Oh, thank god, a death threat!! That is so much easier to deal with that what her brain conjured up a second ago. Shaking her head and leaning back and away from the older man, Ochako wrinkles her nose a little and scrutinizes his extended hand with a scowl and a loud sniff.
"Ehhh... S-Sorry, my hands are full...but I'll take your word for it."
Not exactly a lie! Ochako is carrying her groceries in both arms right now, after all. She narrows her eyes though, finally registering his words for what they're worth and pursing her lips thoughtfully.
"I appreciate you being able to, um...help," Hoo boy, that's a loose way she's using that word, ayup. "But what I'm confused about is why seek out me? I don't have anything to offer back...because I'm sure this sudden generosity isn't for free."
He has to want something. It's the only way it makes sense.
