Dead and dying. People will start thinking it's my favorite pastime.

[sniffles--from a "cold", or...]

I wonder if it's worth it, coming back. Those guys... will bring us back, right?
Do I mind either way?

Awwww, now that's...don't be that way about it. You too?

[His voice is raw, tiring]

I knoooow, I know it's really bad, but don't-...don't sing something like that. C'mon. Don't let your heart feel so sad. Don't let it's song be so down.

[There's some rustling, and a few gentle Sitar chords, echoing he hummed melody in a brighter key.]

...Does it? Feel sad? Are you supposed to, or angry? Or lonely, like you're singing? I can't tell how I'm supposed to be, dying this slowly. Its too calm to panic.

Oh. ...Yeah, me, too.

That's actually... my favorite song. I've loved it for a long time--seems kind of weird now. I don't really know how I feel.

...Well. I feel like I'm dying twice. ...But I don't even know what that means.

I was one of the first to catch it, I think. I hope I'm not the one who spread it to the poor guy next poor to me.

[More chords, tweaked out lazily, with an underscoring drone of harmonics.]

Really? Your favorite? Not that it's not...pretty, just...erm, sounds sorta depressing. If you ask me.

Dying twice, huh? Did you think you were dying too, and then you wound up here? My last death (sort of) came alot quicker than this...get sicker and sicker and die in two weeks thing.

...and Dr. Tam says I shouldn't have any company over. I'm...really glad I have this thing, I guess, to talk with people still.

Depressing? [laugh] I guess that's true.
What's that instrument you're playing, though? I don't recognize it. It's got strings, right?

I was dead already. But... I wasn't sure, until now. Or maybe I was, but I didn't want to let myself believe it.
I wonder if it'll be as bad this time. What am I saying, dying is always bad...

Does he, now? He hasn't said anything to me, yet. Maybe I should move somewhere further away from people...

[memorysuicide]

You too? You were...dead before you got here?

I don't know if I'd want to come back to this place.

[whisperedlonely]

Knowing that I'm dead anyway... kind of takes the point out of everything.

How'd you die, if that's not too weird to ask?

How did I...?

[memorysuicide]

...

I wanted to die, so I could be with Mary again.

But, it doesn't matter. Even death won't take me to her. Especially now that I'm here...
