[That doll... That most freakish doll ever. It was so cute and charming at first but then she had left it behind and it followed her... And keep talking to her. Heather didn't like it one bit. It scared her. That woman, Little Washu offered the bonfire idea but it was too far away and she really didn't want to spend that much time alone with it

Is there a problem, sweetie?

...sweetie, William is our superior at work. Including Eric's.
[The handkerchief is to be taken, not stared at.]
Then you simply do not possess the practiced skill of avoiding injury.

But he is not here....You are Grell?
[She blinks and takes the handkerchief and wraps her hand with it.]
Not my fault that I don't remember... [Perhaps she can ask Eric or Batman to teach her how to use it.]
Reply
No, he is not. Thankfully. [Pushes back a lock of red hair.] I am.
It would be best to relearn, then. This world is not safe for the innocent.

Why do you say that? (And yep, she is now in the company of the one that is on the top of to avoid list. No sudden movements.... No sudden movements...)
It shouldn't be hard to.
(Oh god, she is in so much trouble now AND THOSE TEETH! What to do and what if the other wants to eat her?!?! Ust stay calm, maybe he won't sense fear...)

She nods at the statement.] He can be, yes.
Our superior can be a bit stuffy most times. I cannot fault him for doing his job.
Do you have a name, sweetie?
Reply
Not can be, he is.
Does he enjoy it?
(And it is now that Sai will learn forever what not to call Grell.)
Its Heather, sir. (How can she sneak away especially before Eric finds out.)
Reply
...he isn't to everyone. You're lucky in that regard.
Does he enjoy his job? [That...is a very good question. Grell looks contemplative, and a bit somber, but shrugs.] Uncertain. He has worked rather hard to gain his position. Our line of work is rather difficult, so I can imagine how much that difficulty multiplies when managing others.
[Really? Sir? Ugh...]
...Ma'am, if you please.
[She walks over and examines the pieces of the doll, nodding softly.] Very nice work, Heather. Now, will you be going to that mall?
Reply
I have an idea as to why... [But not saying it to the wild animal.]
And you are saying that Eric doesn't work hard?
[She blinks at the correction and just goes to stare at Grell.... Just what part of that is female?]
Ah, yes si- I mean Ma'am! [She quickly flinches but watches Grell examine her work on the doll.... and then that question! She might be able to get away safe and sound.]
I will be! [And here, she goes to take a couple steps in the direction of the mall. Perfectly confident that she has managed to get away from the reaper.]

Oh, Eric works very hard! I would trust him to get any job done. [She's being sincere about that. They may spat, but Eric is a hard worker, and does his missions well.]
[What part of Grell is MALE, exactly?]
Good to hear! [Smiles] Be sure to show me the fruits of your trip, hmm~? [Grell wouldn't follow unless asked. She isn't that crazed.]
Reply
I am glad to hear that.
[Sai refuses to answer that on the grounds of fearing for her life.]
[She stops and tilts her head at her.] How should I get into contact with you?
[And now though... Something that has been on her mind since Grell isn't acting like one...]
Are you really a wild animal?
Reply
[...a wild animal...
BURSTS INTO LAUGHTER!]
Oh goodness! Where in the world did you hear that?!
Reply
I do have one.
[She blinks as the reaper bursts out laughing.]
From someone... [Nope! Not gonna mention Eric's name. Though.... She is still learning Stranger Danger and she hasn't behaved like a wild animal.... Yet.]
.... [She goes to adjust her sweater again and goes to mumble something under her breath.]

Darling, only in battle do I unleash my carnal inner being. I'm no different than most other humans under duress.
Reply
Duress? [What weird words are you speaking?]
.... Maybe you can help pick out some clothes.....

Ah...stress, in a sense. [The Queen's English.]
Oh~? Are you certain?
