[ Once upon a time he had been scared of ghosts, putting on a brave outwards face even as his hands had trembled at his sides. But that had been before - before his life had been turned upside down, and before he'd stepped foot aboard the Grandcypher.
He stares at the cookie for another moment longer before finally giving in and taking a bite. RIP cute dog cookie, you will be missed.... (up until he comes back to this same cafe and sneakily buys another box). It's not surprising that it's good, the flavor not too overpowering and the texture melt-in-his-mouth, but he lets out a small hum of surprised anyway. It's been a long time since he's sat and indulged like this.
He chews, then swallows. His voice is casual when he speaks again, almost relaxed. ]
Hard to be scared of something after you've talked with it once or twice.
[ First Ferry aboard the Grandcypher, and then Rin in Achamoth. Not that he would ever underestimate either of the two women, but easier to conquear a fear of the known rather than the unknown. ]
