Terry strides right up to the cowering creature and fearlessly reaches out to stroke one hand along a tentacle. It quivers under her touch, at first almost twitching away, but then relaxing and going still. "Hmmm, so big and long!" She murmurs, impressed.
"Terry!" snaps Harmony. But she quails at the thought of getting any closer. "Teresa!" She hisses instead.
Terry shoots a dark look back at her teacher then turns back to face the monster.
"Keith, right?" She says softly, looking up at the intimidating tangle of writhing limbs. The tentacle under her hand begins to tremble, the rest of them beginning to thrash around restlessly. "I'm Terry. Nice to meet you." She trails her fingers along its firm fuzzy flesh. It's quite thick, almost as thick as her leg, and it's very warm. The touch makes her skin tingle and she feels a flush rising all over her body.
"Y-Yes..." it responds in that odd chorus, the voices echoing from all over its body. "Terry... I..."
"Terry, get away from that thing before it attacks you again! Please!" Harmony yells, trying not to let her growing concern show in her voice.
Terry simply stares up at the tentacled behemoth, quite distracted by the strange tingling spreading over her.
"You should probably listen to her..." Keith says softly. But he doesn't back away. More tentacles extend tentatively outwards, starting to surround the young woman. Terry slowly shakes her head, putting her palm down flat on the shuddering limb and rubbing gently along its length.
"No..." She responds. "No! I... I trust him. This is different than before, I can feel it."
"Terry!" Harmony barks in disbelief. "This is your last warning!"
