What a curious form of immortality. To be able to stay alive as everyone ages around you. I imagine there are as many advantages as disadvantages to such a state.

[That seems really old for a simple toy to have held up for so long, but then again, what did he know about how toys were made? It's not like he ever had any to judge by comparison.]

[yodelling]

It's not fun watching kids grow up and out of you if that's what you mean. I'm on my third kid now. It gets... well, it don't get any easier.

But it does mean I get to help multiple kids- and that's gotta mean something.

[survivalthroughhate]

I suppose being a toy, your purpose is at least clear cut. In my world, the Force supposedly guides us to our destinies, but sometimes, it is hard to see a pattern even with hindsight. I'm still not sure what the point of my life has been.

[yodelling]

Sometimes even toys can lose their way. I know I did for a real long time. One of my owners wasn't a kid.

But you find people who can help you find your way back to who you're supposed to be. There's always folk like that, eventually. Even if it might take a while for them to find you.

[survivalthroughhate]

I know how that can be. I lost over ten years of my life being in such a state.

I thought for a long time that I had lost all those in my life who were like that. But perhaps that is why I was brought here. To find such people again.

[yodelling]

[Well. That's horribly familiar.]

I was kept in a box for thirty years. I wanted to go live in a museum at the point 'cause even life behind glass was better than life in storage.

It took Woody showing up for me to learn that life could be so much better than either of those options.

I'm glad you've got a chance to find happiness here. You should grab it with both hands, if you do.

[survivalthroughhate]

A box? That sounds like the worst sort of torture. You have my sympathies.

[Even Sidious had let his apprentice move around the facility on Mustafar as a child, despite all his distaste for doing so. He knew his small apprentice would wither and die if left in a single room all the time.]

Perhaps. But sometimes, for someone like me, happiness hurts.

[yodelling]

It wasn't the best time of my life, no.

[But you know, she's not gonna go deep-delving into her emotionally scarring trauma just now.]

Doesn't that make it all the more worth it? The risk of it hurting?

[survivalthroughhate]

Sometimes. And other times, the pain that results when it is lost is far worse than it would have been had I never known it at all.

[yodelling]

...Yeah. But that's the thing. It never lasts forever.

[survivalthroughhate]

I suppose I will simply have to see how long it will last this time.

[Much as he knows he shouldn't, Maul hopes that it might be longer than he thinks. He craves things like happiness and connections with people, despite not really knowing what to do with them once he has them.]
