[Mia's laughter echoes Wan's for very much the same reasons. She's having far too much of a good time than she has any right to, and she's practically tickled by this little encounter.]
Oh you're finally giving up? [She still can't cease her laughing entirely, but she just smiles rather victoriously up at Wan when he gives the otter penguin those reassuring pats. It actually calms itself down, quieting its struggles and almost going playfully quiet in Mia's arms.
[But then Wan's reassuring pats go from her captured penguin's head to her own. And the expression on Mia's face is one of surprise and disbelief. She can't help but paradoxically smile at it though, completely amused by the "audacity" of it all. In a quite unladylike fashion, she sticks her tongue out at him and raises an eyebrow.]
Well, thank you, my most gracious and benevolent teacher. [She can't wave away his patting of her head, but she could move. But she doesn't.] I'm glad I rose to your expectations.
