"[b]IT DIDN'T SEEM LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME, OKAI[/b]?!" Rithrynn yelled back at the ever-so inquisitive little human, which in hindsight might have a rather reckless decision considering the current mental state of Liaena. Not to mention her dart-gun which was currently pointed at her, and containing goddess-knew-what kind of insidious concoction!

Straightening her back a little bit in the brief pause in the endless barrage of questions from the human that her sudden increase in volume had created, Rithrynn raised both her arms.
"I was outnumbered... like, massive to one."

Although Liaena; with her severely impaired self-preservation instinct; was liable to simply just suddenly throwing herself at insurmountable and literally suicidal odds, Rithrynn was not! Her suggestion to simply attack Sherpa on sight, all by herself, was ludicrous, and enough to convince Rithrynn that one could make the human girl charge a meatgrinder headfirst armed with nothing but a butter knife as long as you taped a picture of Sherpa on the machine!

... and somehow managed to avoid the machine eating said picture of Sherpa long enough for Liaena to jump in, but those were minor details!

"Look! I'm like... a double agent!" Rithrynn began again, focusing on the human.
"He thinks I will help. What he does not know is that you know that he does not know, since I know that he thinks he knows me but does not know that you know!!"

Rithrynn 'explained', forming an enthusiastic expression in an attempt to cheer up the mood in the room from deathly serious to just above okay.

[i]"Cooperating will probably lead to Sherpa's house getting busted, but... I'm sure he'll be okay. It will take nothing short of divine intervention from Elune herself for Liaena to ever catch him!"[/i]

"That means, that WE are now ahead of him!" Rithrynn exclaimed, before pointing with her thumb back to herself as her face took on a confident smile.
"And that's because of [B]ME[/b] and my [b]INGENUITY[/B]! I found his house first, after all... "
