"Typical," is her response. Her arms are crossed; she surveys him with an absence of fear. Indeed, she's fully committed to this decision to prioritize irritation over fear; she positively radiates it.
"It's a dreadfully poor showing from you, you know, Bartimaeus. I make a great many very good points, and your response? Is to threaten to eat me and then run away. Because you haven't got any actual good answers." And then, with a shake of her head - "It's stupid. It's all stupid, you know. We ought to be working together, but instead you're too up your own arse with hating me and deciding that, oh, a human could never possibly do anything for you, oh, Kitty Jones, she's a wicked little monster who's too pathetic and weak to ever even help."
That's a rather lengthy speech, and yet Kitty is a talented young woman; she delivers it rapid-fire enough that it's finished before Bartimaeus has even fully risen.
