He doesn't chase the change in subject. It seemed only fair, Scott had bared...quite a bit, If he was as similar to Chris as they both had commented on, then he had every right to retreat and smooth that over again.

"Ah...sharp of you. Yes, I've died before. Electrocuted to death by a massive iron golem that had me strapped down to it. Weren't more than a few minutes, but it was...enough." Enough for him to know resurrection was exactly as unpleasant and worth questioning as he'd initially thought.

"My best friend and bodyguard, Amnos, had a ring I specifically gave him that held a single resurrection spell in it. It was meant for the others in case he could get to them before me or something similar, but...not so bad a thing to have when the man who can bring others back to life can't do it for himself."

And that's why, along with snark and banter and pushing, Scott talks to Chris. He doesn't already know things, he doesn't have expectations, he won't demand 'emotional output', and he'll let Scott back away.

He's coming to really like the guy, and that's a strange kind of relief.

He'll probably blow things up at some point, but for now- it's nice.

"So which was the harder part - being dead, coming back, or dealing with everyone else's reaction to it?" He doesn't 'soften' a lot in a typical way, but there's no edge there, and it's not a demand. It's just a question, with an undercurrent of concern, running along side the curiosity about Chris.
