[Curiouser and curiouser. His smile only broadens her own.]
Sounds like home sweet home to me, too. [Though there were caveats, and she wasn't allowed to do her dirty deeds anymore. Not like she'd want to, not in the way that's needed. She's no solider. Taking orders from anyone who wasn't Byakuya-sama was a no go, and that's a cold and emotionless gig. She was in it for love! Anyone who fell by her blades was near and dear to her heart, and a total hottie to boot. But living in a dog eat dog shithole? For the past three years that's very much been the case indeed.]
What happened to yours? Are you in a shady organization? On the run from the law? Or has humanity itself fallen to bits and you gotta duke it out for cans of beans?
[He seems too smartly dressed for the last one, but you never know.
As for the Horseman?]
Hmmm...Hard to say! Perhaps it's just a manifestation of mortal fears. Or a soul so old and so lost, all it remembers is the thrill of the hunt! Re-enacting the chase until the end of time. [Isn't that just romantic? She gives a giggle.] How the fuck should I know? You'd be better off asking Gloomy. She's the bookworm, not me.
[Though he probably doesn't know who that is. Still, if he wants to hear The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, only one half of her is gonna have the Coles Notes.]
