Re: dead guys house: des, newt, & pat
[Destiny's explanation, such as it was, was incomplete and confusing. She'd not been emotional. She'd felt 'the dead things' and it made her feel dead, then he (the man?) was so alive. That she'd... eaten him? Newt looked to Patrick as Destiny stared at the younger man and told him she... 'ate him.'] Er... [Newt took a step forward, but Patrick was looking up at the ceiling, in an obvious attempt to calm him.—It rather stopped mattering to him if Destiny managed to finally put two-and-two together about himself and Patrick, and Newt drew nearer his boyfriend, feeling the desperation and confusion coming off of him.
He tried to catch Patrick by the arm, and as he did so, he spoke to Destiny,] I'm assuming you're saying you somehow managed to consume his life force, as you've done with the plants. [He said this to clarify for all of their sakes. To Patrick, he said:] He's whole. There're no obvious marks on the body. [And to Destiny again,] Before we go up there, how are you feeling, right now? The dead things, ah, are they dead again? If not, can you make them that way?
