[She shifts over to her side and tilts her head down to lean over him, a tiny curtain of blonde obscuring her face. A little exasperated.] Yeah, yeah. I get it. If any of the birds ever hurt you, I promise I'll stop talking to them. [She smiles softly down at him before hitting the tip of his nose with the tip of her highlighter. A tiny dot of pink on his skin.] I'd never want an easy excuse to hate you, baby. [She sighs and opens her mouth to say something, but can't formulate the sentence for a few beats. Finally, softly:] I don't want you to resent me for that either though. For you feeling lonely.
