“What?” her head still aches, and she pulls her knees closer to her chest in a pathetic attempt to distance herself from him. “To be... a demon?” Right. No, there is nothing right about this, she’s seen enough weird things, she is one of them, the weird things, but demons – this isn’t real. It would mean that there is a God, the Christian kind, and angels, and Hell, and if there is Hell, she is going there.
This is not what Morgana is used to believing in. This is not an idea she’d like to entertain either, and, truth be told, she’d rather laugh it off, get away, pretend she doesn’t believe him in the slightest. But his eyes. They aren’t like anything she’s seen before, captivating and terrifying at the same time – no, she’s seen eyes like these already. Those of snakes.
Fallen leaves stick to her palms. She’s made a habit out of it, it appears – waking up in the middle of the forest with a bleeding wound or a splitting headache, and a full realization that she should be dead. But she has to admit, she might have overreacted a little – it’s not every day someone claims to be a servant of Satan, and, frankly speaking, she isn’t sure this is still her world to begin with. In her world, there were no demons. Especially not the kind who never wanted to be one in the first place. Or the kind to lay it on a relative stranger.
And she always thought, assuming that demons existed, that they looked like beasts – horns and tails and everything. Crowley looks... human enough, apart from the eyes.
“Are you here to take me to Hell then?”
