[Shiro doesn’t think it silly. It’s simply how the other man views his world. He’s encountered planets before whose occupants didn’t consider anything remotely beyond their sky. The concept of “planet” wasn’t in their vocabulary. But considering what he just told Sabo, Shiro’s pretty sure the revolutionary will say something when he gets back home. If they remember all of this.
The Paladin frowns a little at the answer, but there’s no denying the slight relief in his eyes. While he’s gone without drink a long time before, the threat of this drug is… well… He takes a smaller drink, but a drink nonetheless. Maybe gradual introduction will give his system time to regulate it or flush the drug out. Maybe it’s stupid of him to just up and drink after learning such a truth. But if this is the worst drug they’ll put in him, he can always retreat to his place and just… deal with it alone.
It wouldn’t be the first time.]
I’ll be careful. I know it’s not optimal, but living in fear of everything we eat and drink seems like… a really pathetic way to live.
