The alchemist couldn't say that he was surprised by the Shifters un-want for help, she had already established herself as a tough individual, which was a personality trait of the shifter that he found to be rather.. Endearing, if nothing else. A creature that chooses to play it tough and come out on top, in spite of her battle scars and shortcomings, is inspiring. At least a little.

"I'm glad." He continues, taking back the glass bottle and squeezing the lid back into the top. "I was honestly afraid it wasn't going to be as strong as I had hoped, so I concentrated the mix somewhat. You may have been able to taste it, though given the taste I wouldn't be surprised if you had completely blocked it out." Although he doesn't chuckle with this, he has an almost humorous tone to his voice. "The side effects shouldn't be too drastically altered, if anything you might just find it a little harder to avoid tentative thought. But you should be fine." 

Danico reaches into his satchel and pulls out his notebook, flipping through to a page on the latter half of the pad. "So, first off, have you experienced any limpness in your limbs upon waking of the morning? That is a side effect common among Tortriles leaves." He jots down a little something before going over the next question.

She wondered if he was trying to humour her when he mentioned the possibility of tasting the difference in the potion. Then again, he didn't seem like the type to crack jokes, it was something she noticed despite his sadistic nature. However, the alchemist did seem to enjoy her misery towards having to drink the vial concoction, annoying Toula immensely but was forced to keep her temper under control. "I'll deal with it." Was her simple reply.

When he began questioning her, a raised brow would have been confirmation enough that she had not experienced such side effect. It was something she would have noticed immediately and was grateful to have avoid it completely. "No I have not. Though I think that is something you should warn me about." Toula was growing irritated towards this man. 

"I do have a question though." She began before he had the chance to continue questioning her. She took a couple strides towards the alchemist until she was only a foot from him, the corner of her lips twitched into a smirk as she thought of the question she planned to ask. "How did you become like this?" She questioned before tilting her head slightly to the right. "Your personality, your work, what made you this way?"
Lilli
"Mhm, good." He confirmed, writing down her answer. "I hadn't actually thought you would have experienced it, if the potion was made correctly, which I'm certain it was at this point, then you shouldn't experience it." He continues writing down in his little notepad, recording a few more observations about Toula- not just from the potion and the result, but her as well. He was admittedly intrigued by the girl as a character. Shifters are such interesting creatures. She had, in the very least, proven to be more than just a simple animal, beyond his initial expectations.

"Hm?" He utters as she mentions having a question, raising his head to look at the shifter. He couldn't help but tilt his head slightly at the question itself, certainly taken off guard by it's content and brevity, or lack thereof. Sure, he had figured she would be interested, hell most people would, but not many have the nerve or guts to ask. "What makes you curious?" He replies with his own question, zeroing his eyes into the shifters own with a glare. "Not many have the nerve to ask. Hell, most would rather see me and my line of work be burnt at the stake." He finishes writing down in his book before closing and returning it to his satchel. 

Genuinely curious as to *Why* She want's to know, he asked once more, "Why *Do* You want to know?" This time with more emphasis on the *Why* Aspect.

"And I thought you would understand by now that I'm not like many others." She began as her eyes studied his face, trying to gather some reading of his emotions or possible thought. She didn't fear this man, she knew how hard it was to capture a shifter, she had been too careless when she fell into his trap, so she assumed he would kill her whilst she was still of use to him. "Your work intrigues so I'd rather not watch you or it burn. Cecilia may think otherwise but I doubt we have to worry about her opinion on the whole situation." 

Why did his work interest her the way it did and why was she so curious about this Alchemist? "I want to know because I don't know anything about you, let alone your name." She pressed her lips together, thinking about what she was to say next. She needed to be careful with how she worded her reply, she knew she was close to stepping boundaries by his glare. "I'm an open book to you and not many are lucky enough to experience such. I only find it fair that, after all the questions you've asked me, I'm allowed to ask some of my own."
