"Don't kill me right away. Some EVOs manage to keep their minds despite their forms. After the initial change, see if I have any sort of rationality left. With how people are resurrected on this ship, there's no guarantee I would stay dead or that I'd be cured when I returned to life."

Being caught in a death loop just because he might have his mind but be unable to articulate it properly would not be fun.
