My, you really know how to sell yourself, don't you?
[Said with a snicker-- okay, so maybe stealth wasn't his thing, but that didn't mean he couldn't be a useful pawn further down the line for something else?? He could afford to think a bit creatively. But then, it's possible their combined egos just aren't going to allow them to come to a clean agreement here.]
[So maybe it's time to just go back to fucking with him.]
But you know, maybe you're right! Perhaps I don't have a use for you after all. But you know...
[Is Duo ready for this because it's gonna happen quickly--]
[Mephisto's hands reach out and grab both of Duo's arms, pushing them down to his sides and holding them in place with a vice-like grip -- with an unnatural strength, by all means, he doesn't look like he should have.]
[And then he's lifting him up.]
[Lion King style. Up into the air and damn near over his head with those long-ass arms of him.]
[Completely effortlessly, with no sign of strength or even any actual effort being put in. But the feeling will be different from when he used his powers, given Duo will have the option of struggling as much as he wants. This is just how strong he is.]
You really are selling yourself short! Are you that adverse to working with me, Mäuschen? Because if so, you really should just say so instead of stringing me along like this!
