[ Childe doesn't flinch but he does blink in slight surprise at her fake out. She's sure acting like a loose cannon, but she hasn't physically lashed out yet, either. That's pretty good, he thinks. Despite her situation, she's not having a meltdown that forfeits her full control. ]
Oh? You'd do that for lil' me? And here I don't even know your name! I'll still get in trouble, though, because even if you do kill me, I'll just come back, anyway.
[ Childe shifts to stand up now, considering what to say next.] The Pleroma will label us villains and evil for our ways, but you seem like a smart girl that knows nothing is that simple. You will definitely have a hard time in their ranks with your willingness to kill and destroy instead of using it as an absolute last resort.
Personally, though... "my" side is the only path I see having an ending to this conflict that we didn't ask to be dragged into. I don't want to be here forever, I want to be go back home. The only feasible way to do this seems to be purging this place and letting it start anew. The other side... I just don't see "their war" ever having an end. So, I guess that's the other thing.
Are you willing to be here forever to "protect life," that's already beyond redemption on its own? I don't really see any reason to do, especially since it's this place's fault we're here.
