Not quite what I meant although I wouldn’t mind if my impending doom were to be by your hand.

That's nice. Well as much as I've enjoyed this, I have things to do.

Come on, don’t be like that. Don’t act like you don’t enjoy it when I do - as if you don’t anticipate it.

Anticipate what, your impending demise? 

Well I’m just saying. 

Yea, maybe you should stop saying things. 

Hm… Maybe I’m just doing something wrong here then.

What a surprise. 

Sobriety, I have found, coincides with bitterness.

I haven't found that to be the case.

Young and beautiful.

Of course one can mean something.

I get it, I look very young. It comes in handy in more ways than one, sweetheart. 

Are you sure?

Everybody dies at some point. Why should one mean something.

I don’t. I don’t want anybody else to touch you. I’m silly. I get furious if they touch you.

Does that include you?

I don't feel any different so I'll have to say no.

Right. Lovely as this has been, are we finished now? 

Until next time.

What a pleasant surprise it will be for you then.

Oh, yes, because you’re clearly the best judge of behavior. God, Serena. Your obsession with my relationships and habits and actions and what they may or may not mean is just ridiculous, and, honestly, tiring. What I do really isn’t of your concern, and I didn’t ask for your opinion, so if you’re struggling so much, why don’t you spend more time worrying about yourself and less time worrying about me? 

I'm sick Kyle, we know that. But you're here saying that you've got your life under control when that's just a damn lie. 

Serena, it’s fine. If you need something to help with your ‘grieving stages,’ then take something, but I don’t have the space or the desire for any of it in the apartments I’ve been looking at. 

What the fuck Ky, are you really trying to destroy yourself? You're moving? You have to slow down and stop being such an idiot. You continuously reek of elixirs, your sass is through the roof, and you're doing that thing where you start crushing on a girl who's twisted. S'not a good mix. You just got out of a sexless relationship and then the thing happened. I don't know how many more times I have to warn you, because clearly I'm the only one seeing this. Maybe it's because I'm one of the few here that knew you before all this happened, but this isn't you. And I'm pretty pissed about what happened too, and I'm finding very little reason for me to not just return to my old habits, but at least I'm trying not to. You could end up in a not so great place.

Uh, no. I’ve already got my apartment to worry about. Speaking of, is there anything you want of - I’m trying to sort through everything and get rid of what I don’t need for the new one.

Don't throw anything of her's out this early in your grieving stage. 

From the past? I thought you still worked and played with Remus.

I do but I'm referring to when I lived with him for – can't finish that sentence I'll start puking. I'm the only one who keeps that apartment of his clean. Unless you wanna pick up that job.

Why bother, you already know.

Yeah let's not revisit my horrible choice from the past.
