“Hey, do I look like I work for free?” Feigning annoyance, he tried his best to sell the lie, hoping that Ky would buy it. If demons emerged in the human world, seeking to do harm, Dante would do his best to intervene, with or without the promise of a monetary reward. 
   It simply felt proper to do so.

“But since you’re just sittin’ there, why don’tcha make yourself useful and start closin’ those damn gates.” He paused for a moment, then, beginning to smirk. Waiting for the right moment to deliver the punchline. “Or else I’ll show you why I’ve earned my devil hunting reputation.”

  _{“I don’t close gates,” Ky said, not even bothering to spare Dante a second’s glance. If he did now, it would have been more of a scowl or even glare – still, it wasn’t like he could do much. Even if he did… there was doubt it would actually turn out half-way decently.} 

     _{“If you want them closed,” a pause as he sucked in a deep breath and let it out slowly. “you can do them yourself -you may have earned a reputation, but i’m not in the mood to make anyone down there more pissed off.” a least more than they were already. ”not today, dante. not today.”}
