He just sighed at first. Tyr was better, but still no. He was surprised she was jumping to names like that so quickly. She might even guess it. Maybe. Probably not. But maybe.
At least she was getting reactions out of him. That helped.
"I don't suppose you're named after some martial artist." She frowned and shook her head, already answering her own question. "Not unless your parents were psychic. Nevermind." She drummed her fingers against her thigh, lips pursing together as she tried to figure something out. A sigh was better than a scowl, so it had to be closer, right?
"Okay, question for you. Are you named after someone else? Someone public, not a family member?"
"Alright, named after someone good enough for you to be proud of." She eyed the fabricater with a soft, thoughtful humm before using it to buy some time and think. She worked on fabricating a box made of the pod lid material that would hold the ring and fit in her pocket, not bulge out obviously like trying to cram three lipstick tubes in an opening the size of her thumb.
"I'm guessing you were named after a fighter? Or a name that means something like that." She snorted on a small laugh.
"But obviously not something like Evan. Too simple?"
She looks over her shoulder to check his response, not expecting words at this point. She wasn't sure why he chose not to, but it was his choice.
"Hmmm...Susanoo?" She knew martial arts when she saw it due to movies growing up, but she couldn't have identified what type he used or what culture it was from. So she was winging it.
"Still a no." She pursed her lips together, fingers drumming against the side of oner of her thighs.
"Alright, I'm going to keep guessing," she WAS going to figure it out. It was a matter of principle now. Sabrina held up the red ring without the box as she continued speaking.
"But I would like you to let me know if you sense anything from this. Anything at all." It had felt like the energy was an explosive made of violence to her. Maybe he was a metahuman, too?
"I'm trying to keep us from being a bigger beacon of trouble....Kintaro?" Another name to try at the end.
He sighed and rolled his eyes, but unfolded his arms, taking off the glove of his right hand and holding it out for the ring. His expression however said her guess was still a swing and a miss!
Looks like she had a double miss. Sabrina debated whether she should go back to more mythological names as she carefully placed the ring in his hand to see if her silent comrade could feel anything off of it.
A small shake of his head, though it could be for the name or the ring. He'd hold the ring up, looking through it, feeling it's weight in his hand but it didn't speak to him or anything like that. Far as he could tell, it was a ring.
"Thank you." Sabrina nodded as she took the ring back and placed it within the box. "Honestly, I can't unless I focus on it, but who knows what kinds of things aliens can do." She shrugged a little in apology as she slipped the box away.
She cycled through a few more guesses, rotating the box in her hand, rolling it between her fingers as she mused over possibilities. Names like Alexander, or David. Still determined to figure this out now that she had a challenge. It was a nice little distraction from teh fact they were out in the middle of nowhere, space.
