Then I guess we need to make sure he isn't getting himself tangled up in all this. It'll be bad enough trying to get the demon to give your soul back without Kal getting his taken away, too.
[he nods.] He means the world to me. And I'm sure Kon could say the same thing. Which is why I don't want him trying to do something that could potentially put his life at risk.
[he sighs.] Yeah, thanks. I just- the last thing I want anyone doing is fighting my battles. I don't want to see anyone try to take this into their own hands and end up trading their soul for mine. No way am I going to let that stand.
He might. [he bites his lower lip in slight worry.] And then it'll turn into a giant circle of attempting to get everyone's soul back. It doesn't help that we're on a tight time schedule either.
Maybe? [he shrugs.] I don't know. I think I wanted too at first. Just to keep it to the people who were there to witness the deal going down. But... but now I don't.... I mean, I still don't want everyone to know. But I'm more open to people I'm close with knowing.

[She looks over at Conner.]
He really means a lot to you and Kon, doesn't he?

I'm not letting you deal with this alone and I'm pretty sure Kon and Zee would have something to say about that.

We're all in this together now.

[Yikes, Kal.]
But that doesn't solve the problem at all. It just means we'll try to get his soul back instead of yours.

Should we keep an eye on hi--wait. What tight schedule?

You… but you didn’t say anything about a deadline when you told me about the deal last time!

Were you planning to keep it a secret until...it actually happened?

So I'm...one of those people now?

I—I’m glad you think you can trust me with it.

[She bites her lip. He's never put it that way before--knowing something only his teammates do.]

I want to know. I'm just surprised because, you know, you're really close to your teammates. I guess I didn't know I was... uh, anywhere close?
