[Fuck.

On the one hand, the temptation is there to say something crude and horrifying about his situation to cut off the line of questioning. On the other hand, he really wants storytime. Hm.

...He decides to split the difference and go for something vague that should still be interesting.]

well, before i wound up here, my friends were chasing a serial killer in this town that was tearing itself apart with riots?
low-grade action movie shit at best
definitely not as cool as spaceship lion robots

[marmoron]

so were you and your friends detectives or masked vigilantes?

[ Superheroes. He means superheroes and is trying to avoid that specific verbiage. The multiverse has been ... interesting to say the least, and Keith isn't convinced anyone here truly has a mundane life. Or well. Maybe some do. But it doesn't seem proportional. ]

and honestly i'm not sure i'd call being in a war and trying to survive in deep space "cool"

[hedonistic]

detectives, technically

[Not that he's ever considered himself one. He doesn't have the formal training Kogami had before the university system was dismantled.]

the second thing only happens in comics

[beat.]

and that one superhero universe i guess

[HE'S NOT BITTER!!11]

peace isn't exactly all its cracked up to be either
well, if you're not one of the people meant to benefit, anyway

[Japan's propaganda always claimed that the only reason they were able to avoid the wars raging outside its borders is because of the Sibyl System. But now he knows there are other versions of Japan out there that don't have it, and manage not to be war-torn, either. It sucks.]

honestly? the way some people talk about their lives, i'm pretty sure some of them might as well be from some messed up comic book world

[ He's really talking about Sanji here, but Keith may as well be talking about hims own life, too. What is self awareness anyway? ]

but peace is pretty great if you ask me
unless you're talking about one of those secret dystopian societies where there's something nefarious going on that's "meant to maintain law and order"
i've seen at least one of those.
