It matters not how many times he saves the world, the universe, or even one individual life, he can never live up to his people's expectations. Because his people just don't do that sort of thing. They watch, from the shadows and sidelines of the universe, keeping detailed records of the various rises and falls, but they never intervene. That wouldn't be proper.
He used to watch with them, fascinated by the world outside, but it was never enough.
He no longer cares what's proper.
He'd be the black sheep of his family, if his kind had families. Or sheep.
