ein himmelfahrendes und eins, das fällt

I'm sure you're all excited about this return to normalcy, if that's what it is, but I still have one question for our new lord and master.

Worlds like this one don't revive on their own, not from the inside. The power has to come from somewhere - usually someone. Someone human, in the real world.

So: Who rejuvenated this one?

[Furiosa listens. It sounds, honestly, like the kind of thing that doesn't really apply to her world, so she files it under a swing and a miss. Time won't do much for her world, any hand of it.

As for the shift in tone while discussing Daisuke- she notices, and files that away, too.]

And you think it applies to the boat.

[ She tried, anyway. ]

I think it's something similar. Maybe you can't feel it, but I can. This isn't the real world.

[That's a little abstract for her.

Furiosa waits, expectantly.]

[ It's an abstract feeling, okay? And he clearly doesn't think that's what she's waiting for because he completely ignores the silent question. ]

Whatever it is, it doesn't seem to have the same effect on humans as other, weaker worlds.

Thank you for explaining.

[Not the answer she'd hoped for, but she appreciates it, nonetheless, and disconnects abruptly without lingering for smalltalk.]
