Thank you for finding me
And thank you for the care
"I'm not dead, you know. Just alive in a different way." Sam insisted. He'd heard from people before that assumed the Ascended were undead, vampires or zombies almost; it was not really the truth. They were just people that got their sustenance from another source, whose heartbeats pushed fluid around their bodies and not blood.
It was both a surprise and a confirmation of suspicions to know Evie had had to hide too. She had been the 'better' child, but their home had been such a horribly negative place, full of conflict and anger...anyone would want to escape it sometimes. "Mmm...the ruins always frightened me a little as a child. I was scared of ghosts." Now it felt silly, now that he knew souls were snatched away by Ludo or left to stay with The Voice.
The trees around them began to thin out in one direction as something like a path appeared, old gravel and grown-over moss marking the way. "You always like to tell me how you're the older one, though. Doesn't that make me the new model?" He asked, a playful smile on his lips as he made his way down the path.

And fuck you for making me
Think that this life might be fair
