Pluto just raised an eyebrow at the creature as it eyed her. It seemed rather, well, rude. It's longer gaze on her wasn't unsettling, but did make her wonder why it suddenly had an interest in her. Well, no matter. With a brief nod to it, she turned her garnet eyes back to Briar, resuming her softer smile to him. It seemed he was quite observant to be still be concerned for her, and it also seemed she needed to be more careful of showing her discomfort.

"Yes, I am sure I'm fine, or at least I will be, in time," she said, her smile quirking a little more up at her own word usage. She stood from the bench, the chain of keys at her waist jangling slightly as she moved. She leaned down slightly to curl her fingers around the silver key-like staff that had been placed down beside her, and lifting it up, to rest it on it's tip to the ground.

"You ... are also not from here, are you?" Pluto questioned the boy softly, also she also made a side glance at the creature wondering if that could be the case for it as well.
