Benicia snarled at him, although she had to admit that she was feeling very paranoid, seeing him come out of the dark of the cave just like that. Instead of apologizing like he usually would, though, Spider said, "Benicia, I have to tell you something." She blinked, surprised. He always called her Nissi, after all.
