There's a difference between not giving a fuck and living in the moment.

[He shrugs, baby steps.]

It's been making you human my dude. In my line of work, I come across a bunch of living weapons. I've got a whole armory of 'em. But here's the thing, being a weapon kinda sucks ass. Just ask my old man.

[He jerks a thumb at the massive fleshy blade hanging on the wall behind him.]

And yeah, being human sucks at times too, but it's worth it. We can't appreciate the good without contrasting it to the bad. I wouldn't be able to enjoy just taking a nap with a good song in the background if I didn't know what it was like to live on the street, scrounging for food and wondering if today was the day the demons would find and kill me.

That's the thing about humans though. Live deals 'em a bad hand all the goddamn time, and yet, they place full houses in spite of it.

[Dante is unsure if his pep talk is going to do any good, but it's worth a shot at least.]

Oni sake, straight from Old Hell. Strong enough to kill a normal person, but for us at least we can get buzzed.

[Dante mirrors the toast before downing his sake.]
