[imperceptus]

do you suppose it is ever truly possible to escape the circumstances of your birth?
to escape destiny?

Destiny is what you make it. Always.

[imperceptus]

what if you CAN'T make it? what if someone's trying to make it for you?

[godslay]

Then you take it from them. By any means necessary.

[ ... That sounds pretty scary, but. Gamora had been willing to give up everything to take her destiny back for herself, and she knows it was worth it – especially given the master she'd served. ]

[imperceptus]

not all of us were born with such power.

[godslay]

Do you not have friends who would lend you their help?

[imperceptus]

my people are not well-loved, nor do we love well

friendship is rare for us

[godslay]

I can understand that.

[ She can really understand it. ]

Is it the same in this place?

[imperceptus]

i'm not as alone as i once was

but it's not like i can take anybody with me.

[godslay]

Then you mean to return?

[imperceptus]

can't stay here forever.

[godslay]

Is that not the point of this place?

[imperceptus]

if we ask to return, they put their resources to that effect.

it's just a matter of time

[godslay]

Yes, but you don't HAVE to go back.

[imperceptus]

i do

i really do.

[godslay]

They need you back home?

[imperceptus]

lives depend on it.

[ More precisely, a life. But he's fine with suggesting that it's a plural. ]
