[Eleanor swings from ready to snark back to wincing empathy. Michael's probably never had to consider that, given how rare the whole "Retirement" thing is and how it isn't technically dying, if she understands it right. So she hesitates, choosing her words.]

You aren't the only demon-ish thing here. And everyone seems pretty serious about the "don't die too many times" thing, which, uh, is sort of weird given how it's usually "don't die ever" but. Don't you think we would've heard if there's some people who don't have to worry about it? Especially with the events that change people into different things and take powers away, I mean...
