She looked at him earnestly, yes sparkling as her pieces starting putting themselves back together. "Del's done lots of things wrong. She makes Desire mad and Dream die and Destruction leave. Del does lots of things wrong always..."

She poked her fingers together, not looking at him anymore. She was nervous and sad and confused but he wasn't leaving anymore and that was good, right?

"Del didn't mean to do it wrong so does he want to come back and have chocolate or cake or mango slushie or fish...?"

He wouldn't stay because of pity, right? He'd stay because of food, or because he wanted to...

Right?
