“Mark, you’re forbidden from sharing the secret with her.” You clarify before actually going ahead. “We don’t help people who don’t do their part.”
The Markgician gives Cow Girl a quick look without much reassurance, then nods at you.
“No wonder I hate this guy’s voice, he says a lot of shit I don’t like!” Cow Girl is appalled! “You gotta help me, man! I haven’t had an easy life.”
“It’s a lot to ask for sympathy after all you’ve put us through in just this conversation alone, never mind what you have actually done.” Emily scowls. “To call you shameless would be the tip of the iceberg.”
“Then don’t do it, duh.” Cow Girl crosses her arms. “I’ve never had someone be on my ass like you are. All you do is scold and scold me. I’m sick of it. But bark all you want, you can’t *actually* stop Mark from telling me those juicy secrets when he’s done helping ya. Just don’t be a bunch of brats and stiff him out of the deal. That’d be so meaaaan.”
“Huh?” The Markgician didn’t see this coming. “Are you trying to convince them to not trust me…?”
“Is that what it sounds like? I just wanna upset this stiff face.” Cow girl points at Emily. She doesn’t understand the consequences of her actions.
“B-But he gave me an offer I shouldn’t refuse.” The Markgician acts like a foreigner mafiosi.
“Whatever, we’ll continue being outlaws together! It hasn’t been that bad, has it?” Cow girl warmly smiles.
“...If I cut ties with her, would you ignore everything she has said?” The Markgician wants to save his ass.
“I’d be hurt if you had any chance to join ‘em. But you’re fucked!” Cow girl laughs.
“Sorry, Cowsly, you’re out of luck.” You adjust your glasses. “The offer stands. I’ll call you later.” Speaking of calling, you’re going to contact Neko to keep a tab on these two. Also, Vortexia to help you out here.
“Who the hell are you calling Cowsly?!” Cowsly is beyond offended.
“Thank you, I mean it!” The Markgician strokes his beard with amusement. “Good luck with your date!”
“What a couple of suckers. You really tricked them there, Mark.” Cowsly laughs mischievously as you two walk away.
“I-I wasn’t kidding. You’re on your own! I’m going back into hiding and waiting for the call.” The Markgician pats her on the shoulder and walks away all casually.
“Today’s plans done? What are we going to do? Hello?! Mark! Listen to me! Hey! HEY!!!” Cowsly chases after her former partner in crime. You have little to no interest on how this develops aside from praying for the Markgician’s safety.
