Joel gives a soft little laugh at the question, wondering how to position it to someone who might not necessarily know all the intricacies of this strange little town he's found himself in. Meeting over a Hydra isn't exactly a normal story, but he rather likes it as theirs.
"There was a... a wild animal loose in the city," he says, figuring that's as close to the truth as he can get without revealing a good number of magical details. Caleb will find out eventually, Joel is sure of that, but he isn't sure he wants to be the one telling him all about it. "I found Spencer near the library just sort of staring at it, so I may have manhandled him into the library for safety, which might not be the most romantic first meeting in the world, but I think things turned out okay."
