"Twice as much of you just means twice as much to like, non?" Rook winks mischievously, as much to reassure the man as to play. Why should he be so surprised, after all? If something is scary, then it's scary, no matter how small a package it comes in--but if it's not scary, then who cares how big it is, or how many teeth it has? He's met plenty of fearsome beasts that he absolutely adored, even if most other people would be terrified of them.

"How do you look, then?" Surely his imagination can't be too far off, can it? Sleek, powerful, dangerous, inhumanly beautiful..... He should probably get ready to start a fire and cook this fish, rather than daydream about how handsome Jade must look as his true self, shouldn't he?
