Banshee-> Didn't I tell you? You can't convince humans with logic or efficiency.
Lilith> I knew that. Yes, I did know that. But still.
Banshee-> Was what your son said really that much of a shock?
Lilith> It was a shock. But it was also nice.
Banshee-> ?
Lilith> He said I went too far. Hee hee hee! Everyone is thinking that, but none of them will say it because they want a ticket! But he said it so easily!! Where else could I find a shock like that? Not even the head of the White House could say that while he lamented Air Force One's specs and begged for our help, but then it happens right there in my living room!!
Banshee-> You doting parent...no, it isn't that. I sense something more wicked here.
Lilith> What I am doing is overwhelmingly correct. But that correctness is exactly why no one has been able to make a rebuttal. Yes, not even you who I left in charge of 04.
Banshee-> Don't expect much from me. I'm no more than a crybaby.
Lilith> Oh, but he's the same. Nevertheless, Satori scolded me. Because he trusted the sense of justice in his heart.
Banshee-> Wow.
Lilith> Eh heh heh. Even I know that my actions are merely correct and might not be worth continuing. Satori is always there to shake my heart and make me ask the important questions: Should we really be doing this? Is there no other way of reaching the same result? He provides exactly the stimulation I need to rethink thinks. What more could I ask for?
Banshee-> Hmm. You really are a demon. Even if you are a parent as well.
Lilith> Of course I am. But the path toward defeating a great demon is a good way of letting someone grow.
Banshee-> And you also have an annoying habit of training up adventurers. ...But, y'know what?"
Lilith> What?
Banshee-> How about you actually be honest with yourself and let yourself cry? This is just silly.
