The devil knows sign, but refuses to use it. Wrench puckers his lower lip, as if to say the story seems to track. It sounds like something Satan would do. Though since meeting one man who absolutely insists that he's an angel, perhaps he's starting to develop an entirely different concept of what that all means. Gabriel certainly has proven an interesting and welcoming person, but Wrench has a hard time regarding him as divine or infallible.

The next part is somehow much more of a surprise. There's been no interest expressed in Solvunn for learning the language; only finding ways to overcome Wrench's use of it. And his over-reliance on the ability to send 'texts' with his brain has left the tall man disconnected from the understanding that it's all being translated into Common. It's been so straightforward that he hasn't stopped to consider the layers, but now he spares it some thought. They'd have to use Common as the base, perhaps, and he has no idea if it looks the same to everyone as it does to him.

But the factions are supposed to be enemies, right? Clearly his understanding remains totally basic.
