“I do. I guess we can put some of them down as a test.”

"Are your random genocide victims going to be comfortable here or are you thinking, like, your family and friends and stuff?"

“People who died in accidents in the last couple of years. So they will be able to reintegrate straightforwardly.”

"It might make sense to get your family and friends later."

“They won’t be able to reintegrate at all, everyone they knew is dead and everything they knew is gone. I don’t think there’s much reason to bother.”

"They could go somewhere else. And in this situation people being dead is fixable."

“Sure. I just think we have billions of higher priorities.”

"Maybe you won't add another few billion if your friends are around."

“Well, they’re hardly going to still be my friends.”

"Oh, pardon me, I forgot that people who no longer think highly of you are better off dead and that's why I was messily annihilated the other week."

“It’s an easy thing to forget.”

"You were messily annihilated?"

"Sarcasm. I explained sarcasm."

“I feel like the ability to resurrect people makes your friends’ opinions pretty reparable.”

“Says the kid who has never in his life done anything that might make anyone think less of him.”

“But if I did once by accident I wouldn’t immediately give up on them!”

Do you have perspective on this -

I'm kind of confused. I think she's - somewhere between 'relying on the fact there's no one alive she cares about for her bargaining position' - not with us, necessarily - and 'doesn't want to owe us a favor' and 'scared she won't care about them anymore'.

Who else is she bargaining with? The Presger?

Must be. I guess they did kill a lot of her friends to teach her a lesson a while ago.

If she's interpreting them right.

Yeah. I think she's right that her friends aren't a priority, anyway.

Yeah, recent accidental death is probably good.

"Are anyone's worlds likely to impose restrictions on who can be resurrected - lots of countries forbid resurrection of a person who was executed, for example -"

"Well, we can't take anyone back until we've sorted that out. I don't expect we'll care if people resurrect them somewhere else?"
