[The way he gets the other half of this scenario through Gojo's eyes later and finds one of these experiences so much more unnerving than the other, even if both are horrific and terrible.]
...I see... Then I hope that her soul can be at peace.
[Just gazing at him with a thoughtful sort of expression, himself. Maybe he's depressing or maybe he's just depressed... Or maybe it's Maybelline.]
You would be in good company here. [Said a little wryly STOP ROASTING PEOPLE FOR SPORT.] ...But wouldn't you agree that even if there isn't much, there's still some?
[ Oh... Geto's weakness: small girls in need of help. The helplessness from the memory has him frowning, and the despair and confusion are familiar.
But Lucas reaches out for salvation, desperate to save his sister, whereas Geto remains hesitant, uncertain of the figure that arrives, and too tired yet to hold onto hope. ]
Did she live? [ It must've been a while ago. ] What's a Reliver?
[SMALL GIRLS IN NEED OF HELP!!!! Sometimes people are just out here keeling over left and right.
He shakes the memory off pretty easily since he's seen it so many times.]
She did, yes. [This part, said with a softness to his tone and expression. Then, a little more somber:] ...In order to circumvent the curse, one can choose to become a Reliver. Reliver technology can clone the body and transfer the personality, memories and so on of an individual, so that they may continue living.
...Perhaps. But they aren't used to coming across problems that don't relate to the curse, so I suppose the practice versus theory of it all is misaligned.
The loss of certain emotions. One can't predict which they might lose, with the exception of romantic love, which is always lost. Platonic love is often close after it.

[In Heaven, he thinks Catholically.]
no subject
I don't know if it's that easy to find peace, but I hope so.
no subject
[A little bit of a pause, and then:]
Finding peace is difficult, though. In life, it can be nearly impossible. It makes sense to assume that death may be much the same.

[ Looking thoughtful. ]
But maybe I'm just depressing.

I meant more back where I come from. But here?

But that's not how she was saved?

Her affliction was separate from the curse.
[Can you imagine that. Being cursed but also having another separate sickness.]
no subject
How did they cure her?
no subject
[Yeah!]

Medication was a part of her treatments, yes.

Why didn't you want her to become... a Reliver?
no subject
...She also doesn't wish to become one. [Just to make that clear.] We both feel the risk is much greater than the reward.
