for the rest of us death will be a relief

It wasn't pretty off the bat, but now that cooler heads prevail.

I don't think they're murderous.

[deathlessness]

Good. That's a refreshing change of pace for New Orleans.

[It would be a shame if they were. She's been enjoying Damon's presence in her life, even if it's new and nebulous. It's why she's going to offer, even though she knows that this is still fairly casual:]

Anything I can do to help?

[unforgivably]

This helps. I am going to have to go out of town for the holidays, though. Save me a dance on New Years?

[deathlessness]

I'd like that. You know where to find me.

[She isn't planning on going out of town, and he knows her favorite spot. She's an old lady, so she's predictable.]

I will check in when I have more say in if things turn murderous. I don't expect them to, but one of our first dates was preceded by the murderous, so, I can't rule anything out.

[deathlessness]

What can I say? I like to keep things interesting.

[Because that was one of her complications instead.]

For what it's worth, I'll be rooting for your Christmas to be murder-free.

Yours, too 🩸✨
