"Have you run into one before?" they asked.
"The human wouldn't survive that thing on its own, " Bug scoffed.

"Only heard talk of undead things but nothing like that." She growled. One thing after another. Maybe it'd have been better of if she had run into one of the things.

"Ohhh." They nodded. "I'm not very good at understanding human sarcasm. They're very awful."
