Remi tilted her head to the side to dodge one of the projectiles. Just because she was deep in her own mind didn't mean that she wasn't paying attention. As one of the few that spent any amount of time around Yakoul, she was quite used to the cat-thing's odd version of "fun". One of her hornets, the one with the scorpion tail, decided to make a game of it. It striked each of the balls, impaling them on its venom encased tail. Once it had about three stuck on, it whipped its tail, sending them right back at Yakoul. Another hornet, this one was colored red and black, also found enjoyment in the projectiles. It got struck by one and then burrowed into it. It vibrated its wings quickly, sparking a fire that consumed the ball within seconds. It then flew into another to continue its game. Yet another hornet decided to take part in Yakoul's fun. This one was the most normal looking of the hornets, but that didn't mean much when the large, double set of mandibles were taken into account. Another thing that kept it from being "normal" was the fact that the hornet looked like a cross between a hornet and a praying mantis. This was one of the cross breeds she'd been experimenting with...and it had a temper. It snatched one of the projectiles out of the air and gripped it tightly. Using its mandibles, it cut the ball into pieces and stuffed them into its mouth. Once that was done, it fired them back at Yakoul in tiny pieces in a very rapid fashion. "I don't remember much of that night. My wedding night." she replied. "I spent most of it asleep or delirious. The Mitarashi head made me take a lot of pills. Tried to make me normal." she stroked her thumb across the back of the Mantis Hornet's head. "This one wished to use my ex-husband's penis for protein for her brood." she chuckles a little bit. "Then use the hole to plant the brood. But, he's actions were not against the familial law. Only our Empress can pass judgment on him and the clan itself should she wish." she looked at the cat thing again. "You wouldn't willingly give away a plaything. But, I'm sure she would appreciate a life rather than being tortured, eaten and her corpse raped. I'll offer her the choice."
