Yeah, I don't think the 21st century is known for its wisdom.

[use_everything]

I can't recall a century on any planet that is. Seems to be a deficit of humanity in general.

[failureisntachoice]

Part of why I'm surprised your generation hasn't attempted to make any new life.

[use_everything]

There are plenty of rumors, some of them with enough groundwork to call them confirmed. In simpler times, I'd try not to think too much about it.

[failureisntachoice]

[ She shrugs. ] I meant more on the technological-front rather than organic.

[use_everything]

They go together, for us. Though I will say, you've not sold me on the concept of AI being tantamount of human folly at all.

[failureisntachoice]

Depends on who you ask, but we never get much free-reign to test that theory out.

[use_everything]

Busy with survival in general, yes.

[failureisntachoice]

Something like that. [ Most of her food finished, she pushes her plate towards the middle. ]

You can have the rest if you want.

[use_everything]

[He starts to wave it off and then stops, considering.]

We'll get a box for it. No sense in the waste.

[failureisntachoice]

Someone in the house will eat it.

[ There were enough people there for it. She waves down their server to make sure they get one brought with the check. ]

Are you heading back?

[use_everything]

Would you care to come with me?

[failureisntachoice]

Depends. Is the offer to move in still open?

[use_everything]

[He was signalling the check to himself when the question caught him, stilling him a moment.]

The offer remains. You are most welcome to stay.

[failureisntachoice]

[ A slow nod as she stares out the storefront window. ]

I might take you up on that.

[use_everything]

[He gives her privacy for that, signing the debit for the meal and tip. It's a few minutes of easy silence for that and getting the rest of the food boxed.]

Shall we go home, then?

[failureisntachoice]

[ Home. Does she even have that anymore? If not well... It might not be so bad to start making a new one. She nods and moves to stand. ]

Yeah, let's.
