( It's like another of those things, isn't it? One of those dreams, except here there aren't any out of body experiences here, the whole thing isn't anything he's ever encountered before, whether as one of the Living or Dead, and it looks like his speech is still shot to pieces. Not quite as small as they were at the beginning, at least, but it's a step backward nonetheless. )

Don't... really m - mind.

( It's a new experience. He'd prefer not to be an empty vessel, and besides, what's there to lose? )

[It's like looking into your future, Sally.]

You don't mind being used for some geek's thrills?

( R cants his head, and offers a shrug. Things have changed, now; if he can't hoard found objects, it's the experiences he'll keep and catalog. )

Already died... anyway. ( Live fast, die young, leave a beautiful corpse? He's got two out of three. ) Doesn't matter.

[reapercussion]

Well, yeah. [She gestures to him.] It's a little hard to miss that. [Sally frowns at that, though. She's been there. Not like corpse there, but being dead.] I guess this would be like your second chance, then.

[slouching]

Right.

( R falls still and silent for a moment, unblinking, and moves to roll out a kink in one stiff shoulder after a time in a few jerky motions. )

Just... lucky.
