[ a spider isn't an INSECT sipp!! now i have to defriend you on plurk!! ]
A robot, then, or -- an animatronic. Spiders don't get that big. They just don't.
[ The stubborn denial seems more like an attempt to convince herself than anything - this monster is right in front of her eyes, and she's racing to make it make sense with the rest of her world. Chiyuki does move an arm rather protectively in front of Marinette as the younger girl continues to shrink away. Not that she'd be able to do anything if it actually tried to bite them, but it's the thought that counts.
No attacks occur, however. The woman, with a disgusted noise, excuses herself, seeming extremely put-off by the whole encounter, and turns to start jogging back in the direction she'd come from. The spider accompanying hesitates, staring at them with an indiscernible expression (that face doesn't tell you much) before scuttling after her. Chiyuki doesn't feel relieved watching them leave, though; she just watches tensely. What the hell just happened? ]
