The rest of you are alive. If I were in your shoes, I would focus on staying alive.
Well - I'm kind of in the in-between. [as someone who died before he arrived, but he's living here.] I guess I was just thinking about it as... well, a back-up plan. Like if something were to happen to me, could someone get me back?
That sort of thing. [a beat] I wouldn't want to make anyone sacrifice their wish for me, though. But... I do like living.
What did or do you love most about her? [he's not going to assume that just because someone's gone the love goes away] How did you meet? How'd you pop the question?
I jumped off a tower after getting stabbed and managed to make it to a town. She knew I'd be there, somehow. She hid me from the militia force in town.
[oh.... he looks a little embarrassed at that before recovering a little]
I guess the academy put me through.... but you're not the first person to tell me I don't really come off like an officer. I'm not sure if that's a compliment or not.

I don't know. [which they clearly hate admitting.] I don't know how it'll work. It's hypothetically possible.

... that's all I wanted to know. Thanks, Pride-san. If you get a better idea later, I'll ask again?
But uh - you know a lot about me know! So can I ask about you and your beloved...?
[embarrassing]
no subject
... What do you want to know. [they want to be tsun about this but they can't resist talking about whoever it is.]

I - hmph. [shift.] ... She's kind. Patient, when it matters. [aka she didn't put up with pride's bullshit.]
She saved me from dying. That's how I met her.
