"Weeell..." Archie began, in a bit of a squeaky voice, "I do have a dog, actually." Not so much a big one... or a tough one... but a dog, nonetheless. "Not sure he's a hero kind of pup, though, if you know what I mean." A bit of a pansy, just like Archie. He tilted his head to the side and squinted his eyes. Was he supposed to know what a Zeus was? Was this a pet of hers? "Uhhh, Zeus?" Whatever it was, he did not want it, thank you very much.

Was she still going to stick around? Was she trying to be nosy and get inside his hut, too? Archie was a bit more hesitant about letting this one in. He had a feeling she would ask him 20 questions about each and every possession of his. "Flesh-eating plants? Golly." He was amused by this, mostly because he had never really had any experiences with those plants. Only briefly when he was at school but that was a long time ago. They sounded absolutely ridiculous and terrifying. "Oh, no, no... not too busy... not really." He paused, thinking he had said the wrong thing. "I mean, not yet... I will be in a bit. Probably." There.

"I DO know what you mean, Mr. Millard." Millard. Reminded her of Mallard and now all she could see was ducks. Ah well, at least she'd have a way to remember his name. Associations were always helpful. "Zeus is a kneazle. A male one with a big ego and a proclivity for pouncing." Not quite a hero feline but one that was more likely to protect you than Millard's pup, that much seemed definite.

The brunette was being nosy. It was the way he was behaving the urged her on, like he was trying to hide something. Brown eyes kept trying to peek past him into his hut, curious about what might be inside. She wanted to see the cowardly pup now, yeah? "They're fascinating. D'you know that you have to floss their teeth? Dangerous job but it's a fun challenge." Maybe THAT'S what he needed, a flesh-eating plant! Something to think about, no doubt.

Eyebrows were raised at the man's response and Maddie was starting to wonder where they got this one from. Seemed to be a few goal posts short of a Quidditch pitch if you know what I'm saying. "Do you maybe need HELP with whatever will be making you busy in a bit?"
