Ordinarily, her appearance wasn't something she was particularly precious about but his words incensed her instantly. "I've put on just the right amount of weight!" she retorted very shrilly, flushing with both anger and embarrassment that she had taken the bait so readily. It wasn't actually a lot of weight, it was barely visible on her scrawny frame, but she was quite content to keep it. Her issue was more with his attitude than what he'd actually said. She could think of no other reason he might be in a sour mood than the sleeping arrangements and how dare he find the prospect of sharing a bed with her unpleasant! She was allowed to be disgruntled because obviously she had to share with him and who wouldn't find that a blight on their mood? She had the short straw, not him!
Tig composed herself a little better and regarded him haughtily, regretting as she did that she had not situated herself in the middle of the bed. "You shall have to find somewhere else to sleep, like a proper gentleman." She tried to discreetly wriggle to a more central point in the bed.
