"Yep! That's my name, don't wear it out," greeted Nigrum jovially with a grin, getting up from his spot and dusting himself off, "as for our resident darling Squid-Girl, hmm...nope! No can do! She hates me with a passion! Likely, she'd say some passive-aggressive comment to anything I try to say. She'll stay bitter about for a loooooong while."

Saying that with a hum, he looked oddly cheerful despite his words, seeming to enjoy the situation he just portrayed, almost as if looking forward to it. One thing did bother him though. Didn't she seem too scatter-brained during the fight? She looked more lost in thought than compared to how focused she usually is. Hmmm...

An idea flashing into his mind, Nigrum's grin great slightly wider in an unnerving sense, quite literally hopping towards Tyde to get uncomfortably close.

"Likely, it might be better for you to tell her instead. Even if it does come out as the winner rubbing it in her face, it'll come off as courteous enough to appease her. Probably. Might just make her more bitter," admitted Nigrum with a careless shrug, stepping back to provide Tyde more space.

"Mind also doing me a teeeeeeeensy little favor and carrying her back for me? I would, but she hates my guts! And, well..." driftting off, Nigrum's grin slightly faultered, a grimaced look on his face for an instant, before returning back to normal as if it was never there. Raising both his hands to his mouth and biting on the gloves, he yanked his head back, pulling them off to reveal his disfigured, burned hands. "These are a thing. Can't really carry her well with my nerve endings bothering all across the way. That, and I somehow get the feeling she'd prefer you as her knight in shining armor than me."

Saying that with a teasing mirth in his eye, he gingerly placed his gloves back on, leaning back once done to wait for Tyde's reponse. If he didn't agree, Nigrum supposed he could pull out the guilt card. He seemed the type to fall for it.
