"Madam Please! You are familiar with my scent enough now, that even I am able to deduce you know it is me when you hurl this axes. I hide behind trees in order to keep myself from being struck, not to stalk." *He pleads with the large Russian Huntress as he removes the hatchet from the trunk of the tree he was hiding behind. He approaches her with her hatchet in hand, holding it out for her to retrieve from his grasp.* "Whether it is a test or a game you enjoy playing, please do not think of me such as one would think of another white masked stalker.. the smaller one. Not the large one."

“ don’t feel so special, i do that to everyone. your head’s still on your body, right? “

it wasn’t that anna was going it out of malice per se, it was just a bad habit on her end. the reflex to attack anything that crept up on her overrode any familiarity she might’ve had with it.

besides, she knew he wouldn’t die on the chance that she actually struck him down — which, she didn’t! — so it was no foul to her.

“ what do you want, now? “

"Oh, Annie, how have you been? have you got hurt in your trials...I can always check if you want.."

“для меня ничего, кроме укусов насекомых.”

anna was ALWAYS marked with various scrapes and bruises, both from in and out of trials. they didn’t bother her in the slightest with how tough her skin was, but she’d never mind letting Sally patch her up when offered...

🍐  :    how intelligent is my muse overall?  are they smarter than the average person,  or less than?  are they primarily self-taught,  or did they acquire most of their knowledge in school?  are they more street smart or book smart?  

thoughts of the book her mother would read to her so long ago floated through anna’s head. she had lost it so long ago, but could just barely recall it’s existence...

anna is a bit of a mixed bag. she’s extremely ‘smart’ in the sense of her ability to very quickly adapt to her environment if it’s dependent on her survival — which, i guess, is technically “street” smart — but she’s almost completely illiterate and can barely read, cannot write, and has no understanding of societal norms. she can only read the words found in the children’s book her mother read to her when she was just a child, but she hasn’t had to read in so long it’d be unsurprising if she could no longer remember how. she’s definitely more intelligent than the average person in her own way... she couldn’t tell you the square root of a number but could easily teach you several ways to kill an animal thrice your size.
