What a relief to hear you needn't offer up the one sacrifice you were adamant you didn't want to make.
[She's being a bit precise there; though the first time they'd discussed the pen, Solomon had waved off the idea of himself becoming the sacrifice...Cantarella suspects that he might also need to put some certain amount of himself into his sigils.]
Was Sika Madu forthcoming at all, about what "the other side of this" really entails? We were given a story to play out at the very beginning, but stories are built off of something true, right?
Of course not. There isn't much I can do to help if I'm dead before my time. If and when I die, I would rather it be because I had no other choice, not because it was the easy choice.
[Arrogant and stubborn as he is, even when it comes to life. But he treats it with levity in his tone, as though to talk about it doesn't hold much weight at all.]
Whatever their plan is for escape, they've kept it locked up tight. But they've told much about their motivations.
[His smile sharpens, just slightly.]
They wish to destroy Heaven, and Father along with it. And they wish to resurrect their children, no matter the cost.
[Sentinel above, he can really be a bit insufferable, albeit in a way that she imagines hides the hurt.
Her eyebrows twitch, then knit, as if she is trying to view a piece of art in a gallery from several angles.]
And I take it this agreement you drew up with them is an attempt to factor us out from that cost? Perhaps knowing what would happen once we get to that point would be too advantageous... and not included in your terms.
[If he ignores all the hurt and buries it deep inside then no one ever has to see it!!!! win win]
As much I'd like to say I was that forward thinking, my pact was drawn far before they ever provided me with an honest answer from their lips.
Letting them get too far into their plans without something in place would let the chance slip by me altogether. So what lines I drew, I drew in the knowledge that they could be, among many things, a demon. And a demon that desires something deeply in their being can't be trusted in the way you trust a person.
