Training might be the best thing on the schedule for the mischievous little things, and though Hotaru does not startle overmuch the way Seren does, it doesn’t speak badly of the younger woman. Hotaru has merely seen and experienced far worse surprises than a jewelry thief. Though she’s slightly more worried about her long hair honestly - untangling a flighted lizard from her long locks seems like a disaster in the making.
“Well he can’t have it,” she blusters playfully, craning her neck away to try and both make it easier for Seren to pluck the Treeflit off and to hopefully get her hair out of the metaphorical crossfire. “Though he has fantastic taste.” Amusement returning as if it had never left, winking at Seren even as the creature pulls anew on the gold chain, causing it to dig gently into her throat. She blows a loud raspberry at the lizard, and immediately bursts into laughter when it drops the chain to mimic the noise right back.
