Again.

She can't take her eyes off of him, focused intently on every expression that crosses his face. She changes up her speed and movements now and then, wanting to see what gets the biggest reaction, learning what he seems to like best.

She does notice something from the corner of her eye, however. A slow crawling mass in her peripheral. It takes her a moment in the growing darkness to recognize the shape of the scorpion that's crawled out from the cluster of rocks, but not quite as long to shift her weight to her knee and use her free hand to brush it away. It snaps at the air as the flick of her wrist sends it airborne, hopefully before Gene notices.
