Satan peers around the church. The sleek and smooth design reminded him more of a mall than a place of worship. Still, he was impressed. It's only been hours since they said they would start construction on the church. "How have you built this all so quickly?"

Abeegail easily recognizes the sleek black design and screen of Zookeeper.
She points at him and says, "Oh! It's here. Look, Satan, it is Zookeeper."

Abeegail seemed slightly disappointed, and slinked off the pile of supplies and onto the ground like an over sized slinky, before bouncing back onto her bumbly feet, "Sure! I'll give this place a try. No sense looking a gift horse in the mouth."
She gives a slight bow to the Lamb, "I am sorry if I offended you."

Abeegail then looks a little confused to herself, as if questioning things he said, because she didn't initially interpret the comment as flirting because she has been told her blood was rather sweet in the past, and she was also actually quite sweet? But, saying it wasn't is making her think it was, but she'll trust the Lamb's word on this.
Besides, she had no romantic interest in a smoker...
