Mhmm, it's like any other tool-- [Wait a second. There is a grave misconception here that needs to be cleared up for the sake of-- well, nothing really, but it's probably important to be honest about this shit.
Avdol leans in, expression serious, and raises his eyebrows.] Oh, Leone. That...That was different; I don't normally have octopus parts, for one, and I'm normally much more of a wreck. You haven't seen anything yet, I'm afraid. But at least you're prepared for the worst part of it, I suppose. Now if I call you up because I want you so badly that I'm openly weeping, you won't get such a shock to the system!
[Now that that's out of the way, he settles back on the couch and smiles a little, though it's...More wry than anything.] ...That's what I mean, though. Even if I live, the you I'd meet wouldn't be you anyway, and I'd be old. No matter what Polnareff does, we'll never have this chance again. Still, if you could go back and stay alive like this, then I think I'd be alright with missing out on being with you. I think knowing that you got your second chance at home too would...Be worth everything I could give up.
Actually, no. I know that would be worth it. I've always thought that, since I found out about the death thing. Think of the fortune you could make, using Moody Blues to make roses for little grandmothers around the world?
