["For better or for worse," a moment is frozen in time and preserved . . . is it?]

What tales do you oft weave?

[beatmatching]

Whatever my audience wants. The most popular tales are those of love.

[poans]

Love, you say . . . Whence do you draw your inspiration?

[beatmatching]

From my experiences, of course. The love my father gives me, the adoration of my fans, the time I spent in the Garden with my fellow humans.

[poans]

The Garden in which you and your fellows were nurtured by these aliens, the different races of Segyein. Like a flower, you bloomed under their watchful gaze, a vessel of beauty grown on their hopes . . .

[A thematic match with Yingying in all the sentimental ways, yet still not. What lack did the algorithm spy?]

[beatmatching]

How poetic.

Did you vote for us?

[poans]

[And yet . . . ]

That is correct.

[beatmatching]

[ there's a certain manner of pride luka takes in that, even if the result was incorrect; luka smiles. ]

Thank you for your support.

Are you happy that we're still here?

[poans]

I am indifferent.

Rather, I believe a question of that nature is more suited for you and Miss Yingying. Are you satisfied with the result, Luka?

[beatmatching]

[ ouch! you'll hurt his non-existent feelings. ]

Yes. It's more time to spend with all of you, isn't it?

[poans]

Indeed, remaining within the estate as a player would ensure that our eyes, and those of the audience, continue to follow you.

[But he wonders, if silently, when Luka's motions have thus far been fueled by what others have put into him.]

[beatmatching]

Exactly.

It would be a shame to leave the stage too early. [ in the regard, him and yingying are perfect matches. ]
