More than it ought to. [He manages a bit of a crooked smile, with a hint of resignation to it.] Maybe you've noticed I'm not very good at minding my own business.
I'm also not very good at philosophy. Big questions. Things like, whether the future is set in stone, or if the Maker is guiding us all down some designated path, or if there's any way to change fate.
I don't know what I believe, honestly. But I don't believe that... that my death is so preordained that I couldn't have died before then. That I wasn't just plain lucky, rolling around on that cave floor. That nothing I do and no choices I make will affect my life.
Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe this is just some happy horseshit I'm telling myself so I can sleep at night. But I don't think people are meant to know how it works... you know?
