I wouldn't consider it a waste of time, really. But... I've never had many, um, friends. Or acquaintances. So I suppose it's not my place to talk. [Her fingers fiddle with fabric of her skirt and one of the many, many tulle flowers sewn onto the outer ruffles.]
Still... I'm sure I look suspicious now. Not everyone is going to approach this kindly. Maybe that's paranoid of me.
[Honestly, "guilt" is a totally different ballpark for demons like him. Demons help create the pleasures, the torments, the temptations, and humans fall for it. Humans can absolutely do stuff on their own, but in the end, they're just trapped by their own vices.]
Look, as long as you don't, like, act super shady, I think people won't care. There's actual terrorists here, for cryin' out loud. Unless you want to draw attention...

I want to think that's the case, of course. I really, really do. I always want to think the best of humanity. But in this case, I...
[She considers finishing her thought, only for her mouth to close in a thin line, shaking her head.]
I'm sorry.
When you think you have an answer, would you come talk to me again?

[What a strange lady. Mammon raises his shoulders in a large shrug.]
If we are really stickin' around for this stupid dinner party...yeah. I'll come talk to you later. For this...Blue Bird play of yours.

Thank you, Mammon.
I hope we see each other soon. I'll be waiting, okay?
Goodbye.
[With one last short nod of her head, she makes for the doorway, her steps a little lighter than they had been on arrival.]
