I'll take the tiny version!

[Javik had come to the station after hearing technology worked there, only to find it was worse than what he'd been stuck with back on the Normandy. He'd walked a long way for very little reward, apparently, and resigned himself to resting here for a day or two before leaving. Cobwebs and balls of dust were usually entirely ignored by him, but one that was glowing was hard to pass. Another unique quirk of the landscape, he guessed, four eyes watching the little creature dart to and fro.

When she spoke, he squinted at her, taking a moment to decide that the spider really had just talked. He'd be less inclined to believe it if he hadn't been dragged out of the middle of a firefight by imps and brought here in the first place. He took another step closer, inclining his head towards the arachnid.]

Is there something in particular about it that I should find aesthetically pleasing?

[greatwhitespider]

[The spider hangs at around the same level as the middle pair of Javik's eyes. She doesn't sway much in air currents, as if she weighs rather more than an animal this size should.]

Beauty lies in the perfection of function. Webs gather all that I could need. Do not touch!

[A long-legged cranefly has gotten caught in the strands. The little spider vanishes in an orb of white light and reappears near it. She starts chewing through its abdomen with appreciative noises.]

Ahhh, so tender in the center.

[notavirtue]

[There were spiders where he came from, so he certainly had no intention of touching the web. Even if it was smaller than what he'd known, it was still glowing. That was reason enough to keep his hands at his sides.

Javik blinked twice when she disappeared, though he found her again quickly as she hadn't gone far. Watching the tiny spider eat reminded him of how little he'd eaten since coming here. He didn't trust the food.]

You are native to this world, are you not? You seem to find your prey appetizing.

[greatwhitespider]

[The Grand Elusa makes a chittering trill.]

I am native to no world, yet all I have visited have meat for me. Chitin or living stone or armor or poison, it makes for little difference.

[notavirtue]

Most do not consider armor or poison to be meat, spider. At the very least you will not go hungry wherever you go.

[He crossed his arms over his chest, apparently quite content to watch a glowing spider go about her business. Javik wasn't one for conversation most days, but eventually his curiosity got the better of him.]

Yet you are very small for something that eats so much.
