Prompt:
“Merlin, did you see that kitten outside? It looks terrified!”
“I know. I told her you were raised from the dead and now she's freaked.”
“I'm not raised from the dead; I'm back from the dead! It's different.”
“I’m sure she'll be glad to hear it.”
“It’s not like I’m some mindless zombie.”
“...Right.”
“I’m not a zombie! Besides, you’ve been alive for a million years! Now that’s freaky. Maybe I’ll go tell the kitten that.”
“Be my guest.”

“How’d it go?”
“She ran away as soon as I stepped outside.”
“Smart.”
“...”
“...”
“I’m not a zombie!”
“...Okay.”
“...”
“...”
“I hate Halloween.”
