Rikki almost looked apologetic in response to Ben's comment. "If it makes you feel any better, a couple of years ago, it wouldn't have made me sick or uncomfortable," she told him. Before the water tentacle, she'd have been a lot more interested and curious than anything else, but now? Well. She could do without them touching her, was all.

She reached for him, taking hold of the back of his shirt to keep from being separated from him again. "Right, let's get out of here. Enough messing about in this stupid house, hopefully we can find the way out of this place this time. I don't want to be here anymore. I've had enough."

She'd had enough the moment she'd woken up in this ridiculous dress, but all the same. Rikki is more than ready to get out of here now.
