If you and your soulmate were the last pair standing, and there could only be one, what would you do?
---
Um, I don't know. I've always been the first out, so I've never really thought that far. Jimmy remarks. But, I'd probably let Tango win. He deserves it for being such a kind and caring soulmate.
Awwe, Tango smiles, I'd let you win. You deserve it for everything you've gone through.
Awwe, Jimmy grins, Maybe we could both win.
Yeah. Maybe we could both tower up and jump off at the same time.
Yeah.

We would die together. Ren declares. We would stay loyal to each other until the ends of the Earth.
Big B nods. Yeah. Though I wouldn't mind letting you win.
Awe Big B, Ren says. I wouldn't let you. We either die together or we don't die at all.
Big B smiles softly. Thanks Ren. After slight hesitation, he adds, for everything. Ren takes Big B's hand and squeezes it.

Um, Grian says, Cactus ring two, electric boogaloo? I honestly haven't thought that far. I know I seem like I know what I'm doing, but I don't. Anyway, I don't know. I'm not really interested in reliving the pain of the cactus ring again, but it kind of seems like our only option. Scar?
Wha- Oh right! the question. Right. Scar chuckles nervously. Um, I also don't know, though I don't think it matters since G will always end up winning. But I don't really care if I win or not, as long as I die near the my true soulmates, the Jellie pandas.
Grian sighs and rolls his eyes affectionately. Of course you would bring the Jellie pandas into this.

Probably fight, Etho says, even though I'll lose.
What makes you say that? Joel asks, surprise lacing his voice.
Well, there's a reason why Cleo thinks that you're a bigger threat than I am. You also ended my series in Last Life. Etho points out. He can already see Joel's ego start to swell.
Oh yeah. I did do that. Joel replies, smug.
Hey, don't get too confident now. I can still beat you if I tried. Etho quips.
Oh Yeah? You wanna try and test that now, Etho? Huh? Do you want to see who will win? C'mon, fight me! We'll see who wins.
Etho sighs. Joel. We're in the afterlife. We can't kill each other if we're already dead.
Right. Forgot about that part.

Impulse looks long and hard at the golden apple in his inventory, and then at the sleeping Bdubs leaning on his shoulder. I don't know. It depends on whether or not Bdubs would have betrayed me. Or maybe I would have done it anyway, as revenge for when he betrayed me in Third Life.
---
I would've killed him. Cleo says instantly.
Wow Cleo, do you hate me that much? You didn't even hesitate! Martyn complains.
Yeah, I do.
Then why did you team with me at the end? Martyn questions. Why didn't you go with Scott, your chosen soulmate?
Well, Cleo replies, I didn't have much of a choice, did I? I held onto Scott until I couldn't hold on anymore, and that's all I could do. The soul link doesn't exactly make this easy. Quite the opposite, actually.
Martyn sighs. Yeah, true.
---
Well, Scott glances at Pearl. We already know how this ends.
Pearl laughs. Yeah, I guess we do. I still can't believe you did that, though.
Me neither. Scott smiles. I don't regret it though.
Thanks Scott, maybe you aren't so bad after all.
Yeah. Tilly death do us part.
Tilly death do us part.
