Undead, but not the zombie kind

Summary:

Klaus wants to find the Fountain of Youth and tries to enlist the help of Ben.

Notes:

Written for Day 13 of the February Ficlet Challenge 2023. Prompt: Fountain of Youth

Yet another conversation fic, because that is my fallback lol.

Bold = Ben, Regular = Klaus

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

"Ben"

"Bennnnnn"

"Benerinooooo"

 

"WHAT KLAUS!"

 

"do you think the fountain of youth exists?"

 

"no, why would it?"

 

"I mean, given the world we live in, I can see ghosties, you have a octopus monster in your belly, time travel is real, why not the fountain of youth?"

 

"don't you think people would be talking about it more if it existed?"

 

"I mean, maybe people just don't believe them?"

 

"why, did you want to go?"

 

"pfffttt of course benerino! What a silly question?"

 

"okay....why"

 

"I mean, I can't die, but I can obviously get older, so why wouldn't I want to stay young and hot forever?"

 

"ugh, Klaus, you're so vain!"

 

"yes thank you brother, I know!"

 

"that was not a compliment"

 

"eh, I'll take it"

"soooo do you wanna help?"

 

"help?"

 

"help me find the fountain of youth, obviously!"

 

"do I even have a choice?"

 

"not really. But if you help it will be much faster!"

 

"..."

 

"hey, do you think if you go into it you'll become un-dead?"

 

"WHAT?"

 

"not like zombie un-dead, like alive again!"

 

"..."

 

"..."

 

"alright I'll help you."

 

"YAYYYYY!"

 

THE END.
