"Thank you!" She replied.
Out of the air, a the molecules stsrted to change and form a fork and bottle of chocolate syrup.

Bedlam chuckled and winked. "Trust me, I'm even harder to kill permanently. I kind of draw power from conflict, so dying during a fight is very unlikely. I mean, if I get stabbed a few too many times it may take a few weeks for me to reappear, but I won't stay dead." He smiled up at her. "You have my word, Sarah. I'm not going anywhere."
-
"No wonder my dad married a refugee," she muttered.
-
"What does that mean?"
-
"You see, my mom wasn't a guardian. She was a refugee of the Collapse. At least they both acknowledged that she was gonna die and that she only had one life."
-
"If you think that's better I could always take away my own immortality. I wouldn't mind only having one life if that's what you prefer."
-
"Actually, don't do that. It's just that, when you're told something enough times and exact opposite happens. It gets... well... infuriating. First guy I dated-- James-- told me that fifty times. After the Replication Chamber incident, well, we argued, and literally fought. People got stabbed. So we ended the relationship. I mean, he turned into real f**king a**hole. He recently perma-died. And he [i]still[/i] bothers me, in spirit form. So glad someone called Ghostbusters on him. Finn, told me he wouldn't die a million times. Next thing I know, perma-dead."

"You could always kill me to see....No wait, don't do that. One. Wouldn't prove much. And two...well, just don't." He sighed. "Maybe I should just say even if I somehow die some day I'll make the time you spend with me worth it. I'll make you as happy as I possibly can."
-
"Listen. I'm still trying to recover a bit, here. As you said, a lot of s**t happened rapidly. And I need to find some closure."
-
"Sorry, just trying to be a friend. I'm not too great in these situations." He backed off a little.
-
"Okay.."
-
"Umm...I can leave you alone here if you want or if you need a shoulder to cry on I can stay, depends on what you want, Sarah."
-
"Yeah.. leave me alone," she said.
-
"As you wish, Sarah." Bedlam began walking away from the clearing, hands in his pockets. "Let's go, Lunar. You were right, she needs her space."
-
"And a lot of it," Lunar said. [spoiler]End?[/spoiler]
