Jack is intensely startled when Kalki vanishes from in front of him,and he actually laughs when he sees the result, shakes his head at himself. "Forgot you could do that. Sorry for getting in the way then."

But he still stays his hand, because he listens. Kalki heard of them out, so he will hear her out. A natural evolution through science? He in particular sharply frowns when Kalki rebukes Chiaki. "We must have misunderstood this world you want to build, then. Beyond life and death, that stagnation you are describing is actually exactly our fear. How can things continue to change without that fear of death? I've resisted that change for thousands of years. The Time Lords even longer. In fact, they might be a better example. Because they did conquer death through their technology, and it led them to wall themselves away from the rest of reality, to sit and watch from their little glittering sphere and never change."

"You still don't have the right to make this choice for everyone else. Even with your design, then each one of us, Hero or not, is striving to become 'god' of our own world. It cant just be one person acting on everyone else, or, again, we stagnate, from what we see. But how is what you're offering different?" He sighs, and he smiles when he looks at Kalki again. "I wish we could do this forever, too. I've got the same love for you that you have for all of us. Just so we're clear."

Jack finally draws his sword again. "But if we're going to have to wait to continue this discussion? I've got the time." Jack smirks. "Neither of us is getting any older."

His double cast of Cura is aimed at Lust. Sorry that you got the brunt end of Kalki's teleport there.
