Forte shared Teisel's sentiment. Sure, the patients all couldn't be the one to finish off Landel, but he would've liked a good swing at him. And it wasn't even a patient, apparently, but those zombies - mindless and probably didn't even enjoy it. But he still let Teisel's concern fly right over his head (the pirate being less persuasive than Sheena).

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be back on my feet again - and if I could live through that, I can live through anything." He looked down at his slung arm, and added, "but I do need something to block with besides my- this arm. It's definitely not as durable as my real one." Saying it out loud, he realized he'd started to think of this as his own body, but he needed to remember it wasn't - he was just stuck in it until he found a way to fix himself - all the more reason he shouldn't worry about it being damaged if he could keep going.
