Still no comments or directive on the other side, that means that she should simply just trust her gut and deal with the consequences later. While she appreciates her relative freedom compared to other heroes on the other hand, the pressure to not mess up her image is getting close to her. Regardless, Eplis kept her face in the game as she counted the minutes that had passed. Considering the average response times in the city, she only needs to hold for one or two more minutes before the ambulance arrives.

So the plan remains the same, hold her ground, keep the mouth running and hope for the best.

“I’m not asking you to care. Most talents don’t,” Amaris started without much intonation. The “little stuff” was the job of their agents and management, as far as most talents were concerned. She knew that to the point of revulsion, and yet acknowledging it still left her bitter. “But I’d rather the media run ‘the altruistic Maiden of Hope can even get the standoffish Moon Arrow to care' than risk their investors trying to smear the driver. Plus, you’ll get follow-up interviews instead of a one-and-done and our agencies get collaboration avenues for the future.”

“Work with me or don’t. I'll do what I need to.”

Even if the Moon Arrow marching towards here seems like she is anticipating the worst.

[color=pink][b]"Don't you think this thing is getting a bit silly?"[/b][/color] The Maiden spoke in a bit of a wary tune as she looked around her, seriously where are the sirens?!

[color=pink][b]"There are a lot of traffic incidents that occur in this city and GAG is a large company in the car market."[/b][/color] she pointed out trying to channel the spirit of her brother inside of her, that statement is true even if said company is on a decline.

[color=pink][b]"So it would be common sense to say that a lot of their cars were on the road and these cars get into an accident sometimes, especially the older models. So what's with this incident that they seemed so gung-ho to cover up!"[/b][/color] She spoke not just to her senior but to whoever is listening or watching their conversation. 

There was also the fact that Elpis believed that the driver is not entirely blameless, the fact that he forgot to remove his seatbelt before jumping tells her that he wasn't experienced on the road and probably made some mistakes on his own side. Not that she is going to say it aloud right now.

[color=pink][b]"Do they really need to make a cover up that might blow up if someone finds out or blew the whistle rather than I don’t know let the scene play out as one of today's many car accidents? Is the effort hiding this incident really worth it!”[/b][/color] Elpis let out a sigh before realizing that she might have spoken too much.

[color=pink][b]“Sorry for the outburst but I really cannot see the logic of hounding a man who is already in an unfortunate situation.”[/b][/color] Elpis spoke to Moon Arrow using the comms, her voice were a little weak, a little tired.

[color=pink][b]“But I’m not lying about my injury so if you still want to go ahead I won’t fight back but I think I bought enough time.”[/b][/color]

The Moon Arrow would feel a small laughter on the other side by the end and when asked Elpis will admit she wasn't sure why she's laughing that time.
