[Marley waits a while, letting the words sink in before she replies.]

I'll be careful.

[sawhell]

well, careful's just a point of view.

[wall_flower]

Fine, then I won't be like those people in the movies. Is that better?

[sawhell]

don't ask me about better. what you want to make of something as weird as this is up to you.

[wall_flower]

...Okay.

I'm Marley, by the way.

[sawhell]

I didn't ask.

but I guess forgetting to play nice is another of those cliches, isn't it? the name's Edward, for the record.

[wall_flower]

It's nice talking to you, Edward, even if you didn't ask.
I mean, it's nice meeting you, even if it's like this.

[sawhell]

somehow I get the feeling you'd say that about meeting anyone.

[wall_flower]

Is that a bad thing? To like meeting new people?

[sawhell]

depends. are we still talking about movies?

[wall_flower]

No. At least I'm not.
Are you?

[sawhell]

no. not while there's more pressing kinds of mystery to worry about.

[wall_flower]

Okay. I'll let you alone so you can work on finding some of those mysteries out. You be careful, okay?

[sawhell]

[Heh.] same to you. don't get murdered out there.

[wall_flower]

I'll try not to.
