Joe- "Yeah, someone left real flowers earlier. I bet origami is more clinically safe, anyhow. Pleased to meet you, Alex."

"Oh, definitely it is. When I used to volunteer at the retirement home, I always brought paper flowers because Missus Maria - she was one of my friends who lived there, and we played cards a lot - had pollen allergies. Hey, how long have you guys been alone in the clinic? I don't feel right leaving you without somebody else to supervise. If you want me to be quiet, I'll be quiet. That's fine. You two need rest. I can just sit here and read, all unobtrusively. Or I can sit on the other side of the room." He took out a book. "Harry Potter. It's supposed to be good, but so far I really don't understand why Harry's aunt and uncle treat him badly. Maybe the book will make sense as I read more."

Joe- "You're funny, kid. Haven't read Harry Potter yet? I thought all the kids your age grew up with that stuff... Yeah go ahead and have a sit, or whatever you like. Seth'll probably be back in a little while, went to go talk with.. that kid, I don't remember if he said his name. With the sunglasses."

"Bryce! Bryce, right? Kinda soft, cute like a kitten? Banters well? Intellectual? Those guys are tight. Mmmhmm. Definitely Bryce. He's been wearing sunglasses lately, too." Alex flipped idly through the book. "Oh! It has pictures! That's great." He unobtrusively began reading next to Joe.

Joe laid back for a little while, glancing sometimes at Becky. After a few minutes, he looked over to Alex. Joe- "Hey um, seems like people here get along pretty well, that's cool. So, is it... uh, safe? In your opinion..."

"It's the safest place in this city. In my opinion. But ..." He looked at Joe and smiled faintly. "Yes. It's safe. We take lots of precautions. These monsters are horrible, but they follow rules. Each can be defeated, you know? Like ghosts catch on fire and haunt special places. Demons can't answer personal questions. You've been through a lot, huh? Just try to relax. We'll protect you."

Joe- "Yeah I guess that's true. I never heard the one about demons--Oh, wow... I sort of remember something, them asking those weird questions outside before we could come in. Feels like a dream, I don't even remember if I answered! Hah... Well I don't feel like a demon so I think I'm okay." He smiled weakly.

"Hahaha! You guys are fine. I can tell, because demons are total jackasses. Sorry. I'm sorry. That's not a word for ladies. Good thing your friend's asleep, huh? But seriously. Jack. Asses. They're pretty tough, but we'll find that Achilles heel soon enough. Like. Throw salt at 'em. Poof. Say their name backwards. I dunno. Yet. The truth is out there. Hey, do you believe in aliens?"

Joe- "Wow... There you go again. * weak * Yeah, aliens. I don't know. Seems funny to consider now. I guess they might be out there, huh?"

"I'm loquay-shus. It's a gift and a curse. Hm. Asking about aliens does seem pretty random, though. You see, my friend thinks ETs have a plan for us. I'm trying to understand her point of view. It's pretty damn ... eccentric. Then again, look at the stars! There are like a hundred thousand in our Milky Way alone. So many." Joe- "Yeah, the people I know that seem the smartest give me the idea it's real likely aliens are out there, but they probably don't look anything like us or have anything to do with us. I think it's best to let kooky people believe what they need to believe."
"So, I heard Beau helped you guys. He's noble, huh? I wish he said au revoir instead of just slipping away last night like some ... some ... heroic ninja." Joe- "Mm. I hate it. Someone saves my life, then goes out and throws his away. It bothers me a lot."
Alex bit his thumbnail anxiously. "Maybe adieu is more appropriate."

Joe- "I don't know. What's the difference?"

"People say adieu when they'll be gone a long time - maybe forever. Dieu means God, so the English version is something like: we'll meet again in heaven." Joe- "What?! *wheeze*"
He didn't want Joe's morale to plummet, so Alex added, "He'll return someday. Beau isn't throwing his life away. There's something different about him. Did you notice? It's hard to describe. He got a certain, uh, je ne sais quoi. And I don't just say that because he's really, really, ridiculously good looking." Joe- "You're too much, Alex." "So, uh, speaking of people ((Alex was proud of this segue)), have you ever crossed paths with a guy named Emiliano?"

A Seth rolled up on these dudes, alone. He looked in a decent spirit, but was just slightly shambolic on his feet. Seth- "Oh, hey Alex. You guys having a good chat?" He hopped up on his bed, but didn't lie down just yet.
