[he had been distracted by the whole "she devours things" bit, and now she mentioned "form." again, he's reminded of Milla and he's getting the idea that despite how she looks, she's not human.

but before he can question her further, he notices the environment around them. immediately his demeanor changes. although he's still concerned, it's a bit lighter.]

Well that would be a shame. I'd hate to see a lovely and skilled woman like yourself going off the deep end. [and have to be "put down" so to speak, but he doesn't say that.]

But hey, I think we've had enough of this serious talk for now, don't you think? How about we grab that payment and head back? You can tell me more about this over some dinner. [a bit of a joking grin.] You do eat normal "human" food, right?

[he's joking now, but he's kind of serious about this, too. and his methods are a bit...strange. but his main priority was to at least distract her and get her out of this place before she really does lose it to her emotions. if that requires him to look like the odd flirt, so be it. no skin off his back about how she might think of him. but he's also giving her a bit of a "lifeline," too. rather than just leaving her, he's telling her that he'll listen to her problems. he's honestly not sure how to feel about it, but at the very least it's something he should probably be aware of both for himself and for others.]
