[anna is coming to appreciate many things about paul even from this short conversation. the grace he affords her to ignore what she doesn't want either of them to dwell on. the sincerity behind saying that anna would be missed if she were gone, taking her almost by such surprise that she doesn't know how to respond to it. and the welcome audacity to keep asking more questions that prevent anna from dwelling too much on the first two things she likes about him.]

[if nothing else, she can give him a grateful look at the implication that she would actually be missed if she left.]


A little bit, yeah. But I think the thing that really pulled me into the sunlight was... this one time, like a month after I started changing, when a friend of mine let me try on this magic ring of hers that let her fly. [she turns one hand up at the wrist, palm towards paul.] I know, but you're gonna have to get used to weird stuff like that with me. But what happened was... I mean, I tried the ring on, and I flew. I saw a restaurant that I'd been going to for years, but I saw it from 40 feet in the air. That's kind of what made it all connect, you know? That I was living in a world that was so much bigger than I could even guess.
