[ oh, well. wishes really do come true. cinder gives her a look that says "i told you so" but stays perfectly still and doesn't even move the slightest inch. ]
Are you okay?
[ like a true villianess, she idly wonders if she can draw out the pain of ruby's choking and suffocating by playing "let's see how long cinder can prolong performing the heimlich". ]
[ no. she won't. that privilege of "ruby's defeat" has already been reserved by someone else. although it would have been amusing if the struggle lasted a lot longer.
20 seconds is barely a watchable youtube clip. ]
No, I've kind of grown out of sweets. I like my treats to be a little... hot these days.
[ but does she mean spicy?? as usual cinder's timing is great and some waiter who's basically serving a canape with whole chili peppers walk by and cinder picks one up for ruby. ]
Want to try? It should go well with the chocolates you just had. [ never minding the fact that she just choked on said chocolate. ]
[ cinder pauses. considers her response. like yes, child. you grow out of things like sweets and superheroes. although cinder doesn't realize that in certain communities, that would make her the anomaly. ]
Nothing is forever.

[GASP... sorry, she's distracted again, staring at Cinder in what is clear and absolute horror.]
That can happen?
[Even as she accepts the chili pepper.
But.
