"I'm not certain what else you could call strapping to someone to a chair," A vague gesture: Yes, yes, let's skip the sex jokes. "Though I admit to wondering why you wandered in."

By cocks his head to the side, genuinely curious.

"Have I given you cause to crave revenge against me?"

He seems neither repentant nor horrified at the thought - just interested.

"Maker, you're not that much of a prick."

Well.

[bouchonne]

"Well, you don't know me that well," By replies, obnoxiously, grinning. Then he offers Isaac a shrug.

"Well, I suppose the key question is whether or not you have sympathy for the Venatori."

[wythersake]

"If I did, I'd have gone already."

Not the most inspiring promise of devotion. Five years with the Inquisition, with Riftwatch, have granted occasion to hand them a Head.

[bouchonne]

"Really?" He asks that easily, casually. Nonjudgmentally. "Even though they're focused on the rights of mages? No sympathy at all?"

"An empty hand does not endear one to a fist."

[bouchonne]

"That's not remotely true," By laughs in response. "It's when I've felt most helpless that I've loved dangerous men the most. Lay me low, and I daydream of those who'll crush the villains who did it."
