[ Want is a strong word. There's nothing but emptiness inside Angelo and around him. His brilliant guiding light has disappeared.
Live is a strong word as well. Angelo fails to imagine a version of it that doesn't make him recoil in disgust. To join in with a world he'd much rather see burned to the ground, to live in hedonistic pleasure, meaninglessly... Just imagining it makes him want to shed his skin. A more modest life is easier thought of, but continues to feel hollow.
So what else? What next? ]
I am going to survive - I'm certainly not going to lose my life in this desolate place.
[ Not wanting to get literally cannibalized helps motivate him for that, also. ]
As for living... You said I should get to invent an opportunity for that. For now, I'm making you my opportunity.
