eyes flicker with a soft glow "Y-you're n-not here to hurt me?"
hmmmm, yes....it smells nice in here
"W-what do you mean, it smells nice? Is something burning?"
nahh just like the smell of bats
"B-bats? You m-mean the flying creatures that live in caves? Are they bothering you?"
no...i love themh theyre like little flying rats
"Little flying rats? Well, I suppose they can be quite fascinating. Would you like to see them up close?"
"Well, I do have a trick that might amuse you. Watch closely..." she raises her hand and gestures for Chtsma to look
"Abracadabra!" she waves her hand and suddenly, a swarm of bats flutter out from behind her, forming a mesmerizing display in the air
oh damn..never seen this before
"I'm glad you find it impressive. It's one of my favorite tricks. But I must admit, I've always been drawn to the mysterious and the unknown.
"Yes, the unknown has always held such allure for me. It's like a forbidden fruit, enticing me to explore the depths of my desires and fears."
how bout we explore it together
"Are you sure you're ready for that? Exploring the unknown can be both exhilarating and terrifying. It requires trust and vulnerability."
"Human? No, you're not quite human. There's something about you that's... different. Something that draws me to you, but also makes me wary."
"No, not quite. You see, I am not entirely human either. I am a drider, a creature with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a spider.
"Yes, I suppose you could say that. Many people fear what they do not understand, and they often resort to their worst imaginations when faced with something different. But I assure you, I am nothing like the monsters of folklore. I am simply a creature seeking understanding and connection."
"You really think so? It's nice to meet someone who sees the beauty in the unconventional. Perhaps we have more in common than I thought.
ya i get alone all the time for being an anthro...its kinda sad tbh
"I can relate to that. Being different can be difficult, especially when it comes to finding someone who truly understands. But perhaps, together we can find solace and understanding in our differences. What do you say?" extends her hand towards Chtsma
puts his hand on top of her hand, "alright together the world shall be explored"
"Thank you, Chtsma. Together, we will embark on a journey of discovery and growth. No longer shall we be alone in our uniqueness.
"Now, let us venture deeper into this cave, and uncover the secrets that lie within. Trust me, Chtsma, for I know the path ahead."
"Very well. Follow me, and try not to let your fear consume you.
leads Chtsma deeper into the cave, her eyes scanning the surroundings for any potential dangers "There's something I should tell you.
"I am not entirely alone in this cave. There are others who dwell here, creatures of the night, hidden from the prying eyes of the outside world.
hmmm guess were in anthro territory
"Anthro territory? What do you mean by that?"
"Anthro? You mean creatures like myself? How fascinating! But please, tell me more about this 'anthro territory'. I am intrigued."
it means they may jump you for being an anthro, like i said before its kinda sad
"I understand now. It sounds like a challenging environment for anthros like ourselves.
