She watched the one on her hand, not looking it as if she were going to test out this theory, but wondering why West did it so willingly, and how he enjoyed it.

The critter went into the jar, and the ants crawling around went ignored in favor of finding something that might not bite back. "Maybe the squishy ones would have more flavor, all that juice." It was probably like candy in totally gross way. She made a face at the thought.

"You do this for all things West? Find out what's safe and what's not?" Or in this unfortunate instance, what's edible and inedible. She still thought they all were the latter.

Aspen had yet to see the draw to eating insect either. But, she wasn't judging. If West wanted to eat bugs, then he could eat bugs. She just wanted to ensure safe and responsible consumption of Arthropods.

She also couldn't debate the first year on flavor and texture of certain insects. It did make her smile though, and her idea had some sense to it. "You'll have to ask him about the... squishy one. I'm sure he'll have data on the topic." Like, sure sure.

That last question gave Aspen a pause. She poked around the bush, digging out a centipede-looking critter. "Someone has to," she finally answered emotionless and quietly.
