----
Even knowing who’s running the broadcasting station, he watches the programs it transmits. Boredom had set in a long, long time ago and now he’s just filling his time.
He’s surprised at the twinge of amusement he feels when he hears about his impending fatherhood on the news. The part of him that still remembers what it was like to be human - who once longed for a family - wishes it was true.
A larger part however, is glad he never had children. The chance they too would have lived longer than is natural is too great.
He is not selfish.
