[She frowns, leaning in to get a better look at Lilith. Her favorite little siren certainly doesn't seem very well-rested or happy, which simply won't do.]
I can't stop him, but I can try to get to you first tonight. Will that be acceptable?
[Delight considers the question, pursing her lips a little in thought.]
Yes- but also, um. No. [There's a slight pause, while she figures out how to phrase it.]
I think we're about the same speed... maybe I am a little slower... [She hadn't actually considered that before. But!] It just depends on who we get first, I think.
As for the imbalance- well. Coming back from the dead doesn't exactly put me at my best. Fear never had that problem.

[Lilith sincerely hopes that all the partying and firefly indulging has won Delight's favor-- even a little bit.]
If there's no hangover involved, that sounds like a pretty solid deal to me.

[Lilith is right about one thing though: Delight definitely likes her.]
No hangover for dreams, Lilly! I'll take care of you, okay?

Is there a reason you're not quicker than him with the dreams-- some kind of power imbalance there?

Yes- but also, um. No. [There's a slight pause, while she figures out how to phrase it.]

And he and Hope are the only ones who didn't get killed by, uh, whatever killed you, right?

[She shrugs, not quite catching onto Lilith's curiosity yet.]

[There's a pause, and Delight glances off, weighing something on her mind for a moment more, before speaking again.]
If he died, we'd all be doomed. So, making sure he lived was a priority of ours.
video;
Doomed to... what? What happens to this place if you all die?
video;
[She shrugs weightily.]
As far as this place goes... well, if we died now then the rest of you probably wouldn't live very long.
[Delight looks up, back toward Lilith on the video.]
I don't really like thinking about it.

[Hey, at least she's gotten something. Lilith manages a smile.]
Thanks for filling me in.

[She returns the smile, shrugging up her shoulders a little.]
Let me know if you need anything else!
