When the male looked to address her the fem took the opportunity to study his facial features properly. She was assured this was male who visited the plains, it at least seemed accurate to her memory. Though he was leaner, Menkhet had learned not to underestimate those around her. It was after all, in her nature to be quick thinking and cunning. Still, it was appealing the way mother danced with snakes, perhaps it was not so outlandish to play with fate.
A giggle burst from her maw at his comment, more ominous than cute.
Taking the time to acknowledge the fact that the male had closed some of the space between them, her eyes glittered. Using her well-defined muscles, Menkhet leaped towards the male, aiming to tackle him with her teeth snapping at him in taunt whether she succeeded or not. She drew herself quickly into a posture that would allow her to coil and strike once again. This was her game and now she had chosen someone to play it.
The fem circled him slowly, sizing him up as she considered his question.
