[Well, well. At some point, Diavolo let someone else get close enough to have a kid with them. Atem has to wonder -- was it the relationship that went bad, and left Diavolo so unwilling to be perceived? But that's a question Trish might not know...
He grins, too, in shared mirth at the idea of Diavolo being too jumpy to sleep with anyone. It's gratifying to hear Trish laugh like that....Atem's not sure he has, before. She's so serious, wound so tight almost all of the time, and he's going to remember how her laughter echoes off the garden walls. A good memory.
He sobers too, though, when she talks about how her father wants her dead. It could be teenage angst -- my dad hates me!! -- but also, she turned pretty serious when she started talking about it. Hard to tell if it's exaggeration.]
What makes you say that...?
[Diavolo must have done something...does it have something to do with the gang? An unwillingness to follow in her father's footsteps, a decision that she's not worth keeping alive if she's not useful, or just a fight over it? Anger at her friendship with Giorno is a possibility, too. There's too many unknowns, so, he asks.
It's pretty awful, if Diavolo really does want Trish dead...but why would he?]
