"You don't think I notice you're afraid of me?"
Tikka wears an unfazed expression, immediately replying. She makes sure they both have to acknowledge the pause she takes before saying with a steel gut and honeyed timbre, "I'm not afraid of you."
"No?"
"No." she backs away smoothly.
The glare that meets her next ruminates for a never ending amount of seconds. There's cannibalistic look in the eyes staring back at her. Tikka laughs a little as if in disbelief, genuinely trying to hold back how tickled she is.
"Ah." then a sardonic chuckle that isn't hers, "See, I thought there for a moment..." a body crowds just around her neck - significantly more taut with lean muscle she can't see, "you were shaking when we were formally introduced." those blue meet hers again, challenging.
Tikka smiles gorgeously, somehow still remaining completely innocent, "Shaking. That's good."
