| "They might if they were in an atmosphere?" the Rogue Planetoid might think.. if it had thoughts.

| "How dare you imply that all my bluster goes unheard!" Were the black hole capable of speech, he'd have vociferated such outrage and swallowed them all. Again, were he capable of such things.

| The Rogue Planetoid cared nothing for the Black Hole's assertions, if he could make them and also presupposing the Planetoid could care.
Also, if it could care and feel emotions, it might feel some satisfaction that, unlike the Black Hole it could reflect light, which could shimmer off his surface upon the remnants of the civilization on his surface. Unlike the black hole, he was dressed to party.. The black hole could be considered, from a certain perspective, to be rather like the Galaxy's weird awkward stalker.

| Supposing that said awkward stalking gravitational singularity could feel emotions, he'd have become quite furious with this uppity chunk of rock. In the face of all-consuming death, a being so powerful that neither light nor time existed within its gaping maw - in the face of all that, the planetoid was naught but a speck in the wind, a speck that, just as he one day will with the universe itself, the black hole will consume.
And he'll probably taste like waffles... if the black hole could taste, of course.

| Meanwhile, across the cold, uncaring void, a great celestial cloud of gases of innumerable hues of orange, red, and white shone brilliantly—a sight to behold, were there anyone to behold it. In its solitude, the Nebula indulged in its potential not for destruction, but for creation; for in these celestial clouds of gases were the elements that made stars, planets, and ultimately, life. Tens of millions of years after the Rogue Planetoid had been engulfed in the Black Hole and the Black Hole had collapsed upon itself and ceased to be, the Nebula would have given rise to new planets and peoples.
If it could think, the Nebula would pity the nihilistic struggle of the Black Hole and the Rogue Planetoid. True, there was a finite amount of energy in the cosmos and some day it would be depleted—the so called "heat death of the universe"—but the Nebula was content in the knowledge that it will have brought life and its plethora of possibilities into being. It would be content, indeed, that somewhere a child of some species would look upon it through a telescope and find it awe-inspiring. If it could put these feelings into human terms, it might say "Dudes, chill out." And if it were capable of hunger, it would have the munchies real bad, and have a particular craving for funyuns.
Meanwhile, the Nebula would remain smug in the knowledge that would so benefit the Black Hole and the Rogue Planetoid, as the wise Jerry Garcia once sang, "I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe, but at least I'm enjoying the ride. At least I'm enjoying the ride."

| Hajo's question would echo through the expanse, one of many questions that the primitive primates of Earth, known to one another as "Humans," may ask themselves and never know the answer to (supposing there is an answer, which is so rarely the case in this vast, unknowing, uncaring cosmos).

| "Stare into the void, Hajo. Stare into the void and know just how insignificant you truly are." Were it capable of speech, the Black Hole would have said such, sadly, it is incapable of even basic thought, much less speech. Such a tragedy, that.
