Emma hit him with a blandly unimpressed look from her inexhaustible supply, and examined her nails. Since she wore gloves and thus couldn't in fact see her nails, it made the gesture even more dismissive, helping to conceal her growing awareness that his emotions felt...wrong, in a way she couldn't yet place.

Yes, yes, look upon your works, we mighty, and despair. Whether or not Shockwave recognized Romantic poetry, it was obvious Emma was quoting. I've held the power to shatter worlds too, darling. It's overrated.

That 'darling' was about midway on the scale of Emma's condescending use of the word...so, normal for her.
