[ Why he's against murder? Well that's an easy one he wouldn't have problems answering. Why he's still helping June out despite his reservations against killing? Loyalty, etc, etc... It wouldn't be that hard to give a satisfactory and honest answer to that one either.
But to delve deeper into his own sordid past? That's another matter. He would close up a bit there. He's made a decent life for himself on Earth, and until he's discovered and forced to take flight again he'd rather give himself a second chance.
Second chances mean not talking about the personal aspects of his past. ]
Any time.
[ And to try to lighten the mood, as much as the mood can be lightened when a very serious crime has just been committed, Chr'tt adds in-- ]
As long as the risk of being caught by the cops is less than fifty percent for me, at least.
Thank goodness math's on my side, [ june deadpans, but the effect is dampened by the smile that he makes not long after he makes the aside.
he's glad math is on his side, truly he is. it means he has someone like luuk to turn to if the numbers come out in his favor, and june is glad for it. he's all too used with having the odds stacked against him; time has proven as much to him, from the luck of his birth to his arrival to this point in his life.
june has never put much stock in luck, but he's not going to turn it away when it decides it's his turn on the wheel. ]
[ Luuk isn't really one to believe in luck, and even odds and probabilities are a bit different. Maybe it's more correct to say he doesn't believe in things like fate, good or bad luck, even if he does believe in chance.
Life is really what you make it, and in this case he's made it prioritizing the people around him for once in his shady little life.
He smiles at the comment, but the fleeting thought "I hope you can continue to be" does pass through his head, even if he doesn't voice it out loud.
Some things are better kept inside as you drive your friend away from his self-inflicted disasters. ]

SOUNDS GOOD
