Witty, he thought. Quite shrewd and clever, as the speeding car bore down on him. Witty, he thought, with his last breath and fading light in his eyes.
I remember, yes I do. They say I don't, 'cause of the accident, but I do, I do. We watch a lot of wrestling. I like the Ultimate Warrior. He's so cool. Little flashes of recognition between days of horrifying stupidlity. Have you ever seen Jackass? It's awesome when they get hit in the nuts. LOL!ROTFLOL!1! Spray cheese is really good if you put in on summer sausage. I can't be sure, but in moments of lucidity, I am keenly aware that something about a dead parrot once brought me great joy. Green ain't supposed to come out your belly button?
He's a witty guy. He makes the monotony of normal life seem not as bad as it actually is. He's a smart guy. He often lightly boasts when he performs better than me on a test or exam. I don't mind, though, I like smart guys. He's a musical guy. He can play guitar- and violin. He can't sing, though, but I don't really care. If he has all these advantages, then why do I resist taking the plunge? Because he's also a guy who's broken girl's hearts, and left them shattered in pieces on the ground. That won't happen to me, I say.
He is not a man to engage in clever conversation, nor one to really follow it when his partner does so. But Emmaline is good at it, making those around her laugh and cringe by turns, feeling out the areas that were most fearsome to them and bringing them to startling light.
Sommaline sometimes wonders if he looks a fool beside her. But he doesn't let it bother him. She's never manipulating his fears when she does it, what few fears he does have.
Emmaline has never been a thing that he is afraid of.
