"Well it's my job to keep you safe," Zack pointed out. He would admit an android for a charge was new but Connor certainly needed one with how often he threw himself into danger for the good of others. "Not the other way around. You focus on the others. I focus on you."

Zack frowned "I wasn't trying to rub it in," he assured softly giving the other a hesitant squeeze to the shoulder. "It's was an affectionate laugh. Not a mocking one," the angel explained. "Do you want some help? Or to figure it out on your own?"

Zack frowned slightly kneeling next to his charge "You... want to be dead?" He was aware it was a coping comment. Though the question was understandable, what with his pale gold wings out kneeling next to the mortal dead was an understandable assumption. Especially given until now he had simply bee the human's favorite barista. "You aren't dead. You're in between," he informed. "You'll be going back soon enough. I'm just here to comfort you in the mean time," he assured. "You likely won't even remember any of this."

Zack was trying very hard not to laugh, was even biting his lip to prevent it as he helped Randy up. "Well you know the trope had to come from somewhere," he said. "I didn't think I had to be on the lookout to protect from banana peels," he teased.

Zaz raised a brow "I feel like I need a slightly longer version of the story," he said with a small smile. "How did 'exploring ruins' lead to 'lack of body hair' exactly?"
