Summary
*…Are you really that determined to try and save me from my fate?*
The Beheaded wavered, silent for a moment. His flame slowed before flickering erratically again, his body tensing under the Drifter’s touch.
“...Don’t look at me like that. I told you, I’m just thinking. There has to be some good thing to come out of this whole world-hopping hoo-rah-rah. Don’t you think?”
*My good thing is you.*
....
The Drifter wakes up to find that the Beheaded has wandered off elsewhere. When he finds him, the Beheaded tells him what's been on his mind, and it leads to a difficult conversation.
He never thought someone else would defy his acceptance of his early death.
a.k.a. the Drifter and the Beheaded process inevitable death, fear, and grief together.
