[He's about to say he knows better than to approach a snake quickly, but -- he doesn't, actually. He nods instead, moving his hand toward the large creature with his fingers together. No need for him to mistake them for -- food, or something.
While he moves his hand, he continues to talk to Humpty.]
So, was our conversation as enlightening as you hoped?
[For as intensely as the python might watch Trevor he is used to being handled, and the man isn't making any moves to provoke him. So Crack sticks out a little, bringing his head a bit closer under Trevor's hand.
Humpty watches the exchange, sitting still to allow the two a moment.]
It certainly gave me more ideas than I had... Thank you.
[He hums thoughtfully under his breath, head tilting.]
It was cold where I lived too, but I never went south. I suppose there could have been more there, but vampires avoided that area because it was too warm
There's quite a few reasons, but either way I've never been able to easily travel outside the north myself.
[Unless his Master had wanted him to, of course. But even his homes that had been more towards the south had been abandoned many years back as the climate changed.]
[But ... hey, they have a lot in common. He pauses, glancing off into the park.]
I should -- probably leave you to it, huh? You can let me know how things go with your fanged friend, and if you really do want someone to spot for you, I could probably cover you.

[Once the snake brings his head closer, Trevor lets his hand settle carefully on top and rubs large, rough fingers against the scales of the creature.
An odd sensation.]
The snakes I've seen have always been a lot smaller than this fellow.
no subject
Is that so? He's the only one I've ever seen. When he was given to me I was told that most of them are extinct.

[He pauses.]
It's too cold for them in most parts of Wallachia, but there were smaller stakes by the river when I was younger.
[He continues the petting.]

[Which makes him think of something that had come up with Nines.]
Haven't even seen the ocean properly, actually.
no subject
I hadn't either until I came here. Really I hadn't even been around many large bodies of water that weren't frozen.

You're right, and I shouldn't take up any more of your time. But thank you again, really.
no subject
I'm still shocked that I helped, but -- like I said, don't hesitate to contact me if you need to.
