I know him. He won't.

[phaseshifter]

I don't think he will, either, but. That's not what I asked.

[devoutish]

What if he turned into a pig and flew away, Angel? What then?

[phaseshifter]

You're awfully set on avoiding answering that one, aren't you.

[devoutish]

I don't see the point. Yes, I would do things differently if the situation was different. That's no surprise, is it.

[phaseshifter]

I suppose it isn't surprising, no. It's just - you always seem so, uh. Unflappable, I guess? So reminders that you care are always welcome. I'm teasing you. A bit.

[devoutish]

You already think I'm puffing myself up about being a bad sort of man; I'd hate to encourage you more.

[phaseshifter]

I don't think you're puffing yourself up, exactly. Just oversimplifying. Especially considering my own ideas of what makes a bad person, obviously.

[devoutish]

Ah - but I'm not. I've never said that a bad man is all that I am.

[phaseshifter]

But it's what you put emphasis on! And personally I'd slot you into the not-quite-bad category.

[devoutish]

I put my emphasis on it when other people try to oversimplify it - telling me that I'm a nice man on the inside, that I'm covering that up.

[phaseshifter]

Wait - you're telling me that you aren't a complete teddy bear on the inside? The gangster thing isn't just a front to cover up your rampant urges to hug everyone you see?

[devoutish]

You're very funny.

[phaseshifter]

And disarmingly cute. It's a combination that lets me make fun of dangerous people without causing offense! Neat, isn't it.

[devoutish]

You're too old to be cute.

[phaseshifter]

You're never too old to be cute, Alfie. Unless you think "adorable" fits better. "Freaking precious?"

[devoutish]

A brat, but with a knack for not being bad enough to be infuriating. It's a skill women from your world have.

[phaseshifter]

See, "cute" is much snappier. I'll accept your version, though. But only because it's kinda flattering!

[devoutish]

You have impressed me, from time to time.

[phaseshifter]

Fine, thoroughly flattering. Being impressive beats being cute every time.

[devoutish]

You've got good priorities, girl. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
