-nods- Take your time.
-to not-Faust- It's fine. It's not you. It's the fact that you remind me of Faust. -scowls-
...And I guess I don't even particularly dislike him. It's more of an association thing. People who die are supposed to stay dead.
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon Alchemist...It's fine.
...
You do realise that whatever will happen to you now to reclaim you will be even worse? I had a friend, Zack... I spent a bit of extra time with him... just a few hours, but it was...
...it wasn't worth what happened. I would trade those hours back in an instant if I could.
This will be the last time I say this, because I know you don't want to hear it, but please; move on peacefully while you can. You've been given an opportunity. Not everyone gets to pass that quietly. Your time has been had. It's not your father's place to decide who lives and who dies, no matter how much he loves you. He has to learn to live for your sake... otherwise, in a way, you're just taking his life from him instead. You have to let go.
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistIt's not like that at all. Your body is taken by your planet to make new life... so is your... "soul", I guess you could call it. And there's peace...
Death isn't to be feared. And no, you won't be around to make your old man happy anymore. But that's not the way things work. Your time was spent. You won't be around forever. Your father needs to realise that, or he's just a time bomb with no timer... there's no telling what he'll do, or when he'll blow, but when he does, it won't be pretty.
And if he feels he needs to kill himself over it, then he never deserved life in the first place. That much is true.
You'll be gone soon, anyway. Please at least think about it. That's all I ask.

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistThat's not how it works, Faust. That's like denying gravity, or air. You're really just part of a much greater process. I'm telling you this because considering how long you've been around so far, your clock is nearly done ticking, if the previous instances are anything to go by. Please, you have to calm down and accept things while you still can. If he's not suicidal, then he can live without you. It'll be hard, but he has to accept death as well. Because when it's his turn, it'll be even worse for him. And it isn't his place — or yours — to decide who lives and dies. You've met that person. He tried being reasonable with you, and as far as I know, he's still open for the peaceful route.
...You know, I'm starting to wonder what kind of crackpot propoganda they're teaching in the schools in your world where none of the kids there have a proper concept of death. {Next thing you know, I'll see one of these kids trying to wake up a corpse....}
MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistI wonder what you'll be like on your deathbed. Perhaps you'll scream and cry and bargain. I wouldn't doubt it.
Nothing good will come of this. Do you have any idea what you — who the hell said you got to bring people back to life? Why not just bring everyone back?! You obviously can! Or wait — resources would be too expensive. Let's bring people back if their families can afford it!
...I know what it feels like. But that's not the way things work. And what's worse, you've skewed his perspective, too, and now things will be even worse this time.

Oh, hey. People are still here.
-comes back-
...The hell?
