GLaDOS voice: "Would you like to see some artwork I generated? I've heard from other test subjects that AI-generated artwork produces an uncanny valley response in human viewers because they can't perceive it as fully real. They've told me that it looks absolutely hideous to them, that they can't imagine anything more disgusting than AI art. But, well I've been practicing and wanted your honest opinion. Feel free to let me know how ugly you find this by ranking it on a scale from 'vomit-inducing' to 'eye-bleeding'."

Hornet is slowly subsumed by fluff; Lace uses flea brew as a handwarmer (she has no intention of drinking it); and Ghost heard mention of a pogo competition and the "Challenge" prompt immediately appeared overhead.
Anyways, I feel like Hornet's kidnappers didn't do their due diligence before yoinking her, because they literally brought a half-wyrm--godlike creatures known for their territoriality--into their lands, and then did a shocked pikachu face when she started wrecking shit.
Like, they saw she was half weaver and assumed that that as the most important thing she could possibly be.
Meanwhile, Lace's frame of reference is Pharloom and weavers, so this is like discovering your weird classmate's dad is actually a dragon.

Hornet: It's no great secret my father was a wyrm.
Lace: Oh, worm?
Hornet: No, wyrm. The one from the commandment, specifically.
Lace: I see...
Lace: Wait... a wyrm!?
Hornet: Mm-hmm.
Lace: Those are real!?!
