I was a fucking idiot. [Who rolled like shit. She coughs a little more, flinching in the grip, but she doesn't try to pull away.] Me, Cloud and Aerith — after we woke up we went to the swamp. It's on fire. And there was a...oh my god...
[Maybe Karlach has already heard by this point that would be great actually but Camille is still reeling. She only reports on crime that's different from pulling up the body parts.]
[no they had a whole conversation while cloud was just awkwardly holding this hand. it was great
anyway, she scoops camille up carefully, bridal style, and starts stomping her way over to the mortuary because she knows there are at least blankets there.]
Water, too. [FUSSES. at least she's really warm. maybe more than usual, little flickers of flame in her hair.]
Thanks. I'll take that, even if you're a bit loopy. [gentle teasing.] I'm not leaving you alone to cough up a lung. Come on. Mama K will sit with you a bit, warm you up.

Tonight though, she lets herself curl towards that piston-powered heat. The flash of light grabs her, maybe it's a star?
But it's in her hair.]
How are you doing that?
no subject
What? [???] Doing wh -- oh. Godsdamnit, is my hair setting off again?
[aaaaaaa]
It doesn't hurt, right?

[She feels a little woozy. Shaken by the discovery of course, but lightheaded from the smoke. It's probably why she murmurs something so stupid.]
