[Mostly, yes, but her voice dips just slightly too much on those words, and there's the crack. Timekeeper is certainly curious, certainly a little excited to be presented with a challenge so new and unique, but also wondering if she's perhaps come to rely on her chronokinesis too much. Losing most of its function so suddenly is frustrating at best, and she's not terribly happy with being pulled from her preoccupations by some upstart godling, either. Perhaps this beast should look more closely at its bites before it tries to chew, is what she wants to say about it, but she'll bite her own tongue for now. She didn't work her way from mortal cookiehood to the status of a veritable demigod for nothing, and she believes the day for it will come even if she has to make it so herself.
So instead, she smiles as always, an emotional mask at its finest, picks up her scissors, and takes a few steps away.]
Ah, well. That is hardly my only skill, so perhaps it's high time I exercised others again! Oh, and one thing...
[She glances back towards Livio, smile widening.]
Please do not tell the other cookies of me. They wouldn't know who I am anyway! And I would much prefer to observe them myself first.
