@tamedstray: What are a few things (or one thing) you want to do before you die? Why?
𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐓 𝐀𝐋𝐋 ; that is what comes to mind first. Puck would like to dig a hole in the ground & let it swallow him up. ( Seal himself within the earth until the gods finally give up on him. )
But that isn't a very cheerful answer to the question, so Puck casts it aside. Searches instead for something more salvageable for a conversation. Something less concerning.

❝ I want . . . ❞ His eyes squeeze shut, brows knitting together in deep thought as he sucks in a breath. There must be something. Anything. Just say anything. You won't ever have it, so it doesn't matter what it is.
❝ Kids, ❞ he says impulsively, a confession that causes his face to flush & his eyes to dart down to the ground. One of his pointed ears flutters nervously. Talk about things he couldn't ever have, huh ？
But it's the truth. At the end of the day, all he wants is life.
❝ I'd- I'd like to have kids. A lot of them, I think. A family . . . & I want animals. Lots of those, too. A- A whole ranch. Maybe a garden. I don't know. Something that grows. ❞
