"So," casually, without glancing up from his magazine, "what do you think of Nico anyway?" - super nosy angel mom :)

Well, considering Adrian’s… Nosiness CURIOSITY, this matter was bound to pop its head at some point. Better late than never, he supposes, and Nero allows himself to chew and swallow the bite of food in his mouth before he begins to speak.
‘ …SHE’S MY FRIEND. ’ No, she is more than just a friend. She’s more of a PARTNER to him, something quite similar to what Lady and Trish are to Dante… And yet, even that doesn’t begin to cover it appropriately. ‘ She… Helped me out the day dad took my arm, y’know. ’ A pause to take a sip from his drink, as well as laugh to himself at the thought alone. ‘ Apparently she tied up my arm with a wire to stop the bleedin’ and then BURNED THE WOUND with Red Queen. ’ A brief tilt of his head, which makes it look like Nero is trying to remember the rest of the story. ‘ Kyrie says she wouldn’t stop clinging onto my jacket when they were chillin’ in the waiting room. ’ That’s what he was trying to remember. His sister had entrusted him with that knowledge as a secret they would both take to their grave. They both know of Nico’s rage, after all.
However, Nero suddenly… Stops talking, looking like he was caught with his hand inside the cookie jar. He DID get caught with his hand in the cookie jar, actually, but he was caught by himself. He’s talking too much praise for Nico. So instead of talking about this any further, Nero simply feeds himself another bite of his burger. ‘ Why do YOU care so much ‘bout ‘er? ’ Spoken around his food. Unattractive, but he knows Adrian does not cares that much… Right now anyway.
