Kenny takes a deep breath, Butters also calming down slightly as Kenny's hands now slide off Butters' shoulders, making him less flustered now.
"You see, Buttercup.. I-I can't die.." Kenny explains slowly.
Butters smile when he hears Kenny call him 'Buttercup, he likes that. But he quickly realises what Kenny says and Butters' face grows to confusion and shock, but trying to keep calm. "You.. can't die? Wha- how?"
Kenny continues "I mean, I can die, but.. I never stay dead.." He breaks eye contact with Butters, looking down at the ground, then adding "I don't even know why.. It just happens.. I hate it. It hurts so much..."
Butters tries to follow along with Kenny's explanation, now more shocked than confused. "Can't die..? How strange.. A-and nobody ever remembers..?" He asks curiously.
"Oh, Kenny! That must feel so bad! Dying all the time, being in so much pain just to be fine later..!" Butters adds, feeling sorry for Kenny.
"Yes.." Kenny replies. "I don't know why you only remembered.." He looks back up into Butters' eyes, his face full of concern.
Kenny shakes his head and says "Hey, let's just forget about this, alright..?" His face softens "Okay?" He places his hand onto Butters' shoulder again.
Butters calms down, smiles faintly and nods in return "Alright, Ken.." He then looks around his room and says "Hey, stay for a while. Let's hang out."
"Sounds good." Kenny replies with a little nod and faint smile "Thanks."
