"I- I hate this place."

"A humble person would say that there was probably a lesson here."

Stubbornness, of course, had always been a trait of his. Unwilling to admit it though he may be, Lucien is not all wrong when she speaks of desperate attempts to bring back the one they had lost, still hoping for that glimmer of a frustrating, endearing person taken too soon from this world. He has not spent time with Cree, but he imagines her feelings were akin to this, seeing Mollymauk walk into a room and being met with someone so different from Lucien. How different they could be, the souls sharing that body, is a mystery to be unraveled — truthfully, it doesn't matter as much to him as what it says of possibility. Lucien came back. Molly can come back, too.

Naturally, he cannot help but cling to possibility. Lucien can dismiss it all they like; Caleb hasn't given up yet. If not through talk, then surely by other means — but talk seems fine for the evening, exhausted as they all are. "I am not all that interesting," he replies with casual disregard. Plainly avoidant, of course, but there is little he wishes to share about himself. He is much more interested in learning more. "You will have to decide which is it, Lucien, if you wish to speak of my friend or not. You do not strike me as stupid — you know why we're here. Why we came all this way to meet — you."

For more reasons than one, now, but it should not be hard to make them believe it all went back to Molly, that there was little other reason for it all. Blue eyes do not flinch from all-consuming red, and Caleb does not back away even as Lucien leans forward. "The previous occupant of your body wanted nothing to do with you either. He was much more charming in his willful denial of what remained of his past, though."

" I may be able to guess the reason for your presence here but I know so little about you. Give me a reason why I should care about your predicament, or at least offer me some INSIGHT. Don't you think that is only fair? " They would certainly twist it into sounding fair. The last thing they were willing to do was accept defeat in this situation, against a damn wizard no less. Their arrogance never failed to anger Lucien. They had it all, and what did they do with all their power and money and ability? Turn around and mock those who had nothing. Widogast here was no different to Derogna. None of them DESERVED the power they had been given.
