The person in that flood, she was both me and not me. I do not like this.

[Private to Biff]
I am ready to talk now.

[Biff began to speak, but thought better of it. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he had the idea that he shouldn't interrupt her. Instead, he leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees, a sad smile playing on his mouth.]

I have never been in love like that before, Levi-Biff. It is a weird feeling. It...

I hope the Persephone on that Barge, and the Sirius on that Barge did not become destroyed by it. What is the point of love if it destroys so utterly?

[Her voice went soft for a moment, and the goddess frowned.]

I stayed here and helped Coyo because I was a bit in love with her.

Are you afraid love will destroy you?

Yes. [Her voice was soft.]

My husband claims to love me, and yet it has torn him apart.

[He hummed softly, inclining his head to acknowledge her words.]

Some people hate more than they love, you know. It lets in jealousy and fear. The trick is to love more than you hate.

[He raised his brows and sniffed, then scratched the back of his head.]

So what do you think about all of this? You and Sirius and love?

I don't know. I have loved him, and I may love him a little bit now, but I do not...

[Persephone frowned.]

I do not feel changed. I feel the same. Caring for the mortals, it did not weaken me.

[He shrugged lightly.]

Imagine the great things people do for the world just out of love, Persephone. Love isn't a weakness. It's a great strength.

[A beat.]

I think you are changed. For the better, though.

You love.

[He said this simply, as though it was an obvious answer. He smiled slightly at her.]

Maybe you'll agree in time.

Perhaps. I do not think so.

Well, what do you think?

I think that she may have been stronger than me.

I can only guide you so far, Persephone. Sometimes, the last steps must be taken alone.

Unless you want to stay here.

[He shrugged and looked around.]

It's not so bad here. People complain, but it's not so bad.

[He smiled at her then, though he looked rather sad about the eyes.]

But if I were you, I'd want to be home before winter.

I do not want to stay. There are good people here, but I do not want to be here anymore.

The world has spun once, and I have missed summer. I wish to go home.

What will you do, Levi-Biff?

[He looked thoughtful.]

Oh, you know. I'll go see Maggie. Maybe she misses me. Maybe she doesn't. Maybe she'll smite me in the face.

[He tilted his head back to look up at the roof, then leaned back on his elbows and stretched his legs out in front of him.]

Maybe I'll come back and do this again.

I never asked; what was your deal for?

Because I don't think it's right to profit off of the soul of another person.

I promised Victor I would be faithful to Molly while I am with her, anyway.

Besides, Dracula would kill me, and I've made it this long without dying.
