[Filtered to Guy//~~Ridiculously hackable~~ Unhackable]

Hey, Guy? My hair's getting kind of long... Could you come cut it for me? I'd do it myself, but I can't really see back there...

[Filtered to Ion//~~So hackable it hurts~~ Unhackable]

Ion, can I talk to you? It's important.

[Now that those are out of the way, Luke rests his chin in his hand and stares off to the side, lost in thought. The thing he wanted to talk to Ion about... It's been weighing heavily on his mind ever since he heard it. Luke isn't sure what to think of it, or even how to feel about it. There's a sort of happiness inside him, sure, but... he can't deny the hesitation and confusion he feels. So, after a few minutes, he opens up the journal again to ask the general populace:]

What do you think it means to have a soul?

[If he notices he's welcome to ask about it.]

Well, wouldn't you be born with it? Without a soul any creature wouldn't be alive, they would be like the dirt or rocks that are not alive rather than being able to move and think like any of us can.

Do you think that's what it means to have one? To be alive? Not just a person?

I definitely think so. Each living creature seems to be able to think and feel even if we don't understand them. That is what makes them different from inanimate objects like rocks.

[But what if you're not real? Still... he has a soul. Cheyenne confirmed it. Is that what it means? To be alive?]

... I don't know. Having a soul sounds like such a big deal.

It could be. Do you think being alive is a big deal then?

Well, yeah! No one wants to die...

Then it would seem that having a soul is important, because without it, there wouldn't have been a chance to be alive. But then, it is said in my own world at least that a soul lives on even after death.
