[well

she stoops to roll up her pant leg, revealing that her leg below the knee is pitch black with a sheen, and a hole right through the middle like the flesh and muscle wrap about the tibia and fibula separately.

It's not really pretty???]

It ain't the best 'o my features, exactly, so. . .

Uwa...

[Hadn't seen it since the imp invasion, just knows she was unconscious when he dragged some SiVs along to their battlefield and got her healed. THAT'S GNARLY MOXIE]

[YEP]

Er. . . so what ya think I oughta do?

Well if it was me I'd wanna fix it. I could pull ya out if it's too bad?

Yeah. . . I was afeared ya'd say that.

[She sucks in a deep breath, smacking her hands together and rubbing.]

Okay. Okay. I'm Moxie, more'n ready to tackle this! Let's go!

[Shifting over the edge to carefully––

Nah j/k she plunges that sucker in.]

[ It's surprisingly deep.

It's also painful. It feels like it's burning everything away—the corruptions, certainly; the blood in your veins, maybe?

It feels as though all of you could burn away. Your identity, your existence, your self—if you don't hold fast to that. Just who are "you", anyway? ]

[S H R I E K

Who is she? Who is she? As if she can answer that when everything is roiling and burning, when it hurts, seriously––

Though actually, she's tougher than this. She's the one that weathers hardship and overcomes obstacles and does it with gusto and energy and a grin –– and she's proud of that, of what she can do and what she'll someday figure out how to do, and of all the people that stand with her and the amazing things they can do –– her brother, her friends, pep, they're amazing and that's why she'll drive herself to be amazing, too, to match. ]

[ And it all burns, truly—it sears through your veins and flesh and even seems to leech into your bone marrow, rushing through and leaving behind warmth.

Underwater, every sound is muted, leaving only you with the steady thudding of your heart. Your dauntless, daring heart, your heart that will always hold its own against whatever assails it, whether it's demons or anything else.

When you next resurface, you feel more whole—and at the same time, as though you've lost something.

You've lost your unit abilities—but your corruptions are gone. ]
