Ambrosia actually paused to think about the answer. To think about it for a long, long while…
"Oh, c'mon. I *know* you are just messing with me!" I said, putting my hands over my chest. "It's literally all in your head."
In response, Ambrosia giggled in her fist.
"And you know that I'm teasing you, but still act this way. This only becomes more amusing each time it happens," she said, without a gram of conscience in sight.
"After you discovered humor, you became a monster, Amby. A destroyer of my self-esteem," I said, grinning broadly. Then I went serious again. "But jokes aside, I want to test my new power now. I'm awake enough for this!"
Amby frowned, clearly not pleased to hear this, but nodded.
"Then I will watch over you. And a Physician. Just in case."
