"Hey, calm down. You just need to relax." She says, patting at the air in front of her. Then she takes a step closer! What the heck is she trying to do? Your tentacles thrash around as you struggle to stop them from simply shooting out to wrap her up. Either she doesn't notice or she doesn't care as she get even closer, intentionally putting herself with easy reach. She looks up, scanning around the writhing mass until she finds an eye stalk, then she locks on, stepping right up to it.
Your tentacles slowly go still as she stares at you. You gaze right back, something in her expression calming you down.
"Look. You saved me." She says simply, casting a quick glance back at the gloomy nightmare of forest. "But I need to get out of here. We need to get out of here. Can you do that?"
You stare back for a moment. A few of your tentacles twitch aimlessly, but for the most part you simply sit there, the bulk of your body almost surrounding her.
"Um..." you start to say something in a chorus of mouths, then snap them all shut. It's an unsettling sound and she glances around uneasily. You pick one, not sure which one it is, and say, "Um, okay. You got a plan?"
She bursts out laughing. "No! What? You're the tentacle monster, can't you, I dunno," she waves her hands around, "teleport us back home or something?"
