Castor makes a disapproving noise from behind zim, but ze can't imagine why. The yellowblood bends just as Pheres asks, and they're eyeing zim like ze're going to bite, which is rude. But they seem like a pretty rude troll overall.

"I don't think they're used to lowbloods," Castor says, as he lifts them.It's only a boost, one ze could've made on zir own, but Castor's always doing stuff like that. Says it's important for Hinnom to make sure ze's keeping zir psionics exercised, even if ze can't use them zimself.

Ze shrugs, and makes the greeting quick: ze turns each cheek, so ze can properly tap each horn with zirs. "Hinnom," ze says, prim, and then ze twists so Castor'll drop zim, more carefully this time. This troll is weird, and ze isn't eager to stay close.

"You yellow?" ze asks. "'cause I'm yellow too!"
