The light is smack behind his head, as usual. "You didn't really think I'd let you get away with it," Ryodan says.

Totally delusionary there.” “Good luck with that,” Ryodan says. “She doesn't beg to speak, or do anything else. You can lock her up, down, and sideways and it’s never going to happen.” I beam at him. I had no idea he thought so highly of me.
