[ It was, wasn't it? But it's nothing she's not used to - she tends to give and give and give, even if she never expects anything in return. ]
Sure, plenty of times. I have to admit, I haven't used that form in quite some time, though, now that I don't go adventuring as much... It almost felt nostalgic!
Something tells me you were more impressed by the spider than the dinosaur, though.
[He chuckles lightly. Maybe she'll win a bit more information if she turns the conversation towards spiders, though.]
They were both impressive. But... [He almost gives a casual shrug of his shoulders. Or at least the impression of one.] Spiders have always been a favorite of mine ever since I was younger. I'd always find some beneath the floorboards of my old family home, and keep them in glass jars for a time.
No, I haven't. [If only because this thread takes place before I submitted a suggestion box request for him, which actually was a terrarium full of spiders. Please return to this query later.] The only ones I've seen already belong to someone else on Tsuchigumo.
[ With an enthusiastic nod, she smiles proudly, resting threaded hands on her hips. ]
That's right! I've been told that I'm an endless well of patience! Which is good, because I've also been told that I can be frightening when I'm angry.
[ Which makes sense. Who would want to piss off a woman who can turn into a dinosaur? ]

Is that so...? Have you taken to keeping spiders here, too?
[ Though, come to think of it... has she even seen any spiders around here?? ]
no subject
No, I haven't. [If only because this thread takes place before I submitted a suggestion box request for him, which actually was a terrarium full of spiders. Please return to this query later.] The only ones I've seen already belong to someone else on Tsuchigumo.

Ah, speaking of... You're on a different team now, aren't you? How are you liking your new teammates?
no subject
I don’t really know my teammates all that well, though. Most of them are completely new to this place.
no subject
[ narrator voice: it is not. ]
no subject
Oh? I must have missed him. [ ??? Or... likely not. He remembers every name on the Unicorn team registry.] What's he like?
no subject
Ah, don't tell him I said that.
no subject
She must.
Henry's lips quirk. That liar.]
Oh, wait. I think I know who you mean. The one who looks like it causes him physical harm to be nice.
no subject
... Yes! Though I don't think I've seen him be particularly nice yet, so I wouldn't know about that last part. But it's alright!
no subject
Something tells me it'd take a lot to get under your skin, anyway. Even a person like him.

no subject
I'm not sure I can even imagine you angry, Ori.
[Which Henry knows through personal experience means very little. Even the kindest faces can hold the deepest, most roiling anger.]
no subject
Then, hopefully you never have to see me angry.
[ Likely wishful thinking, based on what they know about this place and its games, but a girl can dream... ]
