[IT'D BE SCI-FI THEORY TO ANYONE it's even sci-fi theory to him and he lives it.]
It's not impossible... [A very light frown as he considers.] It would certainly be better for everyone if technology like this weren't considered a necessity.
Anyone can afford it with planning. [It's expensive, but even Coene residents become Relivers.] Though whether one chooses to invest is a personal matter.
[ yeah but he doesn't have plans to live forever ]
... Like installment plans? [ So funny. ] It's wild to consider extending your life like that, but Tengen kind of does the same thing with his cursed technique.
For normal people, when your time comes, it comes.
[ the idea that gojo might do it just to see reformation of jujutsu society would be funny but we know how jjk ended up ]
When I was asking about body copies, it's because sorcerers are born with innate abilities! Tengen is a suuuuuper old sorcerer, ancient, and his technique is basically immortality.
More magic...? [MORE WIZARDS????? SORCERERS??? WARLOCKS??? WHAT THE HELL IS ALL OF THIS.] But it's innate to you? How strange to think of... It sounds similar to Gale.
Ah... [A nod... Gale explains things so wordily so he at least has a decent concept of Genetics Magic.]
Inherent abilities built into the genetics... No, we don't have anything like that, but it's a fascinating concept. It seems even among homes with similar abilities, those abilities manifest and exist in vastly different ways, at times.
[ thinking to himself maybe he could be a teacher....................... ]
That's right. There are lineages and bloodlines, then outliers born from non-sorcerer pairs. [ Nod nod. ] I'm surprised that the word "magic" seems to be kind of universal. It's broad, but it fits a lot of stuff for the most part.
But it's typically contained within a certain family line, then, correct? If it's passed down through blood. [WILD. He nods at that, though.]
There are quite a few terms like that. "Technology", "supernatural", even "curses"... Though the definitions can differ, the fact that the same words exist to describe roughly the same category of thing is interesting.
Oh... No. [IT SEEMS for a second like he might leave it there, but considering by this point half the damn game knows:] Our home is cursed, along with those born there. Our lifespans are substantially shorter than that of a "normal" person, which is what necessitates Reliver technology.
[Gojo larping like someone who is normal. He just looks faintly thoughtful though, before nodding.]
It's something that an average person can see as a potential problem from the start. [Immortality bad!] ...In any case, I should hope that more can come to cherish their lives without being placed into horrible situations where they're under threat first.

It is because we aren't like "normal people". [Though he's also just like THE WHO WITH THE WHAT.] What do you mean by cursed technique?
