"Odette?" his voice cracked a bit in worry and he gently nudged her.
She jolted back to life with a startled gasp. Her abrupt inhale sent a wave of aches through her abdomen, and she rolled over onto her side to grab at her stomach, coughing and grimacing as she fruitlessly tried to massage the pain away.
"Yeah," she replied, her voice breaking over a wince. "I'm up. I'm up."
Odette wasn't sure how long she'd been unconscious. Judging by how little had changed when her eyes snapped open again, it probably wasn't more than a couple of minutes at most. This new body of hers just would not go down with a whole lot of kicking, screaming, and spikes of adrenaline. Even her glasses had managed to make it through with nothing more than a couple of dirt and blood splatters.
As she blinked the unconsciousness out of her eyes, she was initially happy to see that the fire had fizzled out to mere embers. She was even more happy to see Koa standing over her, and she couldn't help but smile, even if it only lasted a second.
"Hey, Koa," she said thinly. She hated how raspy she sounded, and coughed against a tickle in her throat. She then reached up and rubbed at her neck, cringing through it. "Is this the worst possible time to say that you look like hell?" The attempt at being lighthearted might have missed entirely, but she was far too exhausted and in far too much discomfort to care.
She turned her head and caught sight of the oran berry that was laying next to her. She gestured to it shyly, before looking back up at Koa. "Is...that for me?" she asked. When she got the approval, she grabbed it by its stem with a shaky hand and began to gnaw into it as if it were an apple. Gods, she would never take oran juice for granted ever again. It felt so good going down her throat. It might have been the best meal she'd had since she got to Forlas.
"You’re my hero right now. Holy fuck," she sighed.
Her pain immediately started to fade away, just enough for her to gain the strength to push herself up to sit. She still winced, and Jawile still flexed around as if trying to realign themselves, but it was a step in the right direction, compared to where she'd been just seconds before. Now that she was more awake, she was able to give the young electrike a better once over, and her brows knit together in concern.
"Jesus fucking...we need to," she grimaced and exhaled shakily as she adjusted her sitting position, "get you to Drungfields." As she spoke, she perked up and began to look around at the rest of their squad. Taking a mental headcount of everyone who had shown up. Everyone was there. Everyone was awake.
Everyone needed to go to Drungfield's. Except...
Wes. He was different now. Much different. Standing over Seth, for a moment, she almost couldn't tell them apart. But...at least he was coherent now.
Forcing another breath into her lungs, she peered back at Koa with a less intense look on her face. "I know it's a dumb question, but are you okay? For the most part?"
