It's startling to realize that this isn't uncomfortable. Awkward at first, yes, but there's a sense of home that can't be extinguished around Newt. The same sense that followed since they'd met, really. For as different as they were, they were in as many ways similar. It was easy to be around Newt and she found she didn't mind-- any of it.

Which is part of the reason her brow shoots up when he goes from I will teach you to if you would like. It felt more hesitant than the earlier discussions of his creatures. Her teeth caught on her lower lip and she listened as he continued before deciding.

"Newt," She started, brows pinching as she pressed a hand to his shoulder when she came closer, "I thought I made my opinions clear a while ago." Did she, she wondered? She'd tried anyway, but expressing herself never came easily and with Newt things were always...

...They were always a piece of work so she breathed out and tried again. "Of course I want to learn about them. All of them," She said deliberately, "but I also want to learn about you. Why else do you think I'd agree to something as crazy as joining you in looking for creatures?" She tries for a bit of humor there, having not forgotten she agreed to join him on a hike through the woods after feeding his creatures. Were it anyone else she never would have agreed.
