[She was doomed from the moment they met, something she realized awhile ago.]

So what do we do now?

[negotiates]

Nothing. Continue living your life as you would normally. Nothing need change on your part.

[He's quite sure about this at least. Vampire spy or not, there will be minimal disruption to Amy's life.]

[waitedlongenough]

You say that like I live some big, fancy life.

[negotiates]

I say that because you have a life and I'm not here to take that away.

[No, really. He's not. He visits, that's all. Otherwise he stays out of her life.]

[waitedlongenough]

[negotiates]

[waitedlongenough]
