In a heartbeat, she is appropriately contrite. Clearly they started out on the wrong hoof, and at the faint flicker of hope on the horizon, Shaytan is ready to adapt. Adapt and adopt.
To be fair, he brings up valid points. The laughing wasn’t nice, and she should apologize… but she won’t. I don’t think Shaytan’s ever apologized for anything in her life. That would require a significant amount of remorse… which is not the same as regret. Shay regrets some things: not being bolder and making a declaration of love for Straia, not learning how to fight, etc. Remorse would require her to be focused on her superego, which, hahaha, she may not even have. Instead, Shaytan going to choose to focus on the positive things (or rather, not negative things) about their first interaction and potential future relationship.That is more likely to get her what she wants - Brynmor.
“Oh no, I won’t laugh at you anymore. Now that you know. Besides, they all laugh at me too.” And wouldn’t that just make them the perfect pair? The two bottom points on the totem pole. banding together in god-only-knows-what. And then, like the child that she sometimes is, she says, “You could pretend to be on his team and then really be on mine.”
Hey, who knows? It could be fun.
