[Uh oh. Here's where things get dicey for Freddie. At the mention of getting "up close and personal" with monsters, his excitement falters. While he studies monsters and is incredibly knowledgeable in them, it's because he's terrified of them and wants to help in their eradication from a distance. Or once they're good and dead.

However, he doesn't want to look like a total pansy in front of two cute teenage girls who fight monsters. It's fear versus ego in Freddie's head for a moment, and both forces are pretty big. In the end, it's ego that wins out, and he attempts to slap a grin back on his face like it ain't no thang.]

S-Sure! Yeah! I mean, if no one's started writing down any research on the monsters here, someone needs to, yeah? Just in case we're ever in danger from them in here, so we know how to defend ourselves. Not that they ever get in here. Do they ever get in here?
