Um, Jeffy, what are you doing??? Essie had this super clever plan to get to kiss you again and not have to just run out of this closet and leave you for dead, but it was so you could both be vampires, and not like, actually talk about stuff as yourselves, because wow, that is completely terrifying???
It's not that Essie doesn't WANT to kiss Jeffy Key, because that split-second where their lips touched was super nice, or well, it probably would have been really nice if it wasn't like immediately over, but it had definitely made Essie want to barf in all the good ways and that had to be a sign of a good kiss, right???
In fact, Essie would really LIKE to kiss Jeffy Key, and here was Jeffy Key saying that he'd really like to kiss her too??? Or her character, Miss Devillington. But he was probably ACTUALLY talking about her??? It wasn't super clear, because that was a twist she really hadn't been expecting, and he'd definitely still called her Miss Devillington so, well, she could totally work with that???
"Ah, VELL, Mr. Key," Essie says in a voice way too loud for this closet and it's not like she's suddenly like a million times more nervous because Jeffy's just being Jeffy, it's just... Miss Devillington's hearing is going bad.
...And okay, she's also like really really scared of the idea of actually kissing Jeffy for real, because if she kisses him and he's just Jeffy, then what happens next?
Essie squirms. The floor isn't very comfortable. There's a bunch of coats right in her face. Wicked Miss Devillington should be saying something else and snatching another kiss from this unsuspecting young man, but... she doesn't. When Essie does speak again, she's just Essie. Awkward, scared, definitely not a rich vampire assassin.
