[Despite that very, very impressive scolding, which deserves accolades as far as he's concerned...Aster shrieks, upon being lifted. Despite his best efforts to stay calm, he shrieks instinctively and shoots off clouds of pink smoke in a muted attempt to transform into a bat, and when that fails, immediately puts one foot down to try and keep his balance.
...Unfortunately, there aren't many places to put one's feet (though thankfully he's too tall for any dick kickem, at this angle), so after a second of squirming, he just. Dangles. Aster's just powerfully aware of how unable he is to actually escape manhandling should he not want it, all of a sudden, and that's enough to bring out the animal panic in him.]
--sorry! Sorry-- put me down put me down put me down--
