[When the view clicks on, Anya is obviously changed. She has the glowing blue eyes, and her skin looks almost grey. She isn't quite light-skinned enough for classic pallor, but the color is leached from her face. She sits still and straight, with a degree of composure that is, in fact, precisely normal for her. She missed breakfast today, and now it's quite clear why.]

I've allowed Arthas to make me into a zombie for a few days. It is entirely temporary, and I am in control of myself and my faculties. There is no need for anyone to be alarmed.

So you think you don't have enough powers?

Or the people who care about you are just too much trouble?

[He doesn't have a particular horse in this race. He asks the questions to be potentially provoking.]

[ Zane laughs. ]

What I said was right.

You make strange choices.

I don't think it'll ever be really part of who you are.

But that's not a bad thing. You have more than enough identity without something else on top of it.

[ He means she's bold. She's such a presence, especially when you learn her language, know to watch her. ]

Changing your past, though, is the kind of violation you don't want. So that's not an experiment you can do.

Congratulations.

[ Because he knows she can. She's dead, and she hasn't changed at all. ]

[ He doesn't flinch, when she spears the shark. But he doesn't really like it, either. Interesting how deep his aversion to violence sometimes runs - just as deep as his need for it. ]

I like people better alive.

[ And, at this, he is fascinated; he draws himself out of the water to watch, and settles back when the shark is swimming again. ]

What's it like?

But you're not a puppet, like that.

[ He toys with his fingers and the surface tension of the water, thinking about touching the shark. ]

[He is silent for another moment, considering the possibility that he'd just been looking for puppets, that she is a puppet now.

No, he doesn't believe that. She's too much of herself.]

So that's why he was offering.

Thank you for telling me.

[Honesty deserves thanks, doesn't it?]

That's not so impressive.

You're welcome.

[Not much else he can think of to say. Her presence has soothed him, too, nonspecifically.

He spots something on the ocean floor, and dives. Swimming with hands and feet feels odd, still, but he manages it well enough, and he's not under for long before he surfaces again.

There's a pearl between his fingers.]

Do you want it?

[He wades out of the water, and holds out his hand, dropping the pearl into hers. He could have thrown it, but it seems more meaningful this way.]
