Hello, you have reached the inbox of "-oh, wait, she's speaking to me? I had no idea machines had people inside of them this is simply amazi-BEEEEEP."
Please leave your message after the tone.

I know that was you talking to [a beat, she has to remember his name] to Credo!

Hey, you called me a monster, but at least I'm honest about the people I kill! You can't even admit it! That definitely makes you worse!

[no... it doesn't... but this is diva logic]

Nervous, are you, miss?

[His voice is unfeeling now, as if he is just wasting time on replying to this message.]

I never said that I didn't admit it. If he asked, I would tell the truth. Because unlike some people, I don't lie to save myself.

[Then tone upsets her, and she visibly bristles]

I'm not nervous!! [No, that's a complete lie.] Ugh, you're unbelievable! Of course I would lie to save myself! It's just surviving! Anyone else would!

You sound like you are.

[A slight laugh.]

Really? Because many people wouldn't. How long are you going to keep weaving your web of lies, miss? Until somebody tears it down and reveals you to be the inhuman thing that you are?

[If she were prone to it, she would be cursing up a storm right now, but she's far too ladylike for it, rather ironically. But her face is turning red]

I am not weaving a web of lies, or anything like that! And why would I even care about being human? I don't want to be human!

[she's going to throw a tantrum at this rate] Humans are terrible, nasty things! I'd never want to be like them!

[Another laugh.]

I think they're the most wonderful things God has ever created.

And it sounds to me that you are gathering people around you for a shield with that pretty face of yours, too. How many people will you sacrifice to save yourself? Two? Ten? A hundred?

[Coldly,] As many as I need to. They're not worth my loyalty.

Why? They're people. They may love you and protect you, and you turn them away? Why do you want to hurt them so badly?

[She looks furious for a moment, angrier than he's ever seen her. She doesn't want to hurt them, but it just happens, because they can't understand her. It's definitely their fault, not hers.]

[But the look passes, returning to a cold, even glare]

You don't understand that yet, Cherie? You're not doing a good job.

Doing a good job at what?

[His eyebrows furrow a bit in slight confusion.]

What do you mean?

[She takes a deep breath. His confusion is giving her the time to not explode.]

Understanding me. If you can't understand something that simple...

[Diva doesn't finish the sentence, shrugging her shoulders slightly]

I am trying my best, miss. [He exhales, trying to calm his own jumpy thoughts inside his own head.]

It isn't easy, you know...I've never been this one-on-one with someone like this before. So you have to understand that it's not like I can read you like a book. Talking to someone is much more different than watching them.

[Her eyes flutter in surprise, and she looks wary and doubtful. Is that... a moment of weakness? ~~impossoburu!!~~]

Ah... [What's she supposed to say here?] I don't know what to tell you.

[She frowns, but shrugs shortly after the surprise passes] I'm not completely uncaring, though! That's all I meant!

[Angels have weaknesses too IT IS SHOCKING I KNOW.]

...

I know. But still, you killed people and didn't care. And you know I cannot stand behind that.

Well, yes, but that doesn't mean you have to make me sound like I don't care about anyone! You know I do!

Who? Your children? Is that it, though? You haven't shown that you care about anyone else in this place, except maybe your accomplice.

[She just... pouts...]

I care about at least someone else. [But she doesn't want to admit it, because that would mean that she cares for a human! And that he's absolutely charming.] And I don't hate everyone here. Some people are really nice.

[But after seeing that Cheriour shared part of their conversation, the sweetness is gone again. And Cheriour might just notice that the room behind her is in about this shape...]

[she threw a tantrum, so what]

You're unbelievable! This is private. How dare you share it with anyone?!

[Cheriour is still annoyed by this whole thing. Really, what was Credo thinking? So he answers stiffly, not with kindness and politeness as he usually does.]

Because I needed him to know what your true thoughts are.

Be thankful that I did not share our previous conversation as well. Unless, of course, you'd like me to?

[She knows exactly what he's talking about, but she'll feign a misunderstanding in hopes of getting him flustered]

Ah, you could, I guess, but that's a little rude too. You shouldn't show off my body to other people.

[He lets out a laugh in amusement.]

You do realize I could only share the audio of our conversation? Sorry to disappoint you, miss, but I won't be advertising your body anytime soon, don't you worry.

[She laughs in turn, leaning back with an easy smile]

Oh, I am relieved! I would hate so much to be blackmailed!
