"Oh." Alex said. And then, smiling brighter, "Oh! That's awesome. I've never met a zombie. Ghouls, yes, but that's not the same thing--you used to be human, then? I'll have to let the mice know, I'm not sure if an actual used-to-be-human zombie is in the family books yet, but they'll know." He was rambling, he knew, but this was exciting! A new discovery! And she wasn't the growling, biting, horror movie type of zombie! She could tell him things and he could take notes!
"Oh, I'm Alex. Price. Hi." He held out his hand so that she could shake it properly. "My grandfather Martin would love to meet you. He's a Revenant."
