A/N: So close to one hundred words! I was only six words over it. Anyway— spoilers up to the last episode, though they're really only briefly touched.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Sadly.

Immortality tastes bitter, like blood, in her mouth.

She folds her hands as her body shakes. Somewhere, bells ring and a clock booms out midday. For the first time that day, she raises her face as a tear splits down her cheek. For the first time in a century, she is crying.

There will be no need to buy a newspaper to understand what is happening. She knows, as certain as certain can be, that he is dead and she is once more alone. But C.C. hopes he died with a smile on his face, just as she is.
