Johnny wasn't really expecting that question, and he looks a little surprised at first, and then turns thoughtful, looking down into his drink.

"Huh. Good question, man. Survival? All I've ever been doin' is fighting, so I guess it comes natural. Been through too much to just give up now. Besides, people are counting on us. And most Heroes wanna go home. So I guess that's why I do it. Maybe one of these days, people won't be out to kill me, and I'll actually get to relax. Lookin' forward to that day."

While he hadn't planned to go home, that doesn't mean he couldn't help others do the same. And since he planned to make Crystallis his permanent home for as long as possible, he'd like it to stay in one piece.
