[Eda starts to say something and offer them an arm, but trails off. One ear twitches slightly and she's turning to the door before it even opens.
There are several security guards in the doorway, and by a slight stroke of bad luck they're all humans who look at the very least startled by the owlbear. Eda takes a step towards them, not quite directly in front of Rue, but still notably putting herself between them. She doesn't necessarily trust the guards not to do something stupid.]
Hey, guys. Gym's all yours, we're just on our way out.
[One of the guards chooses to ignore her comment and speak up.] We heard there was something--
[Eda cuts them off before they can make a poor choice of words like dangerous.] You heard there was someone new and pretty and you just couldn't decide who got to show 'em around? Well, sorry boys. You all lose, I've got this.
[For the first time Eda's tone does take on a level of absolutely icy false politeness. Though she's not exactly subtle about that either.
Nor can she actually seem to keep up the act. Most of the guards are people she's normally on fine terms with, and they have the decency to look awkward. But she spots one who she recognizes from pulling a taser on her the first time he saw her as a harpy. Despite the fact she was sitting in an alley crying at the time.
As she makes eye contact with him her ears fold back and she growls just loudly enough to be audible. The combination is more reminiscent of a dog than a bird. She's a little too satisfied when he takes a small step back.]
