Monke and the Other Communities (The Arachnes - 3)

We both entered the hut where we were supposed to have our 'important' discussion. Now, when I say "important," I mean the basics: Is there anything I could do to better accommodate them, such as how they were living in my dungeon, or perhaps what they would like to contribute to my dungeon for better accommodations?

Not the 'looking at my face like the world was ending' face I was getting from the leader of the arachnes.

"So," I began as I was provided a seat, where I promptly sat my ass on, while Aratella sat across me on a couch that was specifically made for an arachne's unique biology, "First of all, why are you looking at me like that?"

I asked the arachne, who in turn grimaced at my question. She hesitatingly opened her mouth, then closed it right back. A few moments of silence passed, with me looking at her with curious eyes. Aratella, meanwhile, kept on opening and closing her mouth, no sound coming out of it every time she did so.
