The boy was right to be careful about Black Widows... Mikhail himself both understood and agreed with his way of thinking. Judging by how his expression, he also knew that the choices he had at that moment were almost nonexistent. That said, Mikhail could only guess so much by watching Thom's expression. The probable mental conversation between him and Dunny though, as both looked at each other was something he couldn't know. Fortunately, Mikhail was right to bet on Fatima for that kind of problem. Despite her whimsical nature and talent to find trouble, she was still a kind and sweet woman that knew how to deal with people, especially calming them down. Almost immediately dismissing Jandar and Bellinar, which were undoubtedly a big source of fear for the boy while at the same time reassuring that the boy would be welcome on their camp and well treated, she turned to Thom and Dunny again before giving them a kind smile and then... doing a front flip... out of nowhere, followed by a theatrical bow that ended in a roll as she flopped her back on the ground. Mikhail blinked a few times, speechless, looking to Thom, Dunny and then Fatima again with an incredibly confused and surprised expression. Surprisingly enough, both him and Thom had similar expressions, even though Mikhail was normally quiet, even him couldn't hold himself, letting his jaw drop as he watched Fatima getting up and rubbing her back, mentioning that it was a long time since she did something like that. When he thought that Fatima would know how to deal with the boy, he was expecting something a bit more discreet and motherly. Fortunately, it seemed that her idea worked, judging by how happy Dunny was, promptly saying that she was a good queen, jumping around. Even Thom, which was much more careful regarding others was apparently too confused to even think about Fatima and Mikhail being bad anymore. [color=6ecff6]"I must confess... I wasn't expecting this. That said... It seems it worked, right?"[/color] Mikhail said after Jandar with a chuckle as he shook his head, as if still struggling to believe something like that happened. Jandar in the other hand was acting almost like a dignified butler, tidying Fatima's hair and clothes as well as he could, trying to make her more presentable. [color=6ecff6]"Now you know why I said Fatima is rather... unique, don't you?"[/color] Mikhail said to the group with a small smirk and a chuckle, teasing Fatima. Just as he had finished saying that though, a familiar voice interrupted them as a figure landed just nearby the group. Inquiring what was happening in a rather unpleasant manner, Xandar demanded to know what was happening, making Mikhail simply raise an eyebrow, looking at him with a piercing stare. The last thing they needed right now was someone who didn't know how to hold their tongue and their attitude to frighten the boy even more. [color=6ecff6]"Everything is already taken care of, Xandar. Your presence here is unneeded. We are going back to the camp soon."[/color] Mikhail said, in a serious tone. [color=6ecff6]"That said... if you want to blame anyone for waking you up, blame Bellinar."[/color] Mikhail finished.
