[ Sheena shakes her head in disbelief. Wood. Fire. Normally, the two don't mix well, so she's more than surprised that he's still standing there all right. ]

So did I. You're sure you're all right?

[ Not that she doubts him, but she's still in shock by what just happened.

She looks down at her hands and the parts of her body that she can see for a moment. She gives a small shake of her head.]

Not in the way you'd think. It kind of tingles--but it doesn't stop. You know what I mean? Almost like an itch that just won't stop.

How about you? Do you hurt anywhere?

[cahooted]

I think? I mean, as 'all right' as I can be, considering?

[He hasn't forgotten all the suffering. All the pain. All the nausea and coughing and blood. Still, he's just as surprised at the outcome here because yeah, that should be impossible?]

I... yeah. I think I know what you mean, sort of. It doesn't tingle, but I feel something?

[His vines move back and forth. It's so novel, so fascinating.]

I feel good. In fact, I feel really great? I'm warm and not freezing, which is what warm implies, I know, it's just... I feel really good?

[ninjainviolet]

Yeah, I know what you mean.

[ She looks down at herself, remembering the past few days. She hadn't expected this outcome--even with House's declaration. Not surprisingly, there's got to be something she's missing. ]

Hard to put into words, isn't it? More..."uncomfortable"? But even that really doesn't come close. [ She shakes her head. ] But I can deal with it, you know? Like ignoring an itch.

[ She smiles as she watches his wines move. ]

Despite shooting off flames, I feel pretty good, too. I can't remember the last time I was warm here. I mean, really warm. [ She wriggles her fingers easily. ] It's like the first time all over again.

[ She tilts her head. ]

If we're warm, do you think the others are, too?

[cahooted]

Sorry to hear that. But I'm glad it's just uncomfortable and not worse. Man, they did quite a number on us...

[He should probably be more horrified about this. Should he be more horrified about this? For some reason it's really hard to be. He's just so happy about not being cold and he really likes his vines.]

I know what you mean. I'm not sure what I like better, being warm or not being in pain. Both at the same time is just incredible?

[He looks around.]

I really hope they are. After that room I really think we all deserve it.
