The parts of Theo that were still, if not sane, then a little more lucid than the rest really did like Zach coming to visit him. Theo had never really cared for friends before he'd lost himself, but since then he'd lived in a world where his own company had to make do for conversations and situations; having another body around was pleasant.
Unfortunately, Theo was still very predominantly insane and something Zach said definitely triggered something inside him, because the next thing he did was try, painfully pathetic, to struggle up.
"No!" he shouted, his voice should have been aggressive but it was just desperate, and a little afraid. "No, I didn't want it, I don't want it! Ever! I NEVER WANTED IT!" He screamed now, still trying to push away but lacking the physical strength to do so.
