Story transcript

Mayuri: You? Perfection? Oh, you beautiful fossil—perfection is the moment curiosity dies. And apparently, you accepted your fate of a dead end.

Perfect Cell: Curiosity is what the imperfect cling to. I am complete; I need not grovel for scraps of knowledge or look for anymore creator power.

Mayuri: Complete... how tragically finite. Tell me, If your so 'complete' than how did you manage to be literally reduce to atoms by a mere child?

Perfect Cell: Because they had plot armor!

Mayuri: Then let's test inevitability. One tiny incision—just to see if your perfection can bleed stagnation.

Perfect Cell: You confuse surgery with suicide. No.

Mayuri: Observe: even the rose weeps when it realizes it will never grow another petal. Perfect, and therefore dead.

Perfect Cell: That's only because YOU pulled it out the ground.

Perfect Cell: Are we done? I think we are done. I rather not spend my afterlife in a endless dispute about perfection.

Mayuri: Your the one who came to me first. Insect, Shoo before you ruin my roses with such insolence!
