Probably tied to his bank account. If 100 coins nets you a 1UP, then maybe he loses a buck every time he dies. And Ethan’s the kind of dude who’s reasonably smart, but struggles with basic adulting, so no way he’s ever actually closely examined his monthly statement and wondered where these little $1 charges are coming from.
He’ll be fine, unless he accidently gets overdrawn.
Given the situation, those questions are not unreasonable.

And THAT, Ethan, is what we call the One Question Too Far

So, how soon before Scott has to help? Would probably take a little bit (OK, a lot) of convincing first though.

I have to imagine that in a world with super villains and eldritch horrors, this glass maker has to assume “ok, this fella is building a murder bot. No thanks.”

come on ethan, they have no context. you cant just throw that out at a random person, even YOU should know better than that BY NOW.
But Ethan is stranger than any other stranger and sometime stranger than himself.

“Hi, I had a custom model made with a glass lens. I can’t get hold of the original maker. I broke the lens, I can send you a picture. Is this something you can do?”… or you know whatever Ethan is doing will probably work. My idea is more boring.

So close to solving it quickly, then he had to go the murder question route.
Just my thought
Ya, tho im concerned the master will figure out Zeke isnt dead due to this kinda stuff. Im assuming he thinks he is dead but dono?
Less is more, Ethan.
I… sometimes I think Ethan is smart, then he dives headfirst into the fields of dumb.
Then again, infinite rez means you don’t actually have to worry about consequences killing you, so…
well, the problem is that he can’t be sure the rez is infinite… the next one may be the last one, you never know…
Which is why he probably eats a healthy diet of quarters just to be sure lol

This seems to be the most Ethan way his power works.
Remember, Einstein sometimes forgot to wear pants……….
On the other hand, that’s also true for me.

He needs better life insurance………..
Why? He could never collect.
Or could he collect everytime he dies? Though I suspect that in a world of supervillians and superheroes, that particular loophole is probably closed…
Ooooh, what if there was a villain with powers like Ethan’s?
He’d be known as Player Two. The eternal Nemesis.
Constantly forced to play Luigi, the rage grew, till he could no more.
Let’s be real, Ethan shouldn’t be allowed to talk to strangers.
When you’re that strange, everyone is a stranger.
But Ethan is stranger than any other stranger and sometime stranger than himself.
