"Pretty??" She immediately sputtered, her eyes wide with disbelief. Pretty was not how she would describe the King's human form! At all! He was terrifyingly tall and smelled like cinnamon and his eyes were awful, probably due to being a dragon but they belonged on a dragon, not a human! It was terrifying! And definitely not pretty!
Tiff stared at her as she spoke, mildly stunned. Harmless was certainly not a word she would use to describe the King, especially not with the rumors she'd heard and Bridget's own admission of his tendency to eat people. She wanted to ask, again, how she knew if the King liked her or not; no matter how many times she was assured of that fact, she didn't really believe it. "...kind of?" She said, bewildered by the sheer volume of 'want' in that sentence. Sentences? It had kind of all run together towards the end. Something about wanting to be wanted?
...Did Tiff want to be wanted?
Now that was a scary line of thought, mainly due to how incredibly loud the resulting YES was.
There was a tiny frown on her face as she watched her dig for the sauce. "Distract myself from distraction." She repeated, bringing a hand up to her mouth as she considered that. "...well, a lot of the reason that I'm here right now is because no one else would listen to me," she started, watching her dump the sauce on the meat pita (Mita? Meata? Peat? No that was something else), "and I figured my last shot was a dragon. I guess I can just... try to get back to infodumping? He seemed to like... well, tolerate it before."
When it seemed like Bridget was done with the sauce, she took the plate back, picking the pita up and studying it for a moment before taking another bite. "Oh hell, it is better with the sauce," she managed around her second mouthful of meat. No more conversation; Tiff was fairly certain if she didn't get the entirety of this meat monstrosity in her stomach within two minutes, she would actively die. Or at least die sooner than initially planned. She still wasn't completely convinced the King wasn't giving her food so she could become some depressingly small human version of a turducken.
