[Scene: Neffy's mansion during a divination with the Celestial Seeress Astraea.]
Astraea: They have made frequent references to someone they refer to as "Big Daddy", but he has yet to make any contact with them.
Neffy: "Big Daddy?" What is he? Their pimp?
Astraea: Unknown. I see no evidence that he actually exists within this dimension. From the way they speak of him, it appears he is something of a father figure, who adopted them with the intention of grooming them to assassinate The Greater Goddess Metalia. But again, their word is unreliable since it is impossible to sift the truth from their many falsehoods.
Beryl: What do they say about him in private? When they are certain they aren't being overhead?
Astraea: They spoke of him protecting them from a youma sent by Metalia to murder them when they were too young to use magic, but I see no evidence that she did any such thing.
Neffy: Likely because it happened in a different dimension. One that the light from our stars does not penetrate.
Beryl: Show us every reference they've ever made to this "Big Daddy" of theirs. And anything else that might provide a clue to their origins, for that matter.
[The ceiling shows a montage of clips-Dev and El standing outside the school agreeing on cover story that they are British transfer student raised by their father, with their mother dying in childbearing. Dev and El talking about the consequences of failing their mission. Dev insisting he wasn't related to Fiore, since he knew all his relative and he was certain Fiore wasn't one of them. Dev pointing out to El how they were taught combat and magic and fed tales of the Silver Crystal to encourage them to plot Metalia's demise...]
Jeddy: [ponders thoughtfully] You know...I'm really starting to agree with Kunzite...
Kunzite: About what?
Jeddy: About that sassy little redhead...she is kinda hot...I didn't see it at first, but she's really starting to grow on me...
[Kunzite chuckles and Beryl's jaw drops]
Beryl: What! That skinny little thing! She has no curves!
Jeddy: You're not looking in the same places I'm looking...check out that itty-bitty waist and those long shapely legs...and that sexy shimmy of hers...[sways his hips and shoulders in an exaggerated hula]..."Hey, baby hey,baby"...Man, I could spend a week's vacation in that thigh-gap of hers...
[Beryl looks like she's tasting bile]
Kunzite: Personally, I find this pair far more fetching as blondes.
Jeddy: Yes, well we all know what your type is! I like my women flame-haired and even sassier...[watches El berate her brother] ...man oh man, that is one hot little firecracker... I'm sure she could teach me a few fun games involving some handcuffs, a riding crop, whipped cream and a female nazi prison guard uniform.
[Beryl shakes her head from side to side]
Neffy: Could we stop ogling our enemies for a moment and focus on the true purpose of this divination? This scrying does take a toll on the caster.
Jeddy: Oh, right. Sorry.
Kunzite: Yes. Of course.
Beryl: Thank you!
[They continue to watch, laughing maliciously as they watch the twins destroy Mamoru Chiba's car with a baseball bat.]
Kunzite: I really do think it would be a waste not to at least try to coax them into joining us.
Neffy: I really doubt that is going to work.
Beryl: I agree. Their repeated goal is to murder Metalia. Even if they manage to earn our trust, they would likely do so as a pretense to get closer to killing her.
Kunzite: But we don't yet know their motives, and therefore we don't know the likelihood of a truce.
Jeddy: But they've said-
Kunzite: It doesn't matter what they've said. They lie constantly. Even to each other. They use their aliases, even in private.
Jeddy: Maybe those aren't aliases? Maybe those are their real names.
Kunzite: "Dev" and "El"? Those are aliases. They must know there is a chance they are being spied upon so they are watching what they say.
Neffy: The best lies contain a grain of truth... I've spent the most time of all us studying humans, and although these two are not humans, they are far more human-like than us in our behavior. The boy seems coldblooded, but the girl's face is as good as a polygraph. There are common themes that make her emotional- a mother giving up her life to save her children. A father adopting them when they were tiny and only pretending to love them. Add in the remarks about them being the only two of their kind, and being adopted after the boy had his skull crushed trying to protect his sister from their "father" and I think it's pretty easy to connect the dots here...some white lighter found this pair of orphaned hellspawn in some far off demon dimension, and rather than exterminate them, he raised them as his own, while brainwashed them into taking on a suicide mission against Metalia.
Jeddy: Except brainwashing little kids and sending them on suicide missions isn't the sort of thing White Lighters do. Didn't the boy say their father would take a belt to their bottoms if they failed to kill Metalia?
Beryl: Yes, but the girl confirmed he's never used corporal punishment in the past, which certainly does make him sound like a White Lighter. I think Nephrite might be onto something.
Jeddy: I'm telling you, Children's Crusades are not really the White Light style! I should know. I used to do things like that in my religious fanatic days, when I used to think I was a White Lighter, but I've come to realize that that sort of thing is its own special kind of evil.
Beryl: Not necessarily. These two are a totally alien race, so there might be something inherent in their nature that makes their eventual extermination inevitable. A White Lighter might exploit that as a justification to get some good out of them. At the very least.
