He was still a statue, despite Terra's attempts at bringing him out of it. Well, to be fair Terra had never had someone turn into a statue on her. She'd startled her fair of canines, been attacked, run away from, and even one who flat out fainted after she was done with him. Everything they were doing together was rather new to her, the small feelings of like and mischief mixed up in her strangely innocent mind. Terra knew how to get a reaction out of him, that was sure. That didn't mean she knew why he reacted that way, or what it meant.
It took a while, the smile dropping from her face. Had she done something wrong? He didn't seem particularly happy. When he finally said thanks it was dragging all over the place, shaky and nervous. Despite this small revival he was still stiff as a board. Stepping over Terra nudged him, pushing him to move slightly. Claudius? You okay? Worry shone in her eyes now. Had she broken him? Looking around Terra tried to think of how she could keep the fact that she'd made a statue out of a guest hidden. Maybe if she stuck him in her room?
