9S flinches from the vehemence in Rita's voice. "No! Of course not!"
He'd never expect Rita to... to end her life if he was destroyed. But unlike him, she has a finite lifespan. She'll eventually die, whether she wants to or not.
"I don't know if I want to be someone who lives forever. I'd have to watch everyone I care about reach the end of their lives. I don't... I don't know if I could go through that, over and over again."
Both him and 2B haven't been in production for very long, but he's read how killing him over and over took a toll on her. Sure, 2B having to actively kill all the 9Ses is different from someone naturally passing away -- a best case scenario, for the world is always full of turmoil, isn't it? -- but... would she be just as sad if she had to continue living while those she loved were taken from her by the march of time?
