	Some of the fear that had built up in Waverley drained from her as she felt the creature's hand slip into hers, reciprocating her offered handshake and gave her a big ol' smile. Sure, the smile was filled with razor-sharp teeth, but that wasn't the creature's fault. Waverley returned it with a small smile of her own, one that was somewhat forced, with traces of fear still lingering as the creature began to elegantly prance around the purple-haired girl. Waverley slowly spun around, following the creature with her gaze. When it allowed her help from her peers, she quickly shifted her attention back to them, listening for their help. None came - in fact, the only thing she heard was bickering concerning what they should do, with the only person hellbent on helping her being a young athletic-looking man she didn't recognize. As the Sphinx crossed in front of the forcefield that kept Waverley in, she shot a glance at Emily, a twinge of betrayal in her eyes as her truest friend in New Rome's intent to help her seemed to be outshined by that of a stranger. The glance lasted for only a second, as her eyes shifted back to follow the strutting sphinx.

	[color=A020F0]"Um..."[/color] Waverley began, digging through her memories, trying to remember the details of the childhood riddle speed rounds she and her sister would partake in to make road trips less boring. God, Riley would not be struggling with this as much as she was. She bit down on her bottom lip, thinking for a few more moments, before speaking. [color=A020F0]"Is it...is it rain?"[/color] Waverley asked, her stomach tied into a tight knot. Her grip on her guitar loosened, letting it rest in her arms into a playing position, as her fingers slowly began to strum a soft cover of [i]Have You Ever Seen the Rain[/i]. [color=A020F0]"Can we please cut the life and death stuff? I mean, when was the last time you just...hung out with someone? I'm up for continuing the riddle game, but why don't we bet, like, money or having to do funny dares, instead of, y'know...my life."[/color]
