Isn't everything shitty with you?

I was trying to be nice here and play along, and this was how I was rewarded? Second and third thoughts about this whole exchange came fast. I mean, couldn't she have eased off a little?

"No, more like I wouldn't expect to hear Cruel Angel's Thesis in this setting, at all. So I figured there was a higher probability of me mishearing than a bunch of weebs revealing their power levels on a high-class cruise ship." I explained, biting back my complaints on the verbal abuse. I suppose breaking out of that portion of her personality was still yet a pipe dream.

Nonetheless, I was determined to one day. I'm the type of stubborn idiot that gets fired up when something tries to beat me down.

If you can imagine, I'm sure you understand how many times I came home a bloody mess from training.

I listened a little longer to the notes drifting through the air.

"But maybe I should have went with it in the first place..."

Denying it was getting very hard, now that I was back to paying attention.

"Tired?"

I'll be the first to admit it, I can be very slow on the uptake at times, and this wasn't an exception. Granted, there was the argument to be made for the abruptness and something-kinda-resembling-vagueness of her question, but...

If I was to make that argument, my window for it had already ceased just a moment later, as I noticed the nigh imperceptible flick upwards of her eyes. It seemed that despite the direction our conversation had just been going about it, I was going to have to engage in this song and dance with Gratia after all.

"Oh, I get it. I was just a little surprised for a moment. The song they're playing down there now sounded like one I know, but I'm probably wrong anyways."

...Then again, Eva always had been a bit more favorably received by the mainstream...

A few movie stars were pretty big fans of it, if I recalled correctly, but that could then again just be chalked up to them having off-the-wall interests in general.

Who knew?

Certainly not me.

I must have been hearing things.

I was hearing things, right?! There was no way that was a jazz rendition of Creul Angel's Thesis floating faintly from the deck up to this balcony! That couldn't be right! If Gratia wanted a reaction out of my ahoge, this surprise certainly had to be a candidate to start one, right?

Well, maybe. I was keeping myself decidedly neutral, thanks to the very real chance that I was indeed just hearing things, and not hearing a cleverly disguised reference to Eva from the jazz players on a luxury liner.

I mean, come on, people hide power levels for a reason, don't they? I've been pretty brazen in the past, but these people are playing for the upper-crust here.

There was no way. Just keep your AT Field up, Schwarz. It's nothing, you idiot.

Yeah, just hearing things.
