[ yeah i'm sorry that i have to say that this is a mood for both of them. it's something of interest, the way kaveh handles these things. it's something maybe he'll poke around later. ]
You get what I mean, shitty wording or not. [ but he pauses as he thinks on it. ] Plus there's the idea that love means many things. [ he raises an eyebrow, gauging kaveh again. ] You don't have to tell me what it is. But you have a reason, right?
I do. [Get what Jonas means. When he thinks there's probably been enough time, he turns back to Jonas, scissors in hand, looking contemplative as he decides what to say.]
I want to try and find some way to save as many of us as I can. [He settles on.] For now, that's my reason.
[He doesn't know if he could bear the cost of survival if he only thought about his own future. There's no way he can view himself as worthy of dozens of lives.
Also:] Would you rather I start from the front, or the back? [He thinks probably the front, given how skittish Jonas is, but he'll leave the choice up to him.]
[ it's a respectable answer. for a moment, jonas looks at kaveh as if he's trying to assess if it's true or not. and after a few moments longer, he nods. ]
Front's fine. Just a little. [ is what he says first, because yeah. he would prefer to know what's happening at the moment. it's only when kaveh approaches with the scissors and looks like he's close to starting that he speaks up again. ]
Pretty sure that's Alex's goal, too. So I get it. It's not a bad reason.
