VESPER
Vesper shakes his head slowly, like the whole thing’s just..pointless. He leans back against the stone well, one boot nudging a pebble near the edge while his fingers fish a sprig of peppermint bark from his pocket. He slips it between his teeth like a toothpick, chewing on it with lazy indifference. "Ain’t slut shamin’ anyone," he drawls around the peppermint, voice calm as still water. "You think I care how much you fuck around when it ain't me between your legs?" His gaze flicks toward her—sharp, pale, steady—before he rolls his eyes.
"But I’m a demigod, remember?" He taps two fingers lightly against his temple, the gesture subtle but unmistakable. "So just maybe I know a fuckin' bit more about it than you think I do." The implication hangs between them like smoke: that what he knew wasn't just based on a hunch or a rumour. That whatever web she’s been caught in, whatever shadows cling to her now, he’s seen it for himself, and not just with his eyes. Better she think it's some demigod mumbo-jumbo at his disposal rather than mere telepathy, but it all amounts to the same big old violet exclamation mark over her head.
