"Why do people have to die, Lindsay?"
She studies him for a moment, the red-rimmed eyes, the slumped shoulders and dimmed spirit. He needs something. An answer, clearly; he told her as much. Why he needs it from her is a greater puzzle she doesn't want to think of just this minute.
"To make life important," Lindsay says finally.
Flack seems to accept this, but he looks like he's going to cry. And Lindsay won't let him cry, not out in the hall like some sort of stranger. She tugs him into her apartment, explaining softly that she's going to take care of him. And she does.
