Ruby wasn't sure she liked being compared to Azazel. She could see it sometimes sure but she didn't like to think about it. So she focused on Brady and the irony that she could still manage to appreciate. Even if he infuriated the hell out of her acting like he did. "You honestly think he has to allow me to do anything? Do you think that's what happened. Hell lost me because Sam said so?" she laughed in spite of the situation. "That's not what happened moron. Sam just opened my eyes is all, made me believe I could be more. The decision and everything that goes along with it. That was all me. And scary thing? I'm nothing special. I'm not anything hugely powerful. But it changed me. This feeling of love. It woke me up and I'm pretty sure it scares you all. Cause hey, what if it happened you?"
She wasn't gonna rise to the bait about Jess. There was no point. It wasn't going to get to her.
As for the fear. "Brady I don't care if they're afraid of me. I don't. Demons aren't idiots. They know me. I'm known. I was Azazel's right hand, they know I'm a witch and they know what I can do. So yeah there are people scared. But I don't want to know who they are anymore. I don't care who they fear. And y'know what? We're doing okay. We're winning what we can and we're doing better every day so think what you want about me and my 'crash and smolder'. I picked the right side." There was nothing to being feared. It wasn't all it was talked up to be by the demons. She was loved and that was better.
But she was pretty sure she understood Brady. She knew him better than most after all. And she was figuring he missed her. Not in a human way. Not out of love but out of what she'd taught him, the 'missed potential' in her. Same things Azazel had said, she could have been one of the best, she could have reached heights she couldn't have imagined. But she'd given it all up for the love of someone as flawed as Sam. They'd never understand it and it made her sad sometimes. But there it was.
As to what he was going to do? "Who know, taunt me more, try to tempt me back, try to outdo me. There are options here. I know how you work. You could always wait till I go back and send me a threatening note?"
