Not exactly. There are others like me, but we keep to ourselves. I've seen one or two, heard of them across the galaxy, but I don't think I'd exactly work well with the notorious ones. [ a hum. ]
In any case, the longer Boothill keeps that bounty of his up, the less I have to worry about my own.
[ she is thinking, what happened to feixiao and moze? she's trying to wrap her mind about what happened.... is this a curse.... is this a weekly thing..... what happened.... did her memory fail her... wha hapen ]
[ if only she could treat why she's so old as a joke, she would go along with it. ]
You're not wrong, but... it's kind of literal for me? I'm like a replica. I'm not the real Elysia, but I'm still Elysia because I'm all her memories she uploaded.
[ it's not something she grapples with. it's something she lives, and because she is elysia, copy or not, she is too sure of herself in that way. even so, what he says makes her heart warm. her smile is just that much softer. ]
no subject
[ she did tell him that she'd tell him more about her many years. ]
If you'll be here, of course I will.
no subject
[ ear flicky... the way he's telling people lore this week but it isn't his lore so everybody is confused. ]
The Hunt's a path. Us Galaxy Rangers, you see, we follow that path, after the aeon Lan. THEY have an eye for justice.
I'm a little less interested in the violence for violence creed and more the... protecting the weak part.
no subject
confused is right.
what makes elysia slightly confused is the eye for justice. she knows he's a healer or a doctor of some kind, so this is confusing her. ]
That is like you to look after the weak and less fortunate. You go out of your way to help. Do you have partners as a Galaxy Ranger?

Boothill is a new name.

You do like to stay hidden when you can, huh?
no subject
I stay out of the way, sure.
[ he does a stupid little hat tip motion. he is not wearing a hat. ]
It's only that I don't need the spotlight. I'd just like to do my work and move on through the universe.
no subject
I don't know. I'd like to shine the spotlight on you sometimes.
no subject
[ gives her a smile. ]
But I do want to know more about you, Ellie, as you promised. So you can stand there first, hm?
no subject
no subject
Hm. [ ... ] Then, forgive my rudest question - how is it that you're as old as you are?
no subject
[ she smiles. ]
I'm a simulation, made of memories. I existed in a realm created by memories.
no subject
A simulation? [ huh. ] Well... we're all made of memories, I'd argue, but I'm sure that's not what you mean.

no subject
It's hard to say that you aren't the real Elysia, in that case. Flesh and blood doesn't necessarily make up a person.
no subject
Yeah. I agree. And I'm real to you, aren't I?
no subject
[ a little smile. ]
no subject
[ hehe ]
Anything I experience is real to me.
