"Yeah. That's how it was soundin'. But I gotta ask-"
He puts his hand on her shoulder and looks her intently. "I know time works in all kinds of ways in all kinds of worlds. Sometimes playin' with it is stable, sometimes it breaks ever'thin'. Anan... I know the point here is to stop a paradox that didn't work in the long run.
"But what's it gonna do to those of us that're dead. They said that yet?"
Yondu's never actually cared about the greater good. Never. The greater good never saved him, it enslaved him. A man of grander intentions saved him. The people he loves, he'd fight for. He'd protect any one of them that went out there, made sure their tethers stayed bound.
But he can't kill Kyoko. He can't kill Soldat. And as much as he kicks the shit out of himself and would die for those he cared about? Killing himself, not a thing he wants to do.
