[UNFORTUNATELY HE WILL TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY to gush about one of his two favorite things in the world.......]
Ah, what's not to like? It's the very essence of being, vibrant and dazzling in color and warm to the touch. Living creatures must have it to survive, and without it, life itself would cease. All the same, it's strongly symbolic of death - and in that way, it represents the full circle of any given creature's time in the world beautifully, from beginning to end.
...I can see that, yeah. At first, I hated death. It hurts to lose people and know you won't see them again. But now, I think there's something kind of beautiful about it. No one's story goes on forever, which means they have to make it count.
And that's why we had to stop that pig from turning the concept of death into soup.

It's a good thing that you were there to stop the pig. Death is an important part of life.
