REDEMPTION IS MEANINGLESS. REPENTANCE IS FOLLY. YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE.

That is categorically false, and the fact that you think like that makes you far more pitiable and sad than I thought possible.

YOUR PITY IS UNWELCOME AND UNNEEDED. I AM EVERYTHING I WANT TO BE, AND I WILL SOME DAY HAVE ALL THAT I DESIRE.

You know that it won't happen that way. Why not attempt a different course in life, one where you aren't so pathetically hated and laughed at by most of the multiverse?

AND WHAT I WOULD DO? WHAT WOULD I BE? LORD ENGLISH, THE FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD FAST FOOD CASHIER? HAA. DON’T MAKE ME LAUGH. I AM MY OWN DESTINY. MY OWN FATE. TO BE ME IS TO BE ME.

I forget you have a limited imagination. There's untold wonders in the multiverse, Caliborn. No one even said you had to be friendly--maybe just work on being less of a prick.

I WOULD BE HATED REGARDLESS. IT IS BETTER TO REVEL IN IT. TO REIGN OVER IT.

Hm.

HM?

Your assumption is simply a sad one. You're not even completely hated now, I don't know why you would assume becoming less of a colossal murderous prick would not change things. You're not exactly reigning over things too successfully now. You're being pranked and robbed like a Saturday morning cartoon villain. Destroying everything will simply leave you with nothing and no one. Are there no better aspirations?
