I'm not ready.

I never will be, but this is it. There is no more after today.

It's silly... I wanted to ask advice about Julian, but I don't need to.

Advice? He'll be fine. I know you care about him, I'll watch his back.

... Thanks. I haven't told him entirely how I feel yet.

Told him to back out and he refuses.

[He gives the kind of eyeroll that one might expect from a father who disapproves of the boy his little girl has bought home]

Yeah. I did notice he's a stubborn little bastard.

[And janie will sigh and fold her arms]

If I can't get him to give up, then I will hope he somehow finds strength.

Pff. What doesn't kill him might actually make a decent demon out of him.

...

I said that out loud, didn't I?

To me he's already a decent demon.

That's why I don't want to be forced to watch him get hurt.

Perfectly decent, all he needs is a fucking spine

You're lacking in a few things too.

[The last thing he wants is a fight. Not now. But Julian does seem to be a sore point with the demon]

Whatever. Look, I gotta be going.

Phoenix... [She rushes for a hug, fearing it's the last time she'll ever see him ]

[He holds her tight, pressing a kiss against the top of her head]

Squirt.

Wanker.

Shut up. Or I'll pull the 'Lord and Master' Thing on you. [He squeezes her again, and runs a hand over Janie's hair]
