[ Dante's preoccupation with humanity is something that Vergil can appreciate on a certain level. He was, after all, doing what he could to secure mankind's freedom from the demons. (Sure, vengeance factored into it, but for Vergil it was more than just personal. There was the principle behind it as well, the idea that demons should fall and the third race should rise and, with its ascension, should secure the safety of humanity.)
But wanting to coddle humanity is not the same thing as wanting to be human. Vergil knows he's something different (something better). If only he could make Dante see the same thing. ]
You said it yourself, some people can simply sense things. Even if she's human, it doesn't mean she's completely powerless. Kat, for example.
[ A beat. ]
If she knew for certain, she wouldn't have asked, brother. But I can follow up on it, if you want.
[ Another beat, longer. Vergil's never really been the reassuring type but for his brother, he tries. ]
