A Life to Be Envied
There is one thing that surprises me whenever I think of Grimmer and Lunge. Both share the same problem of a lack of humanity (especially emotion). However, the way in which these two people are free from problems is completely opposite.
To put it simply, Grimmer should be remembered, but Lunge should be forgotten. I believe that true growth for Lunge starts with stopping the compulsive hoarding of data.
If Grimmer had survived, he would have sincerely told Lunge that he didn't have to remember so obsessively and desperately. And that would have been the first piece of advice that Lunge heard about his own way of remembering.
Grimmer would have been genuinely concerned about him and perhaps stopped his typing-obsessed fingers.
(We already know that Gillen pointed out Lunge's memory method. However, this is close to a strategic attack on Lunge's blind spots.)

I just finished watching the anime Pluto, and here's my personal rating: quite disappointing - 6.8/10.

Assuming Grimmer/Runge as basis
I think Runge is likely to live quite a long life. Even in his late 70s to early 80s, he'll probably remain in good health without any major issues. He won't have much of a hunched back, so he'll likely be quite tall for an old man.
He'll always stick to the same route for his walks, unless the weather is really bad. Barring heavy rain or snow, he'll probably take his walks very punctually.
He'll sit on a bench and quietly observe the surroundings for hours. While he won't be typing with his fingers anymore, he'll still observe everything closely, taking it all in.
Due to Grimmer's influence, he might have a heightened interest in children. He'll always carry candies in his pocket, and if he spots a child with a dark expression nearby, he'll quietly observe them and then approach, offering a candy with his reassuring words, "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."
There might be times when kids come to play at Runge's house. He'll always be quietly reading a book, and his first words when the kids enter will always be the same: "Wash your hands first."
Despite his nonchalant appearance, he'll remember all the children's names and know about their daily lives. If they encounter any problems, he might quietly resolve them without anyone noticing.
On his desk, there'll always be one frame lying face down. When he's about to go out, he'll lightly touch the frame and say, "I'll be back."
Sometimes, when he feels lonely, he'll pick up the frame and gaze at the picture inside.
He's not someone who laughs often, but the image that kids remember is of his face with a faint smile.
Though he might seem reclusive at first glance, he's certainly not a complete loner or a bystander. Expressing himself through actions is just more natural for him than words.
Thanks to Grimmer's encouragement, he'll likely continue to write consistently. His first piece might have been very straightforward, almost like a report listing facts, but over time, he'd likely incorporate more metaphors. Nevertheless, his emotions will still be restrained, and his unique observational perspective will remain intact.
He's somewhat numb to pain, so he might not even realize when he's pushing himself too hard.
He might be secretly handling a significant case without others knowing. It's probably not at someone else's request, but more likely part of his secretive plan or purpose. The truth of the matter might only come to light after his death.
He'll probably mutter to himself like this often. "Wolfgang, this should do, right?"
