[She just keeps staring at him, her expression growing more and more uncomfortable the longer he goes on. After a beat, she just scoffs and starts pulling herself up.]
You can just say it. You think I'm a monster, right?
But I haven't killed anyone, if that's why you're asking. The avatars have been taking care of me since we got here. They're not as bad as everyone else makes them out to be, you know?
[Luca, having only positive experiences with the NPCs.]
But that's good. I didn't know if that machine could make food for your diet too. And I didn't even think of you killing anyone until now, even if that explains what could have happened to Kaz- aaaaaand I'll be shutting up now.
Fuck you, I liked Kaz! And even if he was secretly a monster and deserved to die, I can't bite through bone and I won't eat people's buttholes! Those would have been on that table, you asshole.
[A LONG SIGH... Truly hate this is the last actual conversation they'll have. Goddamn it, Maple.]
Just get in the bathroom, Luca. I'm going to go make myself a smoothie and drink it passive aggressively, while you spend an hour in there and come out looking exactly the same.

Look, it's- it's very surprising! And it's not like the undead even exist in my world in the first place, I don't know how any of it works.

[A beat.]
... But thank you for trying anyway. It's surprisingly decent of you.

Um. This might be a bit personal to ask, but if you're a zombie then how are you eating? Do we need to acquire a body for you?
[Luca deadass about to ask the npcs for food for Sheila.]
