Death isn't ever the preferred option...

You talk like you know!

[live_growstronger]

Do I? Yes, I suppose I do know a thing or two.

Death is very... final. I don't think people really appreciate that fact until they're faced with it. And maybe not even then.

Guess we all know a sod or two who bit it.

At this point, death is death-- shit, it's been inevitable from day-fucking-one. Now it's just more... devoted. Kinda admirable, if you think about it.

I've known one or two. [Or... most everyone he'd ever met. And that was before this whole insanity of walking corpses. He'd lived a very long time after all.]

I could certainly do with a bit less devotion. Makes it hard to give attention to much else.

You're one cool cucumber!

[ Laughing his fill, he drops back against the back of his seat and stretches out his legs, openly entertained. ]

See, that! That sounds like a personal problem, guy.

[Methos wasn't quite sure what to make of this man quite yet. He found him unsettling, that much he knew.]

What problems aren't personal? [Methos asked, smiling back his joviality far less boisterous as his current companions.]

[eenymeenyminymoe]

Those that only affect a cool cucumber. [ A royal wave toward. ] Like yourself.

People die. It's a thing. God's little shit-stirrer.

Everyone dies. I'm not denying that. [Although he was trying to avoid it for himself for as long as possible. Being immortal certainly helped in that goal. But it wasn't assured.] But sometimes it happens far too soon and for no good reason. [But even a couple hundred years. A thousand. It wasn't long enough.]
