A LOW AND MIRTHLESS laugh falls from bitter tongue . “ you’re a real piece of work ky , you know that . ” cobalt hues dance with a fierce passion , looking up at the other . “ unlike you , i don’t take the coward’s way out . unlike you , i have a sense of morality and duty . unlike you , i have a conscious . ” words flow from ross’ lips without his permission . but he’s on a roll know . “ you don’t think i don’t know that ? thano’s reach extended far beyond the planet and system . but correct me if i’m wrong , this became the epicenter when thanos took the first of his final stands here . we held the most infinity stones . we became the roadblock or the problem in thano’s way . so yeah , for right now , this does revolve around earth and her people . ”
“FAIRLY PUT,” he said. “however, i remain unconvinced.” ross’ words rang true, but ky… as much as he tried wouldn’t see it that way. thanos may have ended half of all life. could have even ended everything, but he chose to leave some alive. maybe, if things were different, ky could have attempted to see it his way, but it didn’t look like it. not anytime soon in-fact either. “you have your morality an’ duty. i DON’T have any of that – i go home now an’ maybe i won’t get SKINNED alive.” a pause. “i do mean skinned – not the metaphorical version either.” in truth, he could have said much more, but instead, he moved to poke a finger right into ross’s chest – something he knew he’d regret, but done all the same. “this isn’t my war… it’s humanities very own.”
