Jade raises her eyebrow at him, slightly surprised he's not trying to talk her out of this. Anybody else would, but then again this usually isn't information she goes around telling everybody. She can't help but let out a bitter laugh when he tells her to go do it.

"I would if it were that simple. It's not. She's not human. She's a demon. Lucifer's second oldest child, Lilith. That's who I fight against. I've killed a bunch of her weaker underlings."

She waves a had dismissively. "I know what it means." She lets out a soft sigh before turning to face him. "Maybe because she's a huge bitch who goes around ordering everyone under her to kill anybody who gets in her way?"

Jade watches as DJ makes the hot chocolate mix, the eagerness showing on her face but otherwise she was waiting patiently. She intends to use the warmth of the mug to warm her hands back up again.

I've got a question.. Do your time powers work on magic anons???

Jade doesn't try to hide the excitement she feels when she hears the kettle whistle. Her eyes light up, the green of her eyes shining brightly.

She inhales the scent of chocolate in the air and lets out a contented sigh.
