"Guilty as charged," Strange admits, with a wry smile. Yes, this is a little bit of showing off—he can't and won't deny it. He gets to his feet, recorks the dirt, then slips the vial back in his pocket.
Dany's question takes him a little by surprise. Strange looks a little surprised before he gives her a wide grin. The opportunity to talk and speculate about certain magic? It's his bread and butter.
"My opinion is that the vials themselves don't matter. I think we have a sympathetic connection to the liquids inside. To be blunt, it is possible to die and be resurrected again, after we have previously died. But when we're revived, some of the liquid has lowered." Case in point: himself. And he's certain Shura's vial lessened a bit, though admittedly he hasn't studied it enough.
"I think the vial itself is enchanted somehow just to keep from breaking easily and us losing the liquid that we're tied to. But no matter what, the being or group that raised us must have remarkable power."
The more Strange talks, the more obvious it is why he was a little too free with that necromancer information. He likes talking about their situation and talking about magic. Might as well get his credentials on the table as soon as possible, just so that he doesn't have to do the awkward, talking about aspects of his backstory, that he occasionally has to do with others here and certainly has to do with anyone who isn't awakened.
