[She sighs heavily, patting the serpent. Now isn't the time to grieve for her Planet. That can come later when she's had enough time to process what's happened. Hopefully somewhere with a warm bath and a dry change of clothes.]
It makes sense, at least. Well it's not like it would be the first time I've gone snooping around in the Lifestream, even if I'm usually the one fishing people out rather than the other way around. I guess you could say I'm kinda an expert at it. Although I'm starting to think I might be lacking in a couple areas.

Soldiers, hired thugs, sometimes both at the same time. I wasn't really fond of the idea of ending up in the local crazy scientist's lab so he could experiment on me. I'd seen what he did to people, I wasn't really excited about being dissected just because of what I was. I'm just a little too fond of having all my limbs where they belong to want to volunteer!
[Something about the chipper way she says it could easily come across as unnaturally cheerful; laughing about the horrors as a way to gloss over past trauma, soften the blow somehow. Either that or she's just good at moving past it.]
