some people, but I don't see it working for me.

I don't have anywhere else to go once the Malnosso decide to make me leave this place.

You could find a place for yourself. That's just a part of being alive.

Yes, and that is why it wouldn't work for me. I'm not alive anymore.

[...Ah. That would be a problem, then.]

I'm sorry...

You don't have to apologize. I died the way I wanted to die. Of course, that makes being stuck here even more annoying than it would have been otherwise...

The way you wanted to die...? [That's just depressing.] Have you been here long?

[He doesn't seem to think so, but he's pretty twisted.] A few months now, but this is my second time here. I was only gone for a few weeks before they dragged me back.

Couldn't you find yourself a new purpose here? You're alive in this place, after all.

What's the point when I could just get taken back at any time?

Well... it's just me, but I'd rather die with a purpose, or looking for one, than to just give up on everything.

There's something we can agree on: I already died for a purpose once. But I never asked to be returned to another meaningless life afterward.

I doubt many people want to be here. But if you have to be here for a while, why not make the most of it?
