[There's a slight smile on Rei's end, her focus remaining on Puu. He's...kind of strange, she admits, but there's a kind of charm to it too. An awkward charm, but she has a fondness for odd, ungainly animals. Pandas, after all, aren't exactly known for their coordination.

She shifts a little, lowering her hands and folding them across her belly, eyes finally flicking back to Yusuke and off the little whatever it is.]

A piece of you. That's...interesting. [Though, it sounds like...] Phobos and Deimos are restrained like that too. They can take a humanoid form, but not here in Cerealia. It's likely CERES restrained him somehow.

[And there. There's the million dollar question. Rei does not let her consternation show, her face staying relaxed. She's gotten used to this now, here, but it's always enough to set her teeth on edge. Just people skirting close to her divine form...now that Usagi is here.

But at the same time, Yusuke is pretty harmless. She can tell that much. Strong, dumb, a typical boy her age...but a little more adept and cunning. And he didn't think she was crazy.]

I didn't. That is...not a story for a public venue though. I don't mind sharing a little. But not where just anyone can overhear.

[Her head jerks back towards a supply room.]

In there.

[Turning, she walks rather briskly back towards that door and slips inside, leaving it cracked for him.]
