The boy's falling silent then, listening to what she says about Maul, solemn. There's an empathy that tugs at him; Maul may be a literal terror towards him, but Peter's not against trying to understand the guy. Despite everything, his heart is a soft thing. Maybe because he knows what it's like to come from a less-than-pleasant home life. )
That's... really good to hear, that he's been taking them. I know it can't be easy, learning new ways to handle stuff if violence is all you've ever known.
( He frowns softly for a few moments, before another thought trickles in, one he's been wondering for a long time. Ever since he met the man. )
Can I ask you something? Do you know if Maul is... some kind of demon?
no subject
He gets that a lot, though, actually. But no, not a demon. We HAVE demons here though, he's just not one of them.
His brother isn't either, by the way.
no subject
But, wow, that's.... unexpected. He's assumed from the start that Maul was some kind of demon. Peter sits there quietly stunned for a moment before looking back up at his video feed, blinking. )
Oh— Yeah, I've uh. I've met a few demons. ( :'D ) There seem to be... a lot of different kinds. He uh... actually seems really interested in one demon I'm pretty close to.
( ....Literally physically close to, but. :'D ) That's why I thought he might be one... well, apart from the whole. Horns deal.
no subject
Oh... uh... [She can probably GUESS why but...] Is he still trying to get close to the demon you're close to?
no subject
I think so. I think it's been awhile since they were around each other, but they seemed to form some kind of.... connection? And I don't see either of them letting it go.
( Peter gives a soft sigh, defeated. It feels like it's just a matter of time before Maul shows up again wanting to see Paimon, and he knows he can't stop that. )
no subject
I can talk to Maul, if you like? Try to see what's up with the relationship? [She wasn't about to tell Maul to stop being... friends, she guessed, but she could at least insist he stop trying to, very likely, USE the demon in question for his own benefit.]
no subject
The offer has him blinking again though, looking surprised — and immediately worried. )
Oh— I don't want you to have to do that just for me. It sounds like you've already got your hands full. ( It's so kind of her to offer to try and help, but he feels bad making it something else she has to deal with.
Though... it could actually.. really help? Someone who Maul actually trusts, talking to him about it? Peter hesitates, looking torn between denying help and accepting it. He's still not used to the latter. )
...Do you think there's a chance it might make him mad? I don't want to risk him getting angry at you or anything.
no subject
Maul and I have a unique relationship. He can get angry at me all he wants, and does, all the time. But he would never hurt me. He'll get huffy and then blow off steam and come back in an hour or so realizing I'm right.
So I'll talk to him, it might take me a bit, I can't just bring it up out of the blue. but don't worry, I promise I'll talk to him about his treatment of you.
no subject
If you're sure. I'll... definitely try to keep my uh, demon... friend away from him in the meantime.
( Part of him wonders if he should tell her the truth about this — that the demon is not a friend, but a part of him — but it's a lot to dump on someone who barely even knows him. And he's still... not sure how to say it, afraid.
So Peter's giving a small, but grateful smile. She's really helped, and he's incredibly thankful to her for that. )
Thank you, Usagi.
