((Wait, you have wings?! I mean. Yeah, I bet that'd be fun!))
Journeying alone was very boring, and Sesselav wasn't really used to it. Even if she did managed to escape for a few hours, eventually the drones and workers would catch up to her and try and either escort her back, or barrage with a ton of questions till she just got sick of it and went back to the hive. She knew she was truly alone when she walked away from a small town and nothing came after her. Nothing caught up with her to tell her to return to the hive for safety...nothing asked her about what it was like, or where she had gone, there was just...nobody.
Not anymore though, there was Hasea.
"I agree, different is better." She smiled and nodded to her friend. In her old life, she couldn't imagine it being this...simple. It was so...easy to have a friend. She couldn't ever imagine it being like this when she was a queen, walking in the open with a human. It was confusing, but at the same time...clear as day.
If Sesselav had to figure out why she found baby animals so cute, she probably would. She found baby insects cute after all, caterpillars and maggots, little larvae and the like. Most people didn't find those as cute, but for her it spanned over multiple species. Hell, she even found tadpoles to be kinda cute. But baby mammalian animals had their own strange way about them. Probably it was the ability to vocalize a pathetic nature. The little noises that they could make when in trouble or lost. Bugs didn't really have those sounds...they had...smells of sorts that they gave off in a way, at least, her species did...she wasn't too sure about others. In any event...occasionally her tunnels would break into a small den of rabbit babies, and Sesselav herself would ensure their safety. They struggled at first, but she learned about proper pheremones in order to stop the mother and father rabbit from being afraid of her...and soon they'd all be asleep in a corner of her private chambers.
She missed that.
Hasea posed an interesting question, and Sesselav tried to think of an interesting answer. "If it does...I will distract it. You are soft and fleshy, it will cause much harm to you. It will do a lot less damage to myself. We just must hope that when it grows tired it doesn't go after you." The only problem was it was a hunter. It could see which was a better target, and hopefully despite Hasea being a little...flighty in her ways, it would remember the swarm around her, and see Sesselav as an easier target. Sesselav could deal with it...she didn't have a lot of fighting experiences, but she knew that with mammals, the fleshy creatures with bones on the inside, snapping the neck or spine was an instant death. If she had to, she could try to do that. While she was acrobatic, it wasn't really for fighting...but she could try and convert it for that use.
After a few swift kicks and failed leaps, hopefully it would see the folly of its ways and move it. She didn't particularly like the idea of killing it, but...if it was a choice between it and Hasea, and she'd kill the leopard in a heartbeat.
