Hex leaned back into the chair, and took a look across the street outside. People walked back and forth. Some were alone, but there were very few who didn't have at least one person with them. Friends. Lovers. Family.
"I consider family to be something rather important. And I very much doubt that you do no consider Eli your child." A good soldier follows their orders, but a good commander gives orders they know will be followed. What was Maleficent thinking? "That much should be rather obvious."
She turned her gaze towards the ceiling, the next topic clearly making her a little nervous. There's no real delicate way to put this, is there?
"The second reason, is well... I don't know much about how Maleficent, ah, drew you out? From what little I know of you people, you seem like somewhat... incomplete existences. You seem to know and understand more negative emotions rather well. But you're all rather sociopathic, in the same instance. No offense."
"Now, spending more time with Eli makes you empathize. You care about his happiness and welfare. Not something one generally expects out of a being createdly from the darkness of another. This makes you a more rounded out person. You get a little 'light', to balance out your darkness."
Hex drums her fingers on the table, looking back to Awiergan.
"Ah, but I'm drifting. The point is, that being with Eli probably affects you in such a way, that you become a more psychologically 'normal' person." She shrugs, absently. "Probably anyway. And for a given value of 'normal'."
