[Dany's transformation from stiff to open (but not all the way relaxed) is interesting. Ellie doesn't know what to make of it, but it probably isn't a problem. She's met too many friendly people who turned on her quickly, metaphorically or literally. At least she knows where she stands with aggressive people.]
It's okay. You just startled us. [Ellie doesn't quite smile, but she does shrug her shoulders to force them to relax a little more. She hasn't been able to loosen up for ages.
Theseus, feeling Ellie calm, does so as well. She peers around Ellie's leg, still concerned, but looking much less likely to try and bite the creature.
Speaking of--Ellie takes a second look. It's not quite like anything she's seen. Close to a raccoon, but...rounder. And brown.]
So--what is Irellia? I've never seen an animal like her. [Ellie doesn't try to block Theseus as she sniffs at the air and takes a step forward, apparently trying to figure it out in her own way.]
