In response to his question, Helmut opened her mouth, showing the rows of sharp teeth that lined her mouth, though a few were missing as her baby teeth were falling out to eventually be replaced by the sharper adult fangs. She held the toothy grin for a whiled fore she realized that she was looking at the back of his head, and instead heaved a sheepish sigh, "My Mama said I was too bitey for plushies,.." She explained, sheepish but moping, ducking her head into his neck to hide. "...'mNOTsquirming." She added, while squirming.

... Oh.
Li Shou's brow furrowed, his lips tightening as he considered that quandary. She did eat everything in sight sometimes... But to not have even one plush toy?
The boil wasn't sure why he was feeling bad for her, but somehow he was. It was a sliver of empathy, and it plagued him like a splinter in one's foot.
"S-Stop!" He shouted at her squirming, eager to drop her but unable to out of his desire to reclaim a certain inanimate cat. Thank Jack the dorms were in sight.
Then a thought hit him.
He stopped advancing.
"You... Haven't chewed on Mao-Mao, have you?!"

Helmut's silence probably wasn't reassuring.
"No!"

As warm as his body was from their combined heat, a cold chill ran up his spine.
He was silent as he closed the gap between them and the monster dorms. Then, without warning, he dropped her at the front door.
There was an unexpectedly serious look in his multicolored eyes as he turned to look back at the wendigo. "Produce Mao-Mao. Now."

"Oof!" Helmut yelped as she was unceremoniously dropped. She had hit the ground hard, lacking the grace to try and save herself from the fall, and simply laid there for a moment or two as she listened to his demands.
"FiIiiiiiineeee~" The ghoul whined, rolling onto her belly and beginning a quite literal crawl into the dorms to get the plush in question. It took forever, partially because she was crawling on her belly like a lizard, but also because she was purposely crawling on her bed like a lizard because it would take forever. Sure, he had been nice to her, but she knew she had to take her wins where she could...especially since she was about to give back her only bargaining chip.
When she had gotten to her room, she even spent a moment there, cuddling the plushie.
Then, having spent enough time slacking, she finally brought the plush downstairs, and held it out for Li Shou to take. Mao-mao was still in one piece, but the tip of one ear, and the very tip of his tail, had itty bitty teeth marks on it.
She was hoping he wouldn't notice.

The longer she took, the more impatient Li Shou grew. His foot tapped on the ground, arms folded, huffing and puffing, then grunting and groaning. It came to the point where he convinced himself that she had taken the passed time to barricade herself in her room, and just as he was about to march in and pound at her dorm room door, there she was.
No, there he was.
The boil snatched his plush back from the wendigo and promptly went about examining the cat-like doll.
It only took a few scrutinizing glances to notice the bite marks. Small as they were, she had still chewed on his precious possession.
He clung to the plush as if she might threaten its existence and shot her a hateful glare. "I can't believe you!" He shouted angrily. "Your mama was right! You shouldn't have plushies!"

Helmut flinched, curling her arms in closer to herself in an attempt to look as small as physically possible.
"I'M SORRY!" She screeched, feeling more than just a little guilty over the whole thing. "I didn't mean to! I was asleep and...and when I woke up and realized I moved him away so it wouldn't get worse and..." The tiny ghoul was fretting terribly, her tiny black nails clinking together while she fidgeted. Eventually she sank to the ground, hugging her knees to her chest in her misery.
"I didn't mean to..." Helmut repeated, whimpering.

Li Shou almost felt bad for what he said.
Almost.
He watched her practically melt into a puddle of guilt and misery, and somewhere behind his cold, belittling glance, he knew that it was more likely the ghoul hadn't meant any harm.
That, however, wouldn't matter to him until much later. "Sorry isn't going to fix anything! Sorry won't get rid of the holes in his tail!" The boil yelled. It should feel good to demean someone. It usually did. At that moment, however, it left a sour taste in his mouth, which only made him angrier.
His tail whipped from side to side as he turned towards the demon dorms to make a hasty retreat, eyes fixated on the tiny holes. "I'm going back to my room."

Helmut flinched as he yelled at her again, her ears lowering as she had nothing else to say. The damage had been done, however unintentionally, and she had already apologized; she had no idea how to feel better.
"O-ok..." The tiny ghoul murmured, drawing on the ground with one small black claw. "Sl-sleep well a-and th-thank you...for helping me." Her miserable voice got quieter with each passing word. She hated having to thank him, she really did - but what else could she do? He had done so much for her, and all she had done was chew on his toy and pass out on him.
The wendigo let out another sniffle, and wiped her nose on the back of a torn sleeve.

Li Shou had taken a few strides forward when she thanked him.
His body seized as his oversized ears caught her delicate words, unsure of why anyone would be thanking him right then and there. It made no sense. With everything that happened, he had forgotten about carrying the ghoul all the way here.
The boil didn't look back, however. He couldn't look at her miserable face, for some reason. The mix of emotions Li Shou felt at that moment was bewildering and maddening.
Instead of saying a word back, he darted off towards the dorms and his room.
