Skye walks in. She still has her crutch, but she seems to be relying on it less. She approaches the bar and sits at a stool. Her eyes glance up at the sign on the wall curiously.

She nods in acknowledgement to Akeno, but her attention is focused on Loot’s comment. “What’s that supposed to mean?”
-
... Well, you still seem pretty tore up about your adoptive brother, still struggling with a decision...
-
She leans in and lowers her tone. “I’m—I’m just going to be honest with you, Loot. I don’t want you trying to convince me I need to kill him anymore.”
-
... Oh, so you've made your decision then? I see, I was simply trying to force you to pick one, even though I may disagree, at least you've made up your mind...
-
She returns to her original position on her stool and crosses her arms. “Well, it was [i]very[/i] clear which path [i]you[/i] preferred. I’m pretty sure a decision was already made, but you made me question it. I can’t tell you how many times I wondered if not killing Errol is what I should do.”
-
... Hmm, well it seems you've thought it out, which I appreciate at least, so what's your plans now?...
-
She stuffs a French fry in her mouth. “No offense, but why do you want to know?”
-
... I'm just curious is all, I like to hear interesting things... *he gives a wry smile* *Akeno grabs his left hand and rests it on her head, he begins to stroke her hair and ears*
-
“I’m... not totally sure I want to tell you.”
-
... Ohh... *he nods his head* ... I see, very judicious of you, I'm impressed...
-
She doesn’t reply and munches on another French fry.
-
... Well then I guess since we can't discuss my particular favorite topic at the moment, do you have any slightly prying questions to ask me?...
-
“Not prying, no. I don’t like to stick myself in other people’s affairs when I don’t need to.”
-
... Going for a passive aggressive approach I see...
-
Her eyes widen for a brief second, and she turns away to fully face her food. She seems a little embarrassed.
-
... No need to be so embarrassed, everyone has different approaches...
-
“I’m just trying not to be rude. Even to you.” She suddenly reaches up to pinch the bridge of her nose.
-
... Well I'd like to know what [i]I[/i] did to cause such offense...
-
“Again, it’s not exactly easy to connect with someone whose first piece of advice is killing your own brother. Plus you only seem to be concerned with your own entertainment.” She pauses. “I’m only being honest.”
-
... Good, good, honesty is always good, besides, lying to a devil doesn't really seem wise. But yes, you would be correct in that, the concept of right and wrong seems silly to me, so rather I live for the thrill of it...
-
Skye looks at Loot skeptically. “‘Honesty is always good’, then ‘the concept of right and wrong is silly to me’. That... doesn’t make sense.”
-
... No of course not, you see, I personally prefer it over trying to dig through lies, I do that enough with the 7, besides, humans aren't as good at it, that's what I intended by the word good...
-
“Okay, whatever.”
-
... Oh well, it's time we make our departure, hope to see you again soon. Toodles!... *Loot waves and walks out the door*
-
“Bye,” she replies, then continues to eat her food silently.
