Hime wasn't sure exactly what to say to that statement. Though those sounded as hard to kick as balls that didn't exist. Still, she was mildly concerned that should she continue to press the issue, the girl might try to demonstrate her ability to make good on her word. The last thing she needed was some midget trying to cram her knee into her in the chest in the middle of the hall.

"Oh, so it's a matter of attitude," she said, humoring the girl. "I was wondering, since I was sure I'd left my tiara at home." Actually, she had.

Hime wasn't entirely certain what the girl meant by that warning, though she could take a few guesses.

"I don't particularly need a 'wingman' tonight so much as I need someone who can beat up anything mean and nasty until I can find a proper weapon," she replied coolly. "Think you can kick anything that's not as wide as a wall and as stationary as one too?"
