[she switches to voice because honestly? this will be better voiced.
she gives a sigh. wistful, the kind you might assume some lovesick person might do in a movie. it's dramatic because she can only imagine the face Vincent would make.]
You're right. I shouldn't tease my bestie so much.
I wasn't planning on telling you because it wasn't like you'd care. [Vincent wasn't a gossip. he just liked having information.] But maybe you'll find it useful. [mostly in the sense it would change how he might treat the other person. Maria doesn't think it matters much to Vander but Vincent likes to have all the information he can have for his plans.] It's Vander. Heather likes him, too. [and that was throwing a bone to Vander. might make Vincent a little less irritating.
[ Why hadn't he asked at the time? He can only suppose that it wouldn't lead anywhere too disastrous. Well, he supposes his thoughts became clouded with the rebuilding of the Order. A lot of supposes -- could it be that he just trusted Maria?
His face scrunches up at the thought. ]
Loving someone doesn't mean that you were right to trust them. [ He, at least, feels like giving her a sensible warning. ]
I know. Look at what I am. You really think I think love is gonna solve all the problems? [Mary had loved James and where did that get her?
but she was trying not to think too deeply about that. Maria had to keep reminding herself it wasn't fair to Vander to compare the two. he was not James.]
I've been around the same block enough times to know better, Vincent. I just meant you didn't even know he was the same person and he knew you knew me...but he kept his mouth shut about me. He isn't a bad guy to have on your side.
Guy taught me to throw a punch and how to swim. Has to count for something.

Is this you inviting me to gush about my new beau? You're being so generous and thoughtful. Are you a romantic deep down?
