[Lup's reaction to his question is certainly unexpected... but not unwelcome.
He hadn't anticipated that touch of defiance, the way she's meeting his gaze like she's ready to fight, vying for power, her shoulders tight and her jaw strong. An interesting feeling rushes through Barry then. A mix of wanting to give in to someone clearly dominant, something almost like the alpha pheromones of a foozle matriarch filling the air between them - and wanting to be the one dominating. Wanting to show this little human how big he really is. How serious he is.
It's impossible not to smile. A little restrained by their environment, but big enough that his huge teeth are plainly visible. The heat coming off her body in waves feels good. Barry wants to feel much, much more of that.]

[He slips his hand out from underneath hers, reaching up to stroke along the slender line of her arm. His hand absolutely dwarfs her.] Y'ever do this kinda thing before? With somebody like me, I mean.
