[If you are not alive, you are dead? This is not rocket science??? Also the Blades are great at GingTFO when they aren't getting blown up, if this were a real discussion and not introspective snark Kolivan would not understand why Hunk is making things complicated by adding extra options onto getting dead or not.

Anyway, Kolivan reacts to the accusation that he is incapable of happy thoughts by continuing to frown.]
