Michael: Knurd, the opposite of drunk, where if you drink Klatchian Coffee (which makes you Knurd), you get massively drunk BEFORE you start drinking said coffee to deal with the sobriety it brings. ;D
Tamara: Hmm. Given that regular painkillers like Ibuprophen can cause ulcers and other issues, medicinal side effects are likely much worse than alcoholism and its side effects. Also, given that Hector's body is rejecting that it is alive at all, providing constant pain, it's most likely that only narcotic painkillers are the only medicines that work.
So... having to constantly be high on various narcotics and highly addictive painkillers would likely cause more damage in the long run than the strongest of alcoholic drinks. Or the strongest of alcoholism.
Short version: Cheers, Hector! It's better than the alternative.
...
And now I want someone to give Hector a hug, and tell him it will all be okay.
