"So, how did Daniella end up working for you and why is she crossdressing as a guy?" Tisha asked again the question that had almost caused her death, but this time there was no exaggerated reaction to accompany it.

"Hmmm…" Davies hummed, seemingly in thought.

"Well… Daniella works for me because I pay her to…"

"If you want to know her reasons or the story behind all of that, or why she is cross-dressing as a man, you'll have to ask her yourself," Davies finally replied, deflecting the situation from him like the professional liar he was.

He couldn't tell her the truth after all, also Daniel… or Daniella had a rather interesting identity that he would rather keep secret.

Daniella was a pawn he had coincidentally managed to get his hands upon by nothing but chance. 

She had been a little orphan girl who was hated by the caretaker of the orphanage for some reason that he had never bothered to find out, especially as the caretaker was now dead.

The caretaker had purposefully maltreated Daniella and treated her a lot worse than the other children, abusing her physically and mentally in ways that were difficult for even hard-hearted criminals to cope with, but the caretaker made sure to always heal her body, after abusing her to make sure that no one found out about his callous deeds.

Daniella at that time didn't know and had been too young to understand why she was going through such things, but that did not stop the caretaker from abusing her. She had grown to be cold to the world and to everyone that she met, without the slightest amount of goodwill towards anyone. 

This was why she had probably paid no attention to the bubbly child who was always trying to talk to her at every opportunity.

Everything in her life was dull and gray… at least until she had tried to run away one day and had run into a white-haired kid who looked at her with eyes that carried even more coldness than hers, but that was a story for another day.

Tisha didn't reject Davies's offer for her to ask Daniella herself as she was still very interested in her for obvious reasons. 

This was also one of the reasons why Davies had deflected the issue to Daniella, he would tell Daniella to put off on answering Tisha's question, or better still, tell her an outrightly outrageous story, Tisha wouldn't be able to know whether it was the truth or not anyway.

But before that, "Hey Tisha," he called.

"Hmmm?" Tisha looked at him curiously, wondering why she was called.

"You can't tell anybody about Daniel being Daniella, it'll be our secret," Davies said in a mysterious tone.

"Our secret, like the two of us?" Tisha asked immediately, her eyes sparkling with delight, not even bothering to think about why Davies wanted to keep such a thing secret.

"Not just the two of us, silly,"

"Daniella as well," Davies replied in a laughing tone, clarifying things for Tisha who was feeling all happy about sharing a secret with people she liked.

[She kinda reminds me of Harley Quinn but with fewer screws knocked loose in her head and a lot more thoughtlessness]

[Just slap on a bit of pink and blue dye and boom, you've gotten yourself a Harley Quinn] Miya added cheerily while laughing a little at Tisha's over-enthusiasm and over-bubbly attitude.

'Does that make me the Joker?' Davies asked laughingly, playing along with her thoughts.

[Yeah… only you don't resort to physical abuse, and you haven't slept with her…]

[... Yet] Miya replied, keeping the joke going.

'...' Davies did not reply to her words and continued driving.

'It is quite lucky that she is the way she is,'

[If you mean absolutely thoughtless, and madly in love with you for absolutely no understandable reason, then yes, we're lucky that she is the way she is] Miya added with a sarcastic tone.

'Yeah, this way, we can resort to peaceful situations and I don't have to use other… disturbing methods to force her to comply,'

'Even though I am a villain, I still prefer peaceful solutions to problems,' Davies said shamelessly, almost causing Miya to cough up blood in disbelief, luckily for her, she didn't have any blood to cough up.

[Yeah right] Miya snorted.

'What? You don't believe me?' Davies asked with a mock-hurt tone, making it seem like he was hurt by her lack of trust in his words.

[Yes, I absolutely do not believe you, and to prove how I know that you are lying, solve this riddle]

'Ok, try me,' Davies immediately stood up to the challenge.

[You are given two apples to share equally between three boys. How can you do this with only one stroke of the knife?] Miya told Davies the riddle.

'There is a simple and peaceful solution to this riddle,' Davies began confidently.

[Oh… please, do tell] Miya commented.

'Decapacitate one of the boys with one stroke of the knife and give the two boys left an apple each,'

'See, a very easy and peaceful solution,' Davies said with confidence.

[...] Even though it was the answer Miya was expecting from him, she was still stunned into silence at the confidence with which he had spoken of his "peaceful solution".

[What exactly does a peaceful solution mean to you?] Miya asked hesitantly.

'I'll say, one where I don't have to commit mass genocide, torture, or blackmail somebody,' Davies listed out.

[What a fucking surprise]

[PEACEFUL SOLUTION MY ASS!!!]

[You were supposed to cut a third of the two apples each in one stroke and then give out the equal parts to the boys, but you instead decided to kill one of them!]

[How the hell is that peaceful!?] Miya raved at him.

'... I gave a peaceful solution and not a boring solution,'

'Where's the fun in your solution?' Davies asked quizzically as if he couldn't understand her way of thinking.

[There is not supposed to be fun in a peaceful solution!] Miya coughed up phantom blood in anger.
