Okay, yes, his eyes were definitely, most certainly changing color, and it was definitely, most certainly kind of scary. There was nothing wrong with it as a concept, but she had a certain allergic reaction to very pale blue eyes and someone whose eyes could turn that and then fade away into something slightly more comfortable...
It was like a cobra's hood or a dog's growl. The bigger the flare, the louder the growl, the paler the eyes. It was quite likely nothing of the sort, but the instinct was felt just as keenly.
She decided not to look at them, focusing on the food, which was reproducing. If she didn't pay attention to her manners, she'd probably start wolfing food down like the little gremlin she was, anyway. Bites half as big as she wanted, focusing on chewing and not just swallowing it whole, sipping rather than gulping.
She also focused on the compliments, though she tamped down the little wiggle-hop the pleasure of being praised made her want to do. She may have wiggled a little. It was a rat trait, one that Clarke had never quite broken her of but, thanks to his trying, she was very aware was incorrect social behavior.
"They, um... Why do they do that?" she settled on. "Change color, or, um, get lighter, I guess? Does it mean anything? Also, um, why did I do... what I just did? I don't mean the obvious, because-you-asked-me-to, and I understand if you won't tell me, but..." She'd like to know, because it had been very weird.
