THE SHADOW KING :
Does it bother you.
What we do? Morally?
OLIVER BIRD,
MUTANT :
Hmm.
THE SHADOW KING :
Moral-ity.
OLIVER BIRD,
MUTANT :
Mo-rality.
Oh right.
The electrons that make up this car were part of a star once.
A star that exploded billions of years ago, killing any and all life that may have existed on hundreds of planets.
Or did it?
My Point :
If those atoms still exist,
if they are holding this car together as we speak, then --
Perhaps The Idea of Life and Death -
is obscene.
THE SHADOW KING :
Hmm.
OLIVER BIRD,
MUTANT :
Wait, maybe not obscene, but irrelevant.
What were we talking about again?
THE SHADOW KING :
Morality of Killing
Not.
Because you and I,
We are Not Human.
The Lion.
Does A Lion ask the morality of killing a deer, or a mantis of killing a hummingbird?
Homo supérieur
OLIVER BIRD,
MUTANT :
Melanie.
THE SHADOW KING :
So, you see The Morality
is not The Problem.
OLIVER BIRD,
MUTANT :
....I'm going to kill you, you know.
THE SHADOW KING :
Finally.
