I'm sure it's much more complicated than that, but that's what got you here.

[That being said, she'll stick to Australia.]

Lots of desert, but also some thriving cities. Plenty to do where you could keep yourself occupied for a decade or so, but plenty of space to move around so no one notices that you don't age.

You're taking me to Australia, but where are you going? After.

( He hears the 'you' 'you' 'you.' )

Why are you helping me?

[She looks up at him and considers her answer for a moment.]

Your family's been very good to me. I know it sounds odd to say, given I'm a vampire, you saved my life. The least I could do is play point of reference and go on holiday with you to Australia.

[She pauses.]

That is, if you think you would enjoy my company.

[uniquelyvulnerable]

I may not know who I am, but I know I would very much enjoy your company. If you'll have me.

( He stops packing, then, offering his hand. )

[She smiles, before reaching forward to shake his hand.]

Good.

[Then she holds up her phone.]

Tickets are bought, so if you're ready to go we can head to the airport.
