I was lucky to have been amongst my people for as long as I had.
I was more brusque, the brawn to another's brains, in what I would consider my youth. I was not without my faults, and to this day that is still true in other ways - but it was her that built such tenants into the world that we brought about, and I would honor her memory by upholding what we stood for even thousands of years later. Even here.

[ If one has a long life... they'll change over time. That's part of the joy of living. The people they meet, the bonds they forge. All of it is important.

She considers it. What is "Good"? ]
I... didn't have much time to consider philosophy in my life.
[ Always a battle to fight, always a "script" to try and change. ]
While we might have eight weeks here, for certain... it is eight weeks for us to learn new things about ourselves, just as much as it is about others.

Are there any hobbies that you would enjoy trying? I've dabbled in any number of things, and the angels are more than willing to try and provide us with things we request. Ramiel was able to get us some cleaning supplies after I asked, for example.

Mm. They were very accomodating when I asked about it, and there they were the following day. [ nodding, but.
oh! ] Sparklers? I wonder if we could find any or ask the angels for some... Liyue is well known for its fireworks during the Lantern Rite, so I'm familiar with them.
But, ah, Lantern Rite is a yearly festival in Liyue to welcome the new year. There are many fireworks, lanterns, sparklers, games... [ he trails off, as if thinking - but it's there and gone. ] You would like it very much, Miss Firefly, if you enjoy sparklers.

Oh, but I really like those little handheld fireworks. [Sparklers!]
