The sappy sentiments made her glance away, shrugging her shoulders to look out the window again. The woman may not have finished the mystery, but she'd helped enough to get the wheel turning, and it wasn't like everything was completely solved yet. She still had plenty of questions.
Her mouth lifted in a fanged grin and Thal scoffed. "If anything, I'd like to find the man only so I can punch him - or sink my teeth in his neck." Not for the reasons that might come to Maea's mind, but simply to show him what she'd become because of his actions. Waving a flippant hand, she said, "Love is a stupid and unnecessary emotion. It's a weakness." One that she had no desire to remember experiencing or experiencing again soon. After all, she could have all the fun and sex of a relationship without the ooey gooey nastiness of commitment.
On the matter of her 'getting along with people,' her eyes narrowed in confusion. "In general? Fine. I guess." It wasn't like she'd suddenly become warm and cuddly, but she was at least trying to be more 'friendly.' She didn't want to be such a loner anymore, yet that didn't mean she was going to be all sunshine and rainbows. People would have to be willing to put up with her snark and violent tendencies.
Still perplexed by the question, she narrowed her eyes suspiciously, "Why do you ask?"
