…Very good.

Devil has people she cares about as well, you know. She doesn’t want to hurt anyone, but it is…necessary, at times. She too has a special someone, someone who she would protect regardless of what it takes- and now they’re even. This goes two ways, Devil says. Dad revealed a personal detail in order to make herself more sympathetic, and now Devil has done the same.

What Dad does with this information is up to her, just as much as it’s up to Devil. So, now the playing field is even, and whatever happens from here will be the true test of character.

Dad takes this in, realizing she’s been tested. What starts to show as indignation turns to respect, and the dad type nods in approval. She can take that- and she hopes for Devil’s sake that her special someone is someone she can rely on, just like she can with her own- yknow, if that person wants to be that anyway.
