❝ Since when is accurately identifying your species, name calling? And I can see that, you’re just bleeding out everywhere. ❞ She was uneasy, eyes tracking every movement he made. This was hardly the time or place for this, backstage after one of her shows. There were bodies milling everywhere, stagehands, costumers, press… ❝ State your business. Before I make you state your business. And for the record, I do not have working relationships with your kind, so do not get your hopes up. ❞
❝ Should I call you human then? ❞ A slight grin spread across his features for a few moments. ❝ If memory serves me correctly, fair is fair isn’t it? Especially these days. ❞ Ky took another step forward. ❝ I was hoping you could help me with something, but as it seems… you’re far more interested in helping those… lesser’s than someone of a much higher standing. ❞
❝ YOU shouldn’t be here, demon. ❞ Their kind always made the hair on the back of her neck stand up, magic crackling just underneath the surface of her skin in reaction to his mere presence. Zatanna’s experience with hellspawn was limited, but she was not going to be intimidated. She couldn’t LET herself be intimidated. ❝ You don’t feel like the others I have met, but it makes no difference to me. State your business before I make you. ❞
❝ I shouldn’t be ANYWHERE, but name calling? ❞ Sarcasm dripped from his lips as his arms folded across his chest. Truth be told, her words didn’t affect him, but Ky never could resist putting on a show. ❝ I’m hurt. ❞ It was clear he wasn’t – even as he made his way forward towards her. ❝ You see, for a moment, I almost thought we’d be able to have a real working relationship. ❞ Of course, even that was up for debate, but Ky was patient. At least for this specific plan of his.
