I'm not sure that we have a say in how our voices sound, most accents just fade or get muddled over time the longer someone is away from a certain place. Though, that's just for humans. Maybe muses can choose to sound however they want.
It is easier to sound harder when out on the streets. Not as much room to be soft, though I think compassion can always have a place.
Some. I am immune to most illnesses, I’m a bit stronger than a human of my stature. I think I could probably learn magic, I am in tune to that sort of power but I never felt the drive to harness it.
And touching me is often described as a bit addictive.

Nah, observational data only from the experiments. I have really good hearing, though. It helps with collecting the data. And a pretty sensitive touch.

I hope you're right. At the very least, I do believe in redemption. That our inner demons can drive us towards our better angels.

And this version, a little combination of the rough and the soft? You can be both.

The balance is... going.
[His voice fades to one of less confidence there. He hasn't trusted himself fully since he tossed Bullseye off that roof.]
Some days I trust it more than others.

You’ll find it again. You have a good heart, you don’t make it this long without learning how to tell who is a good person quickly.

[he gives her little goosebumps at his touch, obviously he has her interest. It’s obvious right down to her heartbeat.]
I like that thinking; I quite like you in general.
