[ He definitely doesn't sound that upset about getting caught or told off by his brother. ]
I don't know, you got pretty close. Master thief Emerald Sustrai at your service. [ a last name that actually means "thief," funny enough. Her face lights up with a bright smile, as if she's introducing herself for the first time and actually a cheerful, peppy person. It's surprisingly well-acted. ] I specialize in jewelry and bank heists.
[ Okay, no, she rolls her eyes and shakes her head. ]
I've never actually done a heist, so that's a lie. But you're not wrong about the rest. I'll tell you if you want me to. [ She hesitates for a moment after saying that. ] I decided I wouldn't lie about things anymore, since I'm supposed to be putting it all in my past. Though that was because I actually thought I had a future, so you might be the last person I tell. I haven't decided yet.
[ Telling people makes her less dangerous, because they know what to expect. It's a handicap to make herself less of a threat, more normal. Without being able to see the future she did all that for, making herself more dangerous just in case she needs to be seems like a better option. She was miserable when she was dangerous too, though, so she just. Doesn't know what to do. ]
