When Tabitha rose from the shadow of her father's shadow, she would no longer be in her monstrous spider form, but instead would be in her humanoid form, looking like a teenage woman clad in an all blood red kimono, with her straight, jet black hair draped over her eyes like the Grudge. Her back was slumped over and her arms dangled lifelessly, yet her white eye gleamed in the darkness similarly to how Thanytoz's red eyes did, inspecting the area. "... Sweet. I like the digs, dad." She'd already been here before; or, rather, been below here when she was fighting that snake, Apophis, but had never actually been up to the sanctuary, itself. With the Dark Obelisk eternally generating dark energy below her, and the Apophis as her little pet, Tabitha knew already that she was going to love it here. "Please don't tell me we have to do another ritual or whatever. I'm kinda tired." At least, tired of being so formal. She enjoyed looking formal, but really hated acting the part. She was always a really chill and laid back person, until she got excited, and the whole 'formal' persona was just not chill enough for her. She would be able to pull through one more if necessary, simply for her father, but... She wasn't looking forward to another one. She didn't see how they did this type of stuff all day, honestly.

Tabitha remained predominately motionless, with a deadpan expression on her face, still hunched over and with her arms drooped down carelessly, even with her father's petting. It seemed like this was just her demeanor, and also that she was tired. "Yeah, yeah, I got it, I got it..." she said, simply ready to be done with it all. She knew how important it was and wasn't downplaying it, but damn, it was just a lot. She was actually more itching to play with the dead than anything, and already had some sick and twisted things thought up for what she was going to do with her army of undead and army of machines... Or maybe, undead machines. Yeah. That sounded fun. "I'll come over to the Hotel if I have any problems, or whatever." She didn't mean to sound dismissive, but this was being drawn out longer than she would have liked. Then again, she drew things out longer than they should with her slacking off, so she had no real right to complain. And yet, she still felt like it. She was still a teen, after all. Her father really did talk a lot when he was passionate about something. "Is that everything, Pops?"

"Love you too, Dad," Tabitha would say, cracking a smile as a sign of affection after being kissed on the forehead one more time. Her father was affectionate, sometimes a little overly affectionate, but considering the circumstances of how he was raised, she understood why. Better to be overly affectionate than to be under affectionate. That's the type of life he came from and it was clear that he just didn't want her to feel the same way. Even though she understood that, she'd let him know if it got too much.

Tabitha stood motionless for a while after Thanytoz disappeared, waiting patiently. When she was absolutely certain that the coast was clear, she would smirk. "Sweet." She had the whole Cryptic Sanctuary to herself to do whatever she wanted with it, as well as the whole cemetery... And was in the Lawless Land, so basically everything was free game and there were no rules. "Gonna go fuck with some n00bs." Naturally, that was the first thing on her list; to have some fun with the undead, and maybe some of the roughnecks that roamed the Lawless Lands. Then, maybe pimp out her dark shrine. Tabitha had big plans... Big, big plans. The Lawless Land was like one big party for everyone who didn't want to follow any rules, and she could be as reckless as she wanted without having to worry about fucking up the upholstery, or hurting Tina or something. She would turn around immediately and start walking, until the haze covered her completely and she was nowhere to be found.
