I...

Maybe I shouldn't have kept all the weeds alive.

[ He turns the camera to show a weed pile, overgrown, tangled, and spreading. It's horrifying, but has a lot of nice wildflowers poking out. ]

Does anyone... want wildflowers?

...I think I prefer it this way.

You've done well, Zane. Keep it just like that.

[godsays]

It's going to start hurting the other plants.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Let it. Survival of the fittest dictates that the more worthy plants will survive.

[godsays]

If they're beautiful enough that we take care of them, that's a reason for them to survive, isn't it?

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Do you find value in beauty? Or do the weeds serve some more important purpose?

[godsays]

I do find value. I find value in life, and in beauty.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

What will you lose if the weeds die?

[godsays]

The wildflowers.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Prune them and place them elsewhere.

[godsays]

That's what I did.

That's why this is happening.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

Then you need to make a choice about which flowers you prefer to keep around.

[godsays]

I know.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

What are your plans now?

[godsays]

[ A sigh. ]

Give them away. Kill the rest.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

I should like a sample, if you're killing them off.

[godsays]

What for?

[keeps_a_cool_head]

For what reason do you keep them around?

[godsays]

I didn't want to kill anything.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

You of all people should know that death is just as important as life.

[godsays]

Of all people?

[keeps_a_cool_head]

You died and came here.
