Cassius put his hands up defensively when her hand went back, she looked to be making the motion of slapping him. His eyes widened, as strong as he was he had been much more vulnerable in this form, he wasn't going to use his abilities against her. Explanation would be the only way, maybe she'd calm down after he told her everything. "Wait let me explai-" His speech was cut off the very second Arachne's hand made contact with his face, he face went a full 180 degrees to the right, he turned back to face her.

In truth it stung quite a bit, it took a some trying to refrain from wincing, he looked toward her as she yelled. Gasping as he was tackled down by the female, he held back a defensive snarl as he cheeks were pinched, he understandably deserved the pain she inflicted on him. "I-..." He was drowned out by her yelling, he had no idea how he could have told her in his true form. Truthfully he was sorry for putting her through such hurt, the angry look in her eyes was obvious.

He waited for her to finish venting before working his hands from under her, reaching up and pulling her hands away from her face. "Please, let me explain..." He spoke, gracing his hand from down her forearms to her wrists, and to her fingertips. His eyes wandered subtly, viewing her skull face before staring back into her now red eyes. "I didn't know how to tell you earlier, I apologize for making you feel this way.." He said in a slightly saddened tone, thinking that this would mean his removal from the room. "This was not my intention, I try not to harm people." He said, looking away from her finally. "I especially apologize for harming someone like you..." He admitted, he was sorry and he didn't know what else to do at this time, he couldn't change back, it could kill him. "I....if you wish, I will leave..." Cassius spoke.
