Gurgled by Shinobu Oshino!
"Ahahaa! Considering your physical form appears to only imitate the traits of a human, perhaps I may permit my stomach to corrode the body of an additional creature!
"Perhaps the idea of my stomach's golden acid being able to dissipate certain portions of my stomach before they sling their tissue into the ends of their gaps may reinforce your desire to submerge your body underneath it."
Well, first things first about this interaction, Miq nearly leaps out of her skin when Shinobu suddenly appears out of her shadow, sending the shapeshifter scrambling over the futon to hide from such a surprise. She peers back over the other side of it, shaking like a leaf, wondering how the hell someone snuck up on her like that? Her, of all people? Miss 'Sorry I Startled You by Just Being Here and So Quiet You Didn't Notice Me Until I Spoke Up'? However, she starts to arch her brows as she realizes who it is and what she has said to her.
The strand of hair on the top of her head wiggles idly in frustration, mostly in that Shinobu must've been hiding in her shadow long enough to know of her secrets now. That she isn't truly human and that she is far too into enjoying being eaten by her friends and acquaintances, if she can convince them or get away with it. On one hand, this saves her from explaining herself. However, on the other hand, since the last time they had met and Shinobu had let her go. Not wanting to be eaten by her back then and they had instead become good friends, she now knows that there was no way she was getting out of this without ending up inside the vampiress' stomach. It's like coming to cash in a favor, now that you know it is actually on the table this time.
Shinobu had been watching and waiting and gathering information on her, hiding in her shadow. She now knows what makes Miq tick for this to work for them both and she's gladly using it against her. She's using all the right words and the confidence drives the point home. This cat-like woman had found the one mouse-like woman that might even willingly throw herself down her gullet. Part of this is play and the other part is seeing how worked up she can get this peachy-blonde she's only met once before. Watching her this long, she feels like she knows her so well already! And Miq is also picking up on that, apparently.
Miq stares back at her for a moment, clearly peeved that this is being used against her...and more peeved that it's working. "Mmmmph, hello to you too, Shinobu." Puff, puff. She looks cute when she pouts. "Perhaps I may, perhaps I may not. What makes you so sure?" She makes this argument, but she is pretty sure she'll be sussed out pretty quickly. The color flowing into her face betrays her words immediately.
