"I can imagine," Luz said. "Well no, I don't, I've seen some of Lance's memories. He was pretty lone wolf back then. Now..."
Luz shrugged. It was hard to say that having Reaper around was like having a real cool parent, but was still wrestling with those feelings. Part of her would ultimately always be glad that he was there though.
She missed the little, strange family they all had back then.
"Exactly. Besides, when it comes down to it, the person you really have to justify your actions is you. If you couldn't motivate your own self to care about your progress, you would have stopped trying to improve yourself a long time ago."
And that was why Luz knew that Darth Maul had never been a lost cause: people just underestimated how long he'd been taught to suppress any empathy. Making the effort meant it was never a lost battle.
"That just isn't true! There are people in my world, politicians, who will claim to want to help people but their actions maintain a status quo where only a few people can ever benefit from the current system for everyone."
