now isn't this awkward? he could have sworn—no, it's fine. sabo's got enough grace to be able to work with this. in a way, it's good to know that cain hasn't been made aware because it just gives him a better idea of what has and hasn't been wildly spread. ]
Oh...was it not you? My apologies.
[ no, sabo. it was not cain. it was the other redhead; the one that's dead. he'll just clear his throat and catch cain up to speed about things. not that sabo has much to work with since he hasn't been able to pin anything down with ish and only can go off with what he has overheard. ]
Anyway, there is someone that is important to him—his boss or some sort of goddess. I'm not certain if he's exaggerating her standing but it's clear that she has power over him.
[ ""power"". ]
Whenever she is brought up, he immediately becomes hostile and either becomes defensive or aggressive depending on the conversation. Whatever is going on here is likely to be influenced by her.
[ He's not going to say no to information, of course. Cain's surprise fades as he listens...and his brows furrow the deeper more Sabo talks.
Hmm. ]
That does change some things.
[ Cain thinks about his relationship with Akira, and Akira's relationship with the rest of his wizards. If any of them had a little toybox of interdimensional playthings and Akira told them to do one thing or another about it, they'd probably listen. ]
He may be enacting her will, or...if he gets defensive, maybe he's aware he's going against her will.

[ It could go either way.
After a breath, he nods. ]
I could go talk to him about her.
