Beastboy’s audience goes through a curious series of reactions, eyes wide at first (attacks by mutated animals were not uncommon on his world) then a narrowed gaze (‘cool science’ is not how Orcelito categorizes that level of experimentation). Finally, in response to the upbeat attitude through it all, he manages a subdued smile. "You’re very fortunate to have lived. Your parents must be skilled alchemists."

And then his attention returns to the whiskers tickling his cheek. His passenger squints at the offered hand and leans forward to give it a curious sniff. It’s enough for the Catmancer charm to kick in, and she braces her hind legs to leap to Beastboy!
