... Your head truly seems empty at times, but I can appreciate the way you look at the world. Insults to humans aside. Many people would probably be happier if they could take a page out of your book.
[ HUGS, A SINGLE SIMPLE HUG HAS SO MUCH WEIGHT IN CSM JAN. A HUG MEANS SO MUCH. Devils don't understand a lot of simple human things, and they ridicule a majority of it, but sometimes, they want to experience it for themselves, too.
She blinks once as Rochalizo takes her hands, looking down at them then at him. ]
...It's nothing special. I just don't see anything wrong with having what you want, and being happy.
[ It's canonically one of the devils' biggest wishes... another's is to just have a friend. Their wishes are so....... (LOOKS AT HANDS AND CRIES IN DIRT) ]
And there's nothing wrong with that! [ Breaking out into a grin, though maybe a bit more contained and real than her usual. ] If you ask me, you should always get what you want. And if there's people stopping you, shove them aside.
It gets a little complicated when the people you want to protect are the same people you'd have to shove aside, in your example.
But in a sense, you're correct. I won't throw them out of my life, but I can at least choose to push aside whether or not I care what they think of me.
Mm, I'd still knock Denji over if I had to. He can't tell me what I can or can't do anyway, I do what I want.
[ Her smile, for a brief moment, does almost look a little sad. Or maybe not sad -- more like, just missing someone. But it's one of those: blink, and it wasn't more than just a trick of the light. ]
[ Honestly despite how she acts, she felt Rochalízo was lukewarm on her at best. Does this mean she bothered him despite feeling this way? Hell yeah. ]
... [ Idly doing a mini-swing of his hands, considering. ] Can I have another one?
[ I'm sorry OOCly that Rochalizo has to deal with this all the time. ICly though? Power is less taken aback this time and hugs back like a maybe perfectly-normal person. It's also furry week so just, enjoy those soft cat ears flicking against him I guess. ]
...I have decided, yes! [ LIKE, LITERALLY RIGHT NOW. She has decided. Though even in the short laugh, there's a bit of a way of speaking, like she does find it a tad strange herself. ]
It's warm.
[ Like when she first realised a stray cat's affections and bodily warmth weren't so bad, when she realised it didn't always have to be blood and carnage for it to feel nice. '...'Tis a strange feeling, indeed...' she had thought then. And she still thinks it strange, but she doesn't mind it anymore. ]
[ She idly pets his wing feathers while she's here... feathers soft... her attention span... but will let go eventually, though not without a pet to his head also. A lot of people have been doing this to her lately so it's her turn to return one. Kind of.
...She just grins! Classic her.But she doesn't know what to say. ]

he very stiffly gives her a hug]

Well, she's surprised for a minute but then again what did she expect anyway. She drops her arms a little bit... huh. ]
Silly human, if you just wanted a hug, you should've...

She gives him a headpat on the back of his head.
(For the record this is the first time anyone's hugged her ever, particularly of their own accord.) ]

[ Okay, she figures it was a weird thing to ask. She just lets go of his hands. ]
Well, was that all, human?

he sighs, before very awkwardly giving her another hug like someone who isn't used to this at all.]

Yay! This is nice.
