She's somewhat captivated by his description - and just how different this world would be like so long ago, how more oxygen in the air would shape the plant life significantly as well. Her brow creases as she tries to envision a dragonfly of that size, how it would move, the sound it would make. They were already quite fascinating little creatures. Emphasis on little, of course, as all the ones she'd seen so far were rather small. It makes her wonder what other creatures existed back then that still populated his world now; and what the environment would look like, feel like. Adventurous sometimes to a fault, she's certainly tempted.
But, the reality was as he'd stated - it would simply be too dangerous to go alone; and if she made even a small mistake she would be putting herself at great risk. His comments earn a slow, knowing smile from her; as she can recognize the concern behind his words. "Is this your way of saying you would worry about me?" she asks with a slightly teasing lift of her brow.
Once he shifts in his seat she's quick to set her focus back on the foliage, and when he hands her the binoculars she scans around to the spot he's indicated; letting out a small sound of surprise when she sees the crests he'd mentioned. "How interesting - it's rather slight in stature," she comments, her gaze glued to the animal as it moves - it seems curious and almost innocuous. "If I didn't know about the venom I might think it to be far less of a threat than it is, just on size alone." But, based on the row of teeth she can see, there's no doubt this is still very much a predator. "How do they respond to the wardens?"
