[Hope's voice is clear and clipped.]

If you would like to leave a message, you may do so here. I can't promise to respond. I have many demands on my time, and this sort of thing is far down the list. Still, if you would like to, you may.

That is an explanation, but it does not make it right. However, I suppose if we had been more like you, we would have been much more careful with the Null.

Didn't say it did.

( If anything, she's seen all the reasons it very much isn't right, but Kate bites her tongue on the cynical comment about how — if the gods had been more like humans — they'd probably try and subjugate the Null instead. No matter how true it is. )

Multiverse doesn't need more humans.

( Or superhumans. She can't be so sure whether it needs more of the non-humanoid ones, though. )

You aren't so terrible. What do you think it needs more of, then?

( Isn't that the question. A hum of thought leaves Kate's lips as she mulls it over. )

... Understandin'. People who can meet new things and not try to kill 'em.

( People who are better at dealing with both the new and their emotions better than humans are. )

That, I would agree with wholeheartedly.

[He sighs, quietly. An attempt to seem more human, perhaps, because of course this body doesn't need to breathe.]

Perhaps it is foolish to believe we can manage that, but I would like to.

( Maybe just too much time spent around humans. And maybe she's spent a bit too much time in this temple.

... There are worse places to be. )

Guess we'll try.

( If they make it out of here alive. )

We will try. If nothing else, it seems that we are all good at that.

( Kate hums in response, rocking back and using the momentum to let herself spring back to her feet.

That's all they have. But, hey, that's all anyone has ever had. The desire to try, the passion and need propelling them forwards in anything they do. )

Better see you when this is done.

( In other words: don't die, jerk, you're her favourite god. )

I intend to be here when it's all over.

[One way or another.]

We both will be. You are a survivor - it seems I am, as well.
