JOYOUS DAY
Now you're just bein' cheeky.
[ ...Well, if Ginger's mood is a little improved, then mission accomplished? ]

Being cheeky's part of your cute charm, though.
I'm surprised you ain't dead yet if it's this easy to embarrass you.
[ He can practically hear the laugh in Day's voice. ]

That I'm living up to my duty to bringing serenity, I'd think.
[ It's not actually a very serious answer, but it probably stands out that he's using a word like "serenity" here? ]

[ Oh. Is that how he comes off, despite the fact he's here because people got hurt? ...He's not sure how to feel about that. ]
Huh. Maybe it's 'cause I'm chatting with a friend. [ And he's not saying this to be smooth or anything, it's just an observation that came to mind. ]

[ See, this is what he means about Ginger acting cute, damn. ]
You sound so surprised.
You sound so surprised.
I just don’t have a lot of friends.
[ One whole friend before arriving here. The rest were coworkers - and his parents. And granted, it’s Ginger’s own fault.
He doesn’t need anyone but Rum. ]
I didn’t think I wanted more. But - it’s so easy to talk to you, so this is nice. That, um, you want to be friends.

[ "I didn’t think I wanted more." gives Day pause, for the briefest of moments. To him, it sounds rather lonely, though perhaps he isn't one to talk when it's debatable whether he had many friends before he moved to the city either. ]
I think you're easy to talk to too. 'Course I want to be friends.

[ Stares at my NPC thread in the distance ]
Not yet, but I can tell they're watchin'. Some of the countries' dignitaries are evaluatin' us, I'm sure.

[ Soft: ]
Yeah.
[ Let’s be friends, Day.
Why the different attitude now? Ginger doesn’t really know. Maybe it’s because Rum’s not here and Ginger has nothing to be possessive of. And Ginger… he needs something. There’s an itch in him that - needs.
… Is it okay to let Day be a part of that? Maybe he should warn him… ]
But - you can’t take it back.
Yeah.

[ Day, who doesn't quite realise what exactly he's agreeing to: ]
I ain't plannin' on it.
[ Not of his own will, anyway. He still doesn't know what an angel is, but... Once all is said and done, time and distance will wear on, even if by some chance Ginger could remember him. ]

[ A pause, like he's trying to reconcile what he's seeing right now with what he knows about demons, and it's going...somewhere (nowhere). Ginger's so different from what he does know about demons back home; things so far outside the realm of mortal comprehension and sensibility that any meeting between the two tends to end in disaster. ]
...All I can say is you're pretty different from the demons back home?

Oh, I don't doubt that at all.
[ MOOD, DAY. ]
I guess we'll find out what their thoughts are in time. Hopefully we didn't mess 'em up too much.

Good, 'cause the ones back home ain't usually benign.
[ He is missing the point because he's not entirely sure what Ginger being a half-demon has to do with this. Now that Ginger's brought it up though, it starts to sink in that Ginger isn't the least bit mortal. That means...
...It's such a selfish thing of him to want to ask, but he still does. ]
...If we're friends, you won't forget me?
