"I've got into a habit of not trusting such promises overly much," Uriel said, a hint of bitterness in her tone. "But thank you, I guess. You're certainly more reliable than most of the people I know."
She then grinned half-heartedly. "Humans? I thought that was just men. At least the last part with getting drunk and making up, that is."
No, she didn't consider herself to be, or ever have been, male. Before the Manor she had been sexless, no matter what pronoun had been used to refer to her, and even after that she had only been physically male when she'd had sex with Pestilence. If she'd had to describe herself in terms of gender, she'd definitely have called herself female. Not only was her body currently female (and had been that for much longer than all the times she'd been physically male combined) but she also found her mindset being more suitable for the traditional mold of "woman" than that of "man".
