And it takes a long time to change a way of thinking.

It's harder, I think, when you spend time around mortals. Loss isn't . . . common among Gods.

I don't think there's ever been a name for what I am.
(
she's been called a god but she knows she's not.
)
I've lived over six thousand years. Some have called me a god or immortalt but I'm not.

You could choose. Or you could not.

I choose to be Andy.
(
she shrugs.
)
But I'm over six thousand years old. I don't know how or why or why I was chosen. But I am.

And considering you're sitting here with me right now...
(
she pauses for a second.

You're still here.

[ a loose shrug. ]
I was then chosen to be used. Chosen to play a part. And then discarded. Died a few times.
And I suppose I am here because the anomaly chose for me to live.

And do you think you're making the best of that second chance?
(
since that's what she sees it as.

I think that's all you can do.
(
she smiles, reaching for his hand.
)
And I hope no one asks more of you.

[ he smiles, turning his palm upward so he can clasp it. ]
What would they ask anyway?

I don't know.
(
of course he'd want specifics. she laughs.
)
But if there's a possibility of getting more out of someone, someone will think to ask.
