“They sound like decent people to me.” Nen smiles. “I bet their afterlife is a peaceful one.”

"He was murdered for forcing improvements upon the people of his world, and his android creations destroyed. His computer continued his work and was destroyed, but sent me into space beforehand."
There's no trace of emotion in Zero's voice, it's almost as if he's reciting a story he heard once before.

Well nevermind then. Mojo entirely took back his idea about Zero's creator. Not verbally though, as that would be rude.
"I see. I'm curious Zero, what are your goals for the future? My own is continuous discovery of the universe, and Nen's I believe is doing the best she can for the denizens of Plant."

She choked a little on her tea and put down the cup looking to the side. Realizing she spoke too soon about the morally questionable situation. She looked away to hide some of her embarrassment and wipe her mouth of anything that may have remained.
She’d let mojo keep letting them talk.

"Both of my creators designed me to define, seek out, and achieve perfection, strength, and life."
Zero states, in the exact same tone he'd spoken to Nen before when she'd asked the question.
"I have not succeeded thus far."

Mojo blinked at the mention of two creators before moving on from that. For now.
"I have two additional questions then. First, is that what you WANT to do, or what you were DESIGNED to do? Second, say you accomplish that goal. Then what?"

“Actually…” she spoke up. “The concept of perfection is entirely subjective. It can literally be if zero simply said “I’m perfect” or he could consistently go through the ages achieving the universes bounty and… maybe still see room for more therefore never achieving anything but infinity.”
She looked at Zero. “That’s a question of whether zero learns what he believes perfection means. We had a conversation like this when we met as you crash landed. Right? In the creation of the universe mortals were made by divines and the “perfection” that is being sought has never been defined as one singular thing.”

Zero nods towards Nen.
"You mentioned you believed perfection to be potential."
Before glancing back to Mojo.
"I do not have other goals. I am under the impression that as I pursue this directive, I may find other goals that arise in the meantime, such as when I attempted to join the Tuffles' military."

Mojo would nod at both of their answers, especially appreciating Nen's answer. It was valuable insight and a way of looking at the universe he honestly appreciated.
"I see. The Tufflea military? Why is that?"

“Exactly.” she would nod. “I see potential as infinite and I see it as perspective.”
She would let Zero answer Mojo’s inquiry there after

"It would provide me with military training, as well as access to Tuffle military technology."
It seemed foolproof.

Mojo nodded at that.
"This is true. I personally never considered joining a governmental military for improvement. I'm not overly fond of authority or at least authority that tries to order me specifically around. Plus I am more fond of my own company and pace in life, which the military would now allow."
Mojo would chuckle.
"Plus if I had joined a military I would be tied to one location, something I have no desire for. For one I would never learn near as much about the universe. For another I would not meet such interesting people as yourself and Guardian Nen."

“It makes sense considering where you come from.” She felt that was very logical given his perspective.

"You are a traveler, then."

Mojo would drink from his tea before answering Zero.
"Traveler, Wanderer, 'Student of the World' if you wish to be poetic. I go where I feel I may develop my strength more and learn more about whatever mysteries of the universe catch my attention. For now it has led me here to Plant, and studying alongside Guardian Nen. In the future, who knows where I shall go?"
