I mean, isn't motivating people a good thing? With the sort of things that happen in this place, I often worry about other people. It would be so easy to fall into despair when there is often so little hope. When people have to miss those important to them, when they are put through various things that make them hurt. If I could help prevent them from feeling that way, then that would be a good thing..
[ J-Just don't call it manipulation! Please, BB! ]
That's a rough question. Not because Inigo doesn't know the answer - oh, he sure does - but more because he isn't sure he wants to share it. He doesn't want to make her worry about him, or start to view him in some strange way..
(Never mind the fact that BB is already viewing him in plenty of strange ways, mind you.) ]
I don't know. I just feel like there are many more people in this place whose good deeds for other people are much more apparent than mine, you know? I have to stay humble!
[ Yeah, right, Inigo. Sure. That's tooootally it. ]
[ BB already worries about him for unrelated reasons that he himself thinks he is trying to avoid. ]
What relevance does comparing others' achievements have to your own? It is not an evaluation but rather an affirmation of the question you posed. Which had been: Do I really do that much good for other people? The answer is undoubtedly yes, as you consistently extend goodwill unto others, unprompted at that.
While worth is gauged by your own understanding, as an AI who can see beyond the individual, BB can assure you that all contributions hold significance. Even the smallest stone adds strength to the wall.
Whether you see yourself as the stone or the wall, it doesn't matter.
Yet, if humility is your aim, then, simply let it be unspoken. No matter the grandeur of anyone's humble actions, true humility matters not if you see yourself as the stone or the wall; you act as you do because it is human nature to do so.
[ And that is what is brilliant about humanity. Actions that make no sense and are illogical; actively choosing to take on those tasks unrequested and continuing to do so, purely to help others. It defies logic, and that is precisely why BB both loathes and loves humanity. Because at its core, humans apply the same fervor to acts of kindness, as they do to enacting harm toward each other.]
Anyway you should go to sleep lolol
[ It makes no sense, it never does. And yet, all the same, she loves them profusely anyway. ]
Alright, you are aware you can't just hop from one thing to another like that, right?
[ Though it's not like Inigo really minds. Usually it confuses him, and maybe it does here too, just a touch.. But considering the topic, he kind of likes that she's veering away from it.
If not just because it's way too hard for Inigo to ever accept a compliment, and this was heading awfully close in that direction. ]
But I will go sleep.
You just make sure you rest too, alright? Thank you for looking for Webby for me. It really means a lot to me.
