Cordelia can't help herself.
He's hilarious, he is. Then again, he's right - she doesn't know his master. "Oh how I wish I could believe that humans can be so kind." She's envious, of course she is, but she makes a point not to let that show, of all things.
"You think you're the only one who gets sent back? I get sent back all the time, but I'm under no delusions that my master does it because he - god forbid - cares about me. We're no use if we're exhausted, tired, and unable to perform magic." Every word is supposed to be a knife through his heart, but oddly enough it sends the feeling right to her. How nice it would be if Lysander cared for her. She got unlucky this draw, she supposed, but she still distrusts humans for bringing her to this toxic land.

"It's not my fault that your master treats you like garbage. It doesn't mean that they're all like that!" He exclaims, flinging out his arm as he talks with his whole body. He's so animated, full of emotion right now, his heart aching there in his chest.

He was just... ugh! Cordelia fought to urge to scream and attract more attention right now. Maybe she knew deep down that she was wrong, but she was in the middle of a fight and she wasn't just going to give up like that. "Yeah because I'm sure your master doesn't use you for anything at all!"
She detests being used, but that was their fate as djinn, anyways. But anything is better than being in denial like he is.

He's already on the verge of screaming, himself. She talks as if he's treated as an object, but he's not.
"I'm his protector," he replies, getting up in her face. "I keep him out of harms way, but he doesn't throw me away when he's done with me. I mean something to him!"
A cruel smile pulls at his plump lips, a dangerous glow to his pretty eyes.
"Such a shame that you apparently don't mean anything to your master. Tossed like a used rag."

"You know what?!" The words come flying out of her even though she's not exactly sure what. She's not sure what to say, but she's so angry and full of rage and all she wants to do is punch him, wipe that god damn smile off his face once and for all.
"You'll see one day! You'll see how he'll abandon you. Humans are fickle creatures." She's not sure what else to say, because he has a point. She'd only known her master and no other. She just assumes that he's just like any other.
Cordelia's fuming and her arms are across her chest and she just wants to turn into a ball of fire and burn but that's rude and at least she hasn't lost control to that point, yet.

"You're so deluded by your... your..." He flips her skirt, frowning at her. "Your frills and curls." He flips her hair with his fingertips.
Such a child, a young djinn.
"Numb and depressed. If you tried to look at things from a different perspective, maybe you'd be a little happier and less cynical."
He growls.

Frills and curls. He's got the audacity to make fun of her appearance now? She's displeased and smacks his hand away from her. She managed to growl, positively feral. "Don't touch me."
He's right, after all. She knows very little, and she doesn't consider anything else. She can't even counter him on that, not really.
"Yeah, well, it's a little hard when I'm stuck with him all the time. I wish you'd have been contracted under him, then you'd understand." Cordelia's still a little angry, but her voice has simmered down just an inch.

The answer is so obvious.
"Don't be around him so often. Take your time when responding to his calls. Don't be his maid, Cordelia. You're not one. You're a demon. Strong and dangerous."
He doesn't particularly like her, but he can see when he needs to put his feelings aside and his honest input is needed
"Then, look on the bright side. If you end up being a fickle creature, he'll just send you back to the Other Place. Because if he's that awful, what's a disobedient djinn to a man like that?"

The answer was obvious, and that was what she was doing now. But her master was just... just ugh. He'd call for her at the worst times, and then she'd have to spend so much time with him, it was ridiculous. For the tiniest little things. As if he couldn't do them on his own.
"It's not that easy..." It's because her master is so easily angered. Yet he still finds it all too amusing when she went out of her way to make things a living hell for him (not that she ever seemed to succeed, of course). There is some kindness in Xavi's voice, she recognizes it from before the argument, and Cordelia doesn't hate him as much.

It is a shame, really, that a master could be so damned awful. "Says a lot when the master out-demon's a demon, huh?"
His hands shove into his pockets and he lightly nudges the tip of his shoe into the ground, pushing at the floor. "Okay look."
Xavi turns his gaze up, glancing at the girl.
"I still don't like you, okay? You're like... You're still annoying." He rolls his eyes, glancing to the side. "But if you need someone to hang out with. You know, when your master is being a douche or whatever. You can hang with me if you want to."
He shrugs, but looks over at Cordelia once more.

She looked up.
As infuriating, maddening, downright awful this jerk was, Cordelia can't help but feel a little... touched? At his offer. Don't get her wrong, Cordelia still didn't like him, not at all, but when he was offering something to help her out of this situation, well.
She knew better than to turn down an offer purely beneficial to her. Xavi wasn't a bad guy... except when he was being a meanie, a jerk, an idiot... the list goes on really. "Really? You'd do that?"

He supposes...
"Yeah, I'd do that," he replies as he looks over at her. "I mean... I get that not all humans are great. And the bad ones should be put in their place... So why be around the bad ones? If you have to be drained, at least be around someone who isn't going to make the experience worse..."
Xavi is a softy anyway, even if he does act bratty.
"So yeah, you can hang with me."

It was awfully sweet of him to offer this. She couldn't, for the life of her, think of any reason that would benefit him, but at least he was being nice about it. Especially when it came to the fact that she was annoying (she could say the same for him, too). At least he was being reasonable about this all.
"Thanks. You're not so bad after all."

He shrugs again, kicking the floor with his foot once more.
"Mmgh," he noises, glancing down to watch his sneakers scrape the ground beneath him. "Yeah... you're not so bad yourself, I guess."

The conversation's died off now, and Cordelia doesn't bother to continue it. As much as she hates it, she knows that her master will be calling her soon. "Thanks, again. For the offer."
It seems awkward, after their rather explosive fight. But she really is thankful for it. "I'll be going now, see you around."
