Suerte

"Handsome and loyal," she said, spinning the gun around her finger before dropping it back in her holster where it belonged.  "Its good that your worried, but is this girl weak?  Not weak as in of physical strength, but weak of mind?"

Part of her asked that to help bim think.  The other part of her wondered what kind of girl would end up teamed up with him for a job.

YOLF:
Justice

"Flattery will get you nowhere," he rebutted, laughing. He holstered his weapon too, and leaned back against one of the dividers, crossing his arms. He stared at the ceiling, focusing on his thoughts instead of what laid in front of him.

"I don't believe she's weak. But she's young, and rushed into violence which was probably beyond her expectation, probably more callous than she was okay with, because I was there."

He was responsible.

yinsukin:
Suerte

Suerte walked towards Justice, making it a point to enter his personal space.  She looked up at him from below, staring into those guilty eyes with her own, glimmering with curiosity.  "So she is the naive type?  You don't think that it is your fault for taking her on the job right?  I mean, everyone has a first job and its never pretty.  Thrilling maybe, but never pretty."


YOLF:
Justice

He shook his head. His tone was like that of a weathered, old grandfather clock. "It was her decision, and it's blood on her hands now, I'm not about to pretend it's anything else."

Justice looked down, into Suerte's eyes, and poked her forehead with a single gloved finger.

"But not everyone's built the same. Mortals don't stack their scars into armor as casually as breathing. I'd sleep easier knowing how she's actually dealing with it, that's all."

yinsukin:
Suerte

Suerte's head bounced back from the poke and she rubbed the spot softly and slowly.  She looked at the glove for a moment, then put one hand on her hip.  "Hmmm... If thats the case, why not check on her tonight?  Do you know where she lives?  I'm sure I don't need to tell you, but she won't know until its time to lie down and think about her actions.  She could be drowning it in something else right now after all."
