“You’re tired. You could come with me. You deserve to be unmade.”
“I am made of others” I replied. “I cannot unmake without forgetting.”

“Even the most remembered are eventually forgotten.”
“Then I will remember them longer.”
He laughed, quiet and kind. That was the worst part.
“You are the most stubborn man I’ve ever failed to take.”
