No, no, stick with me on this, okay? [he holds his hands out in front of him, as awkward as it is in this position] Not 'conception' like making a baby, alright.
[a beat] Or maybe a little bit with the other question, but not yours I don't think. And really, feel free not to tell me if it is, unless I get to be a godfather or something. But concepts. That's what I'm talking about.
I'm talking about the fact that this guy you were dating in your alternate timeline, he's used to considering you to be dead, right? Like maybe you aren't right now, but that was the norm he was introduced to in the beginning, yeah.
And it can be a bit tricky to work around the idea of dating a ghost, I guess. Probably.
No, but like - I've totally had a body before. For months, and it made pretty much zero difference. [ not to mention the fact that the aidan she was dating was a completely different aidan than the one she knew before, hard as that is to admit. ]
Nope, no, you're still missing my point here, Sally.
[he holds one finger out in front of her face, wiggles it a little to make sure her attention is on it.] He knew you as a ghost first, right? Then even when you're not a ghost, he's always going to sort of think of you that way in the back of his mind regardless.
[now a different finger on the other hand comes up beside the first one] Whereas in this alternate universe, he met you first while you were alive. So he thinks of you as alive.
Plus. [wrinkling his nose] Is this other time you had a body when you were a zombie because I gotta tell you, zombies aren't super arousing either.
