#ada and vaggie having a need for validation and purpose

[taradiddled]

Ada: So, when you're not chasing your girlfriend's tail, and helping fulfill her dreams...what the fuck do you do with yourself?

Vaggie: Okay, FIRST, I know you're doing. I've known you long enough that I can tell when you're trying to disguise being a dick with being actually interested in what I think. And right now, you're trying to imply that I have no life outside of my girlfriend.

Ada: Wow. Five stars, Vagatha. You saw right through me. I am sooooooo proud. Now answer the fucking question.

Vaggie: What question?

Ada: What the fuck is it that you do when you're not kissing your girlfriend's ass? Far as I've seen, you're practically attached at the hip, and you don't have an original thought outside something related to Rainbows and her Grand Plans.

Vaggie: Maybe you haven't noticed -- which isn't hard for you to do, since you're still a complete asshole -- but I BELIEVE in Charlie's dreams for Hell and Humanity. When the Exorcists abandoned me, Charlie took me in, and showed me there was a better way for things to be done, and it gave me a purpose again.

Ada: Gave you a purpose, or gave you something with which to fill that hole inside yourself needing validation and recognition?

Vaggie: ...what? No! No. I don't need anyone to validate or recognize me. For once, I am my own person.

Ada: Riiiiiiiiiight. You know what I see when I look at you, Vagatha?

Vaggie: A disobedient soldier in way over her head?

Ada: No. Well, actually, that IS a part of it. But when I look at you, I see so much of myself. And it's fucking annoying.

Vaggie: Excuse me? I am NOTHING like you.

Ada: Oh puh-LEASE. The way you moan about 'purpose' and 'beliefs' on your holier-than-thou soapbox? It's like I'm listening to myself on repeat from when I was Michael's lapdog. All that shit about 'purpose' you regurgitated? You got that from ME, kid. I can see it in your face, right now, that familiar hunger to MATTER to someone. You're just lucky that Rainbows is actually a good person, or else you'd be really fucked. Like I was.

As much as Ada can be an asshole, they would never want something like what they went through happen to someone else.
