[ A demon genuinely appealing to a human scholar for anything sounds...... fake as hell. Also what happened to not being asked to do menial chores?? Raph?? Wanting him to do a fetch quest on friend Gale? ]
And even if I were able to promise this on his behalf, we both know that I would trust his time to you last.
[ It only complicates things, for Raphael to approach Godfrey instead, knowing fully that he would not come along easily. Schemes and plots, exactly what he expected.
But that's the crux of this - he expects this sort of thing. He knows devils and their machinations. Gale, meanwhile, thinks he has never met one smarter than himself - that there could be no card Raphael holds that he has not seen, that is not within his reach. It would be he of all of his new companions who would think he could outsmart a devil.
So trust that it kills him to write this: ] So long as it is within my control, you will have my time, or you will have none at all.
