When
Quan brought this up with
Doc, Doc asked if Quan thought the protagonist of
Native Son was a killer. Quan acknowledged that the man killed someone, but calling him a “killer” seems like the guy meant to do it. Then, Doc asked if Quan is a killer. Quan tells
Justyce he couldn’t answer. He wanted to say no, but he also wondered if it’s inevitable that he’s a killer. All this makes Quan wonder how Justyce managed to succeed. When they first met in the
rocket ship, they had a lot in common—but they turned out so different. The questions seem pointless now, but Quan keeps thinking about them.
