[div style="max-width: 600px; text-align: justify; font-family: arial; font-size: 9pt;"]her enjoyment of all things sarcastic grants melantha the ability to ignore the primal fear inspired by the sight of silentgrave. in fact, she barely even notices, as she practically buzzes with a plethora of snarky phrases to use in conversational banter. the only time she is even mildly interested in exchanging words with these people is when she can drag or be dragged. life is more fun that way. plus, there is no danger of losing friends to her bad jokes when she has no friends to begin with. had melantha not already come to terms with the probability that she would spend the rest of her time in snowbound friendless and loveless, she might have been hurt by killua's reaction to her teasing. but the words did not sting, nor did they surprise her in the slightest. in fact, it only fosters a greater love for giving others a hard time. the young mountain lioness deadpans in the face of killua's outburst, gazing at him with a soulless, blank stare. it took everything within her to resist the urge to burst out laughing. "bite me, candy boy," she replies tauntingly after a long pause, offering the serval a challenging arch of a nonexistent brow. mel really cannot resist an opportunity when it presents itself. she is not bothered by the accusation of being a newb. of course she is. there's nothing to be ashamed of.
melantha then fixes her gaze upon the terrifyingly strange beast at the border. its response amuses her. defending it? sure, perhaps her actions could be interpreted in such a way. in reality, all the puma did was take advantage of an opportunity to tease someone she (sort of) respects. odd way to show it, huh? "alas, it is my nature as a true gentlelady to defend the honor of the innocent," replies the female dramatically, bowing to emphasize her words. when one creates a sarcastic persona, they commit to it. nothing is out of the question. a faint smile flickers across her typically blank visage before she sobers. "my name is melantha. welcome to snowbound."
