For as ready as she was to comment on his change in...wardrobe, she really had not prepared any remarks in the event that it was turned around in kind. In no small part because she has been avoiding thinking about that in particular, instead having to make excuses to those who did not know her as well. Writing it off as Horizon business is easy enough in that regard.

"Mmmmmm," she hums to buy a little time.

"I have been...curious! As to what ears feel like. That was probably it." She snaps her fingers like she had an epiphany, her tail starting to twitch anxiously behind her. "They are very strange, for the record. I can say with confidence that horns are much better."

Realistically they are not.
