isn't this just so very cheery

[creidim]

Oh, one of those 'you had to be there' things. Right?

Still, you could have chosen to live, regardless. Run away instead. You never really know how things could have turned out, you might have been alright with choosing to live. That's more the usual option, isn't it? Choosing to live over choosing to die.

But you chose the harder option, the thing that goes against being very human and wanting to live. Even when you might not have necessarily had to. So yes, I do think it's selfless.

I don't envy her for making a choice like that. I can't imagine how hard that must have been for her, too.

they're here to have a good time clearly

you got it

idk what's usual. not a lot of people i met had a choice in their deaths for me to ask. but yeah. it's... fucking shitty. max shouldn't have had to have that on her shoulders. exhibit #58032 why life's not fucking fair ig

[creidim]

No, that's fair. I know the two times I died they just kind of... came out of nowhere. It was nice she asked for your opinion, though. It was your life, after all. But yes, life is often very much not fair.

[ There's a brief pause before she offers: ]

The answer is 'no', by the way.
