You creep over to the struggling shrunken man and, before he can react, quickly snatching him up, grabbing him in your giant hands, to no resistance due to his size. "Gotcha!" You laugh as Valentin pouts, upset at having been found so soon and so easily, "Hey, no fair!" He admonishes, "This house isn't easy to navigate at this size. Couldn't you have given us more of a head start?"
You chuckle as you hold the squirming man in your grip, "Lighten up, no one else had any trouble. You should've picked a better place to hide." Valentin grumbles, crossing his arms, "That's dumb. I mean, there's no places to hide, and this whole house stinks." You chuckle, "You should've thought about that before you decided to shrink."
Valentin groans, throwing his head back in exasperation at your casualness, "Well, can you bring me back to normal size again? It's not really as fun now as it was." He says, sounding weary. The novelty must've worn off, for him at least, or maybe he's still just upset at losing the game early.
"Not until the game is over." You tease, still holding him in your hand, even as he tries to struggle free. "Couldn't you let me down at least? Your grip is a little tight..." He pleads, trying to pry your fingers off of his diminutive body. "Besides, you have to find the others, don't you?" That was true, your other friends were still hiding, but still, you wondered if you shouldn't have a bit of 'fun' with Valentin before then?
"Hmmm..." You think, tapping your chin, "I could... but still..." There's a mischievous glint in your eye that doesn't raise the shrunken man's spirits. "There's the thing about the 'orders' here." Valentin blanches, "I was hoping you had forgotten that..." He sighs, "Well, what do you want me to do?" He asks, sounding very reluctant and nervous. You snicker at his trepidation, he really is pathetic like this, it's almost cute.
