"At least I can [i]stop[/i] doing things dumbly!"

Shifu blinks, staring hard into. Into a camera? There's supposed to be a guy here in the helicopter. You know, a guy with a megaphone, somebody who can cow backwards at having a dinner-plate's worth of razor-sharp chompers shut an inch from his nose.

Chompers. She's her again! Oh, she can change! She grins--as if there's another expression possible with these teeth--and does a little scamper mid-air.

… in front of a camera.

Which is steadfastly refusing to be intimidated. 

Probably the scamper was a mistake. 

She stares into the glass at her reflection, admiring the way the fisheye lens amplifies her tombstone teeth. No broccoli in her teeth, right? She hasn't eaten any today, and the transformation would have burned any away, but the way people talk she's pretty sure it just shows up sometimes.

…She's supposed to be doing something. Right! Right!

"You just talk, and everything comes out dumbly! Hiding behind a camera, making your own rules, and then deciding everyone who doesn't follow the rules you made up is bad!

"At least Ra--At least she bothered to show up and help people! She actually cares, and she's had plenty of opportunities to drink all of our blood and has never done it! 

"And Foxpearl is all of the good bits of Foxfire! That's why she's so small! But she's only gonna get bigger and stronger!"

She glances down, and then turns fully to stare. 

Oh. Oh, um.

That's. 

She's pretty sure friends don't to that to friends? A little knot churns in her chest at the sight of the startled fright around the Princess's eyes.

But the Princess looks… Almost looks more excited than frightened? There's a blush on those cheeks--like she wasn't expecting this, but it's also not unwelcome? Which makes no sense? This should be terrifying, scary? And she's not fighting--or, you know, wiggling as strongly as she normally would, but--

She stares down, stares at the camera, and decides she needs to ask some questions later on, because this is. 

Um. 

Anyway. Anyway. Um.

She stares at the camera, quite aware that she's been disrupted and not quite sure how to get rupted again.

"Anyway. We're actually out here helping instead of making hard decisions. So, um."

She lets the fire cover her, quite glad for it, and the osprey dives to follow Foxpearl.
