Is there life out there?
[Aster:] It never encountered anything like us before. [Beryl:] Fermi paradox still going strong, no good news there.
[Aurelius:] Are we r-really alone?! Two sapient, intelligent things: some apes on a rock and the Visitor?
[Beryl:] Well, it only finds things that notice it first.
[Jasper:] Sybil noticed it because it obscured stars that should have been visible. [Aster:] She thought it might be a cloud of dust.
[Aurelius:] S-still... it's been traveling for so long, and it is so, so big.
And also
The Visitor: I should go.
The Visitor: I have never seen anything like you.
The Visitor: I have not thought before. This is also new.
The Visitor: I should go.
Would you answer a question?
The Visitor: Yes. What is the question?
Where are you from?
The Visitor: I am from a place that is black and cold and empty.
The Visitor: It is unlike your place.
The Visitor: I am the only one.
Are we really alone?
The Visitor: I have not seen another Sam.
The Visitor: But parts of me are far away.
The Visitor: It takes time to be aware of what I see.
What are you?
The Visitor: I am not Sam. Not human.
The Visitor: I cannot say what I am, but I could show.
Why did you do this?
The Visitor: Before this moment, I was not aware.
The Visitor: But now I am aware.
The Visitor: I do not mean to hurt Sam.
Where are you going?
The Visitor: A black, cold place with nothing.
The Visitor: Far from here.
Thank you, friend.
The Visitor: Friend? Yes.
