*Didi and Scythe are walking along the OCW backstage area. They turn down a corridor and are surprised to find Kunk sitting alone on a bench staring off blankly into space with a creepy smile spread across his hideously painted face. The two pause and look at him for a second and then turn to look at each other with puzzled expressions. Didi gestures at Scythe with a little head nod to move towards Kunk so he does. Didi turns the other direction and begins to leave. As Scythe gets closer to the bench, Kunk turns his head and stares off towards Didi's direction as she walks away.*
Kunk: They call her "Endless", but even hers is a brief and bounded existence. Neither her nor the Others like her will last longer than this version of the Universe.
*Kunk turns his head away from Didi's direction and looks up at Scythe as if expecting a response. Scythe remains standing next to him, and smiles*
Scythe: That's hardly uncommon knowledge is it Kunk?
Kunk: Knowledge? huh-huh-huh-ha... perhaps not, but who cares about knowledge eh? "No man dies for what he KNOWS to be true. Men die for what they WANT to be true, for what some terror in their hearts tells them is not true."
Scythe: Really? I wouldn't have thought that you buy into that line of thinking Kunk. What with being the courageous truth seeker that you are and everything. Hard truth above false comfort, / "I gave my heart to know wisdom..." and all that jazz.
*Kunk looks away from Scythe and goes back to staring blankly at the wall*
Kunk: mmmmm.... it's funny that way. On the one hand, you're right Scythe, I have seeked truth - I sought after the "light", and I have seen more than I wished to see. More than I ought to have seen...... But on the other hand, I've finally come to understand that the closer you get to the light, the greater your shadow becomes. The Morning Star brings forth the light indeed, but with it always come the shadows, and the lies.
*Again He looks back up at Scythe with his vacant white eyes and a sick yellow-tooth-ed grin*
Kunk: "Little monster, little Fiend, come here, sit beside the lord of lies. I shall tell you such tales......"
