taken aback at the outburst – while he evidently noticed a distaste for the nickname, he hardly thought it was to the extreme to result in threats. eddie shrugged it off ultimately, yet noting the others sensibilities. a nonchalant, calming voice coupled with his lazy half smile at this banter, ‘ ya know, i wouldn’t appreciate that, hushpuppy. ’
truth be told, ky wouldn’t either, but it wouldn’t stop him from making threats. even more so when he got angry or annoyed by eddie’s little choice of nicknames. ‘and i don’t appreciate humans thinking they are better than me.’ it was a jab – one that ky knew he’d eventually pay for, but he didn’t quite care at the moment. ‘– do remember that.’
the second she knew he was near, she’d been moving to get away as fast as possible. she couldn’t know for sure what powers she had now ( she couldn’t remember whatever powers deo had mentioned, or if he’d mentioned the specifics at all ), she couldn’t know what sort of new damage she could do to ky’lar at this point.
she was supposed to ask mephistopheles if he’d ground his grandson, but she’d never gotten the chance to before she died.

“i don’t think you have thatprivilegeanymore, jan.”
he should have toned down his hubris and his snark. he should have voiced that slight amount of concern and worry that he always ignored. it was easier in his mind to feed the fire that was his anger and rage. to feed it to the point where everything around him became hollow and numb.
to stop feeling the emotions that he couldn’t let creep back into his life. not not now. not after he was just trying to pull himself together the right away – to move away from caring about anyone besides himself.
“ i just came to see if the rumor i heard was true.”
8:55 pm — ‘ last i checked.’ 8:55 pm — ‘ torturing people wasn’t a TANTRUM.’ 8:56 pm — ‘ now, ripping angels wings off? now that IS one.’ 8:56 pm — ‘ i just HAVEN’T done that… yet.’
“i would have thought by now that you knew there was no escape.” not from his ownership at least. he always enjoyed digging the knife in. even more so when he was in one of his moods, “though, i must say that a collar would be a great addition. especially when your attitude these days.”
The one time he tried to be decent, the one time he tried to be better then his own nature, and he was asked to leave. it was a simple request, one that he would have honestly done if this was any other time, but he was attempting to do something good for once.
Something, that would have at least give some repentance for all the death he had already caused. As for how long this mood would last was another question, but for now, he was hoping that one decent act would suffice for the moment.
Of course, reality didn’t work like that, “Good luck with that.” He said, not even bothering to give the Captain more than a quick glance over, “I’m right where I need to be.”
