At first the doctor merely hummed, offering passive agreement in the midst of rearranging one of the pharmacy's shelves to hold new stock. But after a few beats of silence, his response flowed buoyant and playful, "I don't think I've ever heard that much optimism from you before. I'm a little impressed—unless, of course, that was meant as a less-than-subtle jab at me."

Most rational, Celestia-fearing people of Teyvat would call the search for immortality as 'unrealistic' as one could get. But such people were closed-minded; confined within the known and narrow by a frankly concerning amount of complacency.

While he'd never known Kaz to harbor any fondness for the norms of the world (societal, legal...take your pick), Baizhu did wonder if he thought his personal quest was far-fetched to the point of foolishness. He wouldn't take offense, even if so. Someday he'd have to ask.

"Regardless, surely you must realize a statement like that begs an obvious question." Here Baizhu paused in his work to toss a curious glance over his shoulder. "Does 'everyone' include you, as well?"
