[ ryouma is happy to keep pouring because he figures sannan needs it after telling his story outright like that. ]

Weird thing t' consider dyin' bein' a fixed point in time. No matter the timeline, it happens. I mean, in everybody's life of course dyin' is a fixed point. But I mean more than that. In fact, there's a couple'a guys here whose job it is t' make sure it happens no matter what, so I'm sure that guy lived exactly as long as he needed to.

[ that guy meaning his counterpart in sannan's world. but speaking of lifespans... ]

That "cure" business still a problem around here too? The Alliance has quite a few talented people both on the medical and supernatural side of things, if so.

[ if it were possible to help him, they could have a mutually beneficial arrangement here... ]
