--and then everything goes to shit. Again. Despite knowing that something like this was bound to be coming, seeing Kuja--Kuja, of all people--be targeted for the Empress's bullshit mind control move was infuriating.

Screw it.
Saving the world could wait.
They were going to save their friend first. Time for some good, old-fashioned ACTing.
With their [Soft Prescience] and frankly quite ludicrous speed, Frisk flashsteps out of the way of both of Kuja's spells and onto the head of silver dragon.
He probably wouldn't appreciate cliches, so... got it. Frisk opens with a quote from the book they'd given Kuja such a long time ago. "'What are the affairs of mortal men compared to gods?'" they yell over the clangor of battle, activating [Transience] "'What indeed, except more valorous, more glorious? For we, mere ants on this physical plane, accomplish great feats of heroism without immortality or eternal youth to cradle us. Some say that our deeds are limited by our mere mortal lives, but I must argue the negative. It is because we are mere mortals that our lives have meaning! Our spark will eventually die out, yes, but the pages it burns into history will be ever more meaningful because of it! And so is kindness and goodness too valued, because we are limited, because our sacrifices and our empathy mean something!'"

But if you did live forever, what would be the point? You can moan and grumble about not needing friends all you'd like, but the kindness me, Snow, everyone has shown you... you can't deny that it's made you better. It's helped you recover. And no matter what, you can't abandon that.'"
