"What? You...you stole my weapon?" *She growls, struggling to sit up fully.* "Give it back to me, demon scum!"
*However, as she tries to move, Lute winces at the pain coming from her injured wing,* "Urgh...dammit, I can't even move properly. But I swear, once I'm better, I'll make you pay for what you've done!"

*She glares at Naoto, her golden eyes burning with hatred before finally speaking with a hint of begrudging respect.*
"Fine. I'll admit it. You saved my life, and now you have this leverage over me. What do you want, demon?" *She asks, her tone strangely clipped*
