Will chuckled, amused yet understanding. Maybe it was a little mean of him to just drop that bombshell, but... well, how exactly do you say that gently? "Yeah, no, I'm not making that up. It was a defense mechanism--the more fear he could sense, the quicker the limb lashed out."

He decided to sit down at that table, he came here to eat after all. He won't actually do that yet, putting his food in front of him and looking up at the lizard man. "I guess I should back up a little and explain that in my world, there are... well, creatures that live under the radar. I didn't know about it either, until Magnus explained things to me. It was just as shocking and unbelievable to me... but well, I can't exactly deny things that are right in front of my eyes."

A slight pause. "Anyway, it matched the evidence perfectly. A limb like that would make a small, circular penetration wound, its teeth were sharp enough to cut through bone, and it would create multi-directional blood spatters. I don't think the cops ever figured it out, they probably pinned it on the wrong guy. At least I think he was a gang member or something, it's probably better he's off the street than some other, totally innocent guy."
