"Way to go, furball!" Corliss says to Socrates, then goes running after her friend. "Celina, wait! Socrates was just being dumb, you don't have to-"
She is cut off as a huge thing jumps infront of her. It's big, hairy, and has a lot of legs.
"Well, waddaya know, there really ARE giant spiders in these woods," Socrates comments without emotion.
Corliss stares at the creature for a moment,...then screams bloody murder. "SPIDER! SPIDER! YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

Celina looks back. "Aragog! Stop! They're my friends!!! Stay away from them!!!" celina yelled at the spider.
"Ah. So this is Corliss?" Aragog asked, looking at Corliss and then to Celina.
"Yes. Now please stop, your scaring her."
"Yes, I know. I did not mean to scare you, Corliss. I am terribly sorry." Aragog said looking at Corliss. "I shall see you later, then, Celina?" Aragog asked.
"Yes, Aragog. You will." celina said as Aragog left.

"Sp-spider...giant...spider...and it talked..."
"She doesn't like spiders, you can probably tell," Socrates comments, jumping from the tree and giving Corliss a gentle shake. "C'mon, snap out of it. You're not that strong, but you're not this weak either." He then glances at Celina. "You said, 'they're my friends,' not just 'she's my friend.' So I'm your friend, eh? Well, there's worse things in this world than friendship, I'll give you that."

Celina glanced at the ground. 'He can be stubborn....and a bit mean...' she thought. "Fine. Next time I'll say 'She's my friend' instead of 'They're my friends'. Will that make you feel a bit better?" Celina said to Socrates.

"Did I ever say that I was insulted by that?" Socrates asks indignantly. "I'm fine with being your friend, so long as I don't get you in the trouble this one and I've gotten into once or twice." He glares at Corliss, who's still in shock. "Oh, for the love of god! Snap out of it!"

"Guess not." Celina said to Socrates. Celina throws a water ball at Corliss. "Really, snap out of it!"

"Cah! I'm wet!" Corliss yelps, shaking her face wildly.
"Good call," Socrates comments.
"Wait a minute! just a minute ago I saw...I saw a..."
"Don't you dare go into shock again, you little bug, I mean it, don't!" Socrates yells before Corliss spirals again.

"That's what you think," Corliss mumbles, eyes darting around as if expecting the spider to lunge at her from the bushes.
"She never gives up," Socrates says with annoyance, but burried deep within it there's a slight air of affection. "So you're friends with it? Very nice. Obviously other humans present would never be ablr to do that."

"Corliss, get over yourself! I know Aragog, he wouldn't eat you. Trust me." Celina said to Corliss. "Obviously." she said, turning to Socrates.

"Don't repeat yourself, Corliss," Socrates says quickly, as Corliss opens her mouth to do just that. "And you think I'M the dence one here."
"You are!" She insists. "You understand spells just fine, but with people's emotions-how people feel about other people-you suck!"
"You insult me!" Socrates says. "I understand you just fine!"
"Like heck you do," Corliss mumbles.

Celina rolled her eyes. 'They fight like brother and sister!' she thought, smiling.

Socrates then glances at Celina sharply. "You are aware that, although I do want to be your friend, I will not hesitate to harm you if you put any of us, including yourself, in danger?"
"You take everything too seriously," Corliss moans.
"Hey, humans shouldn't be able to do that thing with the waterballs! I'm doing the right thing, being cautios."

"I put myself in too much danger...so you might want to harm me now or leave me alone. Whichever you prefer." Celina said, scanning the forest as if looking for something.

Socrates sighs. "So cryptic. You remind me of someone I used to know. Fortunately, I liked her."
Corliss grins. "Ooh, was she your GIRLFRIEND?"
"Shut your mouth!" Socrates yells, blushing madly. "I have never been engaged romantically with anyone!"
" 'Engaged romantically' Excelent way to put it," Corliss laughs.
