It's in your dormitory. Could you not just make it permanently nighttime?

Just because I don't enjoy the light doesn't mean I should deprive others. But BARiTONES has wasted no effort in ensuring all rooms have a day and a night cycle at minimum, and some even can change the time of day.

[Great! Because he's going to plop down near the waves just out of reach of getting wet.]

Though it is sight to be here under the stars.

[with some reluctance, plopping down with him]

And we're here... to enjoy the sea?

Precisely.

We are here to remember why we toil. For what purpose. Don't think I didn't see your profile name. I'm sure you wander from place to place, helping every unfortunate soul you can find.

But I selfishly want a few serene moments for you.

...

[there is so much he could say about all of that, quite a lot of which he is incapable of saying because of his corruption, but]

Why is that a selfish desire for you?

A long and convoluted story saved for when you remember. Hence, why it is selfish. I am imposing on you.

But I have no doubts you will push your self. Beyond limits even.

...Yes, I get the feeling that's the kind of person I am.

Which is why you get a relaxing beach vacation day to yourself. It is naught as if there is much you can do at the moment anyway. Plans put on pause as we play games from the Producers.

[He takes the umbrella and plants it in the sand for some shade as he is already starting to burn.]

Though I can leave you to brood in silence if you want time to yourself.

...No, I'd like to keep talking with you. My own selfish wish, if you'd like.

You must be feeling lonely if you find my presence comforting.

[Since he has the umbrella, he takes off the shades and places them on top of his head.]

Have you decided on a name?

I'm considering Dignity.

And why does it resonate with you so?

[shrugs]

Who knows. I just picked something that sounded good.

I suppose I can hardly judge. I picked my name not only because it was a drink, but I enjoyed the irony of it being the Primal of time.

And you can always change it if you don't like it.

Hopefully I'll remember my real name soon and it won't even matter.

Oh? Would you allow me to call you by it?

Certainly.

Well then. When you remember yours, I'll give you mine. Perhaps we can start off on a better foot this time.

...I would like that.

[He pats his shoulder.]

You know. I think I would as well.

It's hard to imagine why we wouldn't get along just fine, with how welcoming you have been.

I could be aggressive, but you can't die permanently so it would simply be wasted effort on my part.

I've also been scolded to 'broaden my horizons'. Try something new as it were. And if doesn't work, I suppose I will fall back to my normal routine.

And what would the normal routine be?

Fixing the mess that would be heroes left behind.

[...

he wants to make a snide comment about that so bad but he can't, so he's just staying silent even though that's probably weird as well]
