[ she looks back down at blackjack with a soft gasp, his large eyes mirrored in her own. her hands hover near fate's, clearly itching to reach out and touch... instead, she holds one finger out tentatively towards him. ]
[Blackjack flicks out his tongue curiously at the finger extended. Carefully, Twisted Fate presses his hand close to Olivia's, which does encourage the lizard to climb into her hand.]
Still not totally sure what I'm doin', but he seems pretty friendly so far. Kind of a relief.
[ she barely manages to stifle a squeal as the lizard climbs into her hand. it is a feeling unlike anything she's ever felt before, eliciting goosebumps all along her arms, a rush of thrill down her spine. ]
Oh, you're doing marvelous, I'm sure. [ without fear, she leans forward, gently bumping her nose against the lizard's snout. ]
[ olivia jerks back out of reflex, her hands flying up about to tear him right off... but fortunately her mind processes it in time, and thus her hands merely hover uncertainly in the air. ]
H-Have I upset him?? [ words half-muffled thanks to lizard on face... ]

What does he like to eat?
no subject
Bugs, mostly. Fortunately, there's always plenty 'round for that. He's supposed to get bigger eventually.
[Abruptly, Blackjack leaps from Olivia's hand and sticks to her face! Not maliciously, but definitely curious.]

Nah, I think he likes you just fine.
You want me to take him off of you?
