The slugcat eyes the bag for a moment, but shakes her head.

"...I'll be fine. I just needed a fix. I'm full, if anything."
She shrugs again.

She quickly swivels around to find the characan. She's still got some of the center stuff smudged on her cheek. She's a little grayer and sweating, now that she's able to be observed easier.
"Hw- OH. Oh. Yeah, no. I'm just DYING to get the good stuff right now."
"Hw- OH. Oh. Yeah, no. I'm just DYING to get the good stuff right now."

"Well, things are always going to go wrong, so long as you live. You can't prevent, only predict and mitigate."

She manages a shrug.

And she takes it much better now! She spits onto it's handle with sap-like saliva, and sticks it onto her back.
"Notably. Thanks!"

After a moment, she springs back up like a cartoon. Little spores emenate from her for a moment.

"Exactly. Names belong to concepts."

That clarifies nothing to the slugcat, but she feels as if she's not going to get anything better from his explanations.
