"That's the stupidest thing you've said this week, Moxxie." He scoffed, clearly not thrilled with the idea.
The short imp knew if he insisted he might get in trouble with his boss, but he knew despite that, it was the right thing to do. Clearing his throat, he began to voice his reasoning, his tone hesitant but determined.
"Look, Blitzø," Moxxie began, his voice soft but steady. "I know she's a sinner, but she's lost, just like I were before I joined the I.M.P.. She hasn't got a place to go, and... well, I just think we could show her some kindness."
Blitzø listened with growing impatience, his arms crossed tightly over his chest as he regarded Moxxie with a skeptical glare. "Kindness, Moxxie? This isn't a charity. We've got a business to run, and we can't afford to be taking in every lost pup that crosses our path," He retorted, his tone sharp and dismissive.
[Name], sensing the tension between the two demons, shifted uncomfortably, feeling like an outsider in their cryptic exchange. The conversation was due to her, but she wasn't sure if she should interfere, so she simply backed up a bit.
Moxxie's resolve wavered under Blitzø's scrutiny, but he pressed on, his voice tinged with desperation. "I know, but.. she's different. She's not like the other sinners we've encountered, I know it... She's alone, sir. Can't bring myself to simply give her my back." He shook his head, doing such a thing would go against his own boundaries.
"Holy shit, Mox.." Blitzø groaned, rubbing his temples. "Can't you just not be nice for once?" He groaned annoyed. " Alone or not, we can't let sentimentality cloud our judgment. This is Hell, and she's a sinner. There's no more talk or it." He countered, his voice tinged with resignation.
"We work everyday with sinners and now you're worri-"
Before Moxxie finished up his sentence, [Name] interjected softly, "It's okay, Moxxie. Thanks.. I understand it. I'll try to find a job or.. I dunno, whatever. I don't even know what's in this city.." She chuckled awkwardly.
