tonight we're taking over, no one's getting out

Yes, exactly that! Better to force them on my path than end up with broken strings.

[...Oh. She didn't expect him to just actually say it but--

...

Jacinthe actually looks a little struck for a moment before her eyes sparkle just the tiniest bit, and she laughs and it's--a little startled, but absolutely warm and delighted and she looks surprisingly jazzed about that?]

I'm--delighted to hear that, Corbeau! [Friends!!! Genuinely, even!!!] I'm happy to know that with certainty! People are so very confusing to me even on a good day that it can be hard to tell!

Thank you. ...I should probably let you get back to your work now, shouldn't I?

[She looks so damn happy about it that he can't help but feel a little bad. If he'd realized it'd mean this much to her, he could've just told her sooner...]

I do have some things to square away before I retire for the night, but you're free to visit whenever you'd like.

[Scolipede gives Jacinthe a last (gentle) headbutt of thanks as well.]

Goodnight, Jacinthe. I'll see you later.

[she's basically going to be the equivalent of this meme for the rest of ever--

But oh, let her give Scolipede a little affection first before she bounds off the happiest she's been in a fair while--]

Believe me, I shall--what are friends for, you know? Goodnight Corbeau, goodnight Scolipede! I shall see you both again soon!

[And Jacinthe will retire to her quarters the most jazzed she's ever been in a while!!!]
