She arched an eyebrow, but didn't back away. If he was who she thought he was...well, perhaps it was only to be expected that he'd inherited some of her distaste for questions.
Should she pry further? Even if he turned out to be her progeny, did it even matter? It wasn't as though she was the particularly maternal type, which was exactly why she'd parted with her spawn as soon as possible. Additionally, he might hold some resentment towards her for abandoning him, and she despised drama. Everything was pointing for her to leave, and yet, even so...something compelled her to stay.
She felt sick. Was she experiencing maternal instinct? The Rani, the second most wanted criminal in the world, feeling sentimental? What was this? It was so unlike her she almost wanted him to suffer a spontaneous heart attack just so she didn't have to deal with him.
This was out of character. She ignored it, and focused on the matter at hand, pushing her lapse in judgement to the side. She opened her mouth to give a fake apology so she could leave, but then she froze.
Was that -
Artron energy?
How was that possible? Clearly, he'd travelled through time, but to her knowledge, Earth didn't have that kind of technology in the 21st Century. Had something gone wrong with the Fobwatch? Was it just residual energy? Was she imagining things?
She hadn't felt so out of sorts since the last time she'd seen him, when he'd been significantly smaller. She shook herself out of her thoughts once more, and gave him an expression of appeasement so as to leave as soon as possible. Dallying here would only make this strange feeling in her stomach worse.
"I meant no offense. It simply...looked familiar."
