Human skin is a funny thing. Even though you cut it, peel it, or burn it to a crisp, it will still regenerate under that charred black surface.

Just like a tree sheds it's leaves, the burnt skin will eventually fall off, revealing the fresh, new, skin underneath.

The human body really is an impeccable piece of art.

Always a scar, though.

Nature's little reminder not to throw that can of WD-40 into the bonfire.

No, not really. If you rip something enough, it never comes back.

True, though I don't believe we were discussing the dead.

I've always found it interesting just how many times a person can be shot and still keep trying to get up.

Tell me, what are the common methods of healing in this world? It doesn't seem to have Materia, but I'd imagine that's because the Lifestream - or whatever this planet has - functions differently.

If they don't hit a major organ or blood vessel, gunshots are quite survivable.

Just the conventional stuff, I'm afraid. You know, bandages and pills.

I should have aimed a little higher with Big Brother... but that wouldn't have been fair to Loz.

And is it safe to assume that there is also no way to get a Phoenix Down here?

Of course.

Never heard of it.
