He smiles back at her, noting that her delight is as innocent as a child's. As if she's barely seen flowers in her life. He doesn't tell her that one will live as long as he will -- he'd rather it be a surprise.] I'm hardly ever safe, but I do manage to keep myself alive, despite it all. You needn't worry about me, dear lady! A life too safe is a life too boring.
