[QUOTE="zilonox, post: 2843446, member: 33480"] It doesn't take much for Korgrave to figure out M. Hucrele is quite appalled by the prospect of three half-men "hunting" for her children. He's seen this kind of reaction before. A false front of bravery to hide a quivering, quaking fear. [i]Don't let the monster see your fear and he'll leave you be[/i], the school of thought seems to be. [i]Monsters are not born, they're made by those who fear them.[/i] That was a bit of wisdom he picked up from the carny master whose job it was to get people to pay him to scare them. An odd line of work, but Korgrave learned quite a bit about how to play to people's fear from him. He ponders briefly throwing his chair backwards and turning the table on it's side while giving his fiercest howl, simply to see the lady faint. But, he realizes this may be his only chance to get in on the good graces of the folks of Oakhurst, to prove to them that he's not the monster they think he is. Not to mention how his new-found friends would not only treat him but be treated in return when word gets around that keep company with such a feirsome beast. And he has no doubt word would get around quickly should M. Hucrele wish it. With a sigh, he stands (sloooowly so as not to startle anyone) and follows Grotz outside after saying, "[COLOR=Orange]I think a sssssssearch of the room would be good. Though, if you'll exsssssssscusssssssse me, I mussssssssst attend to, ahem, bussssssinessss outsssssside.[/COLOR]" [/QUOTE]
