The Devil's face was turning dark. He had enough of arrogant assholes telling him they knew better than him. Of looking down on him for not fitting into their little molds and what they think is the "right" way. He had gotten plenty of that today from that stupid teacher, and this was supposed to be taking his mind off that, and what happens?
In comes Sir Monster Hunter (apparently) to berate him because, what, the Department of Menace Eradication gave them bad information and they acted on it? Or just because to the "expert" here, there should only ever be one way to do shit and any other way was "wrong" and he was stupid for ever straying from what the "right" way was?
Not bad enough Tailor wanted to be some stupid social climbing twit and used people like Maven to do it, now they had to step into Devil's territory? This was his territory, no matter what the Tailor claimed; he could guarantee that he had been doing this longer than Tailor, and he was not going to let Tailor tell him otherwise.
He wasn't going to take this shit.
Not from Tailor. Not from the Academic. Not from the Brass Embassy.
But as Devil was opening their mouth to unleash a tirade onto the Tailor-
"Stop!" Maven cut him off, still by Piper's side as she examined their shoulder. She had removed her toxinbane brooch and was using the panacea inside to stave off any effects of the bite, "Tailor is right, lets just collect what we have, report to the Department that the infestation was bigger than they listed, and head home." She turned to Piper, "Piper, you should come with us. You've been bit, the panacea should help but I can monitor you for awhile to make sure and help with the rest of your wounds. You can have dinner with us while I do."
