Chapter Text
"Ack! Man, of all times, crime really doesn't sleep does it. "
'Duty calls I presume? '
"Sadly and annoyingly yes, stupid petty crimes that aren't worth my time. "
'You should perhaps finish up the call. '
"We were just getting into it! What a pity, tch. "
'I can wait. '
"You can wait? That's new coming from you, don't you have some corruption or something to destroy? "
'Perhaps, I can make more time momentarily. '
"Heh, well I can't pass up this opportunity! This is a one in a lifetime chance for an uptight guy like you to do! "
"I'll try to finish up as fast as I can, don't you dare go anywhere you hear me?! "

"(Is it normal for a mortal heart to flutter the way it did when I heard you utter those words to me?) "
"(It felt like that saying, 'butterflies in my stomach', whatever that even means.) "
"(A few little words shouldn't have had any effect on a demigod like me, I am better than that, than this as a whole.) "
"(Maybe I am a delusional being, thinking you're doing this for me instead of for yourself.) "
"(But is it so bad to have hope that maybe the demigod you've made soft had done the same for you?) "
"(Maybe I've lost my damn stupid mind after all.) "
