Why a horned skull? Is that supposed to be cool?

[ Nothing you say ever makes sense either, Ed. She proceeds to walk and crawl about the place to check every nook and cranny for hidden treasures maybe. ]

Flowers would be better.

[ Way to act like you're 8 years old, Amber. Ed, the Designated Adult of the treehouse, stands and watches her with his arms crossed. He does like it when people appreciate his handiwork, but a treehouse isn't anything that special to him. ]

I don't know much about gardening. [ Granted, he could ask Ino, but flowers don't keep his interest at the moment. Ino might be moving some of her potted plants into the tree fort soon, anyway. ] And horned skulls are cool. It's an uncontested fact that they're badass.

[ Hey, who built a tree house in the first place? She also goes to where Ed stood when he talked to her on the ground, wanting to see the view from where he was then. ]

Why? Because it shows that you're capable of hunting horned animals?

[ Her words are challenging, maybe, but her tone is only curious. ]

No. [ He wonders how much of this relates to his embarrassing failure with the harpies... That was a special case. Ed is capable of hunting animals, but he doesn't believe in bringing their remains back like some of trophy. ]

I was planning to sculpt them out of metal.

[ Ah, yes, his little breakdown. That time when he almost threw up all over their shoes even after that terrifying display of power with the spikes. Fortunately, that episode is far from her mind now. She really only wants to play in a treehouse. ]

But what does that prove?

[equivalences]

That I have badass taste! What else? [ THERE'S REALLY NO DEEP MEANING TO THIS. ]

Spikes, skulls and horns really get the blood pumping!

[retry]

[ Still unimpressed . . . ]

Why would you want your blood pumping when you're sitting in a treehouse?
