CREATURE CONFRONTATIONS: Vanya & Five
"Okay, that's - that's not so bad." It was, though, and it was written all over her face. Just because it wasn't the worst it could be, didn't mean it wasn't bad at all. She chewed on her lip, pushing back some of her rain-soaked hair. She clearly wasn't going to move from this spot for a minute, so she fully sat down - crossed legged - and took some deep, hopefully calming breaths.
The stones on her bracelets were an amber color. Apparently, that meant she was feeling a mix of emotions, and given the slightly greyish hue it was stress, nervousness, anxiety. She took a few more breaths, deliberate and the stones stuck to grey, low-level stress.
It turned to a darker grey, Vanya's face turning red. She was obviously more than a little ashamed at herself. "I- I think I took it off." She reached out, taking it gently from his palm and placing it back around her neck cautiously. The suffocating feeling was gone. "It - I don't know what it was, but it felt like it was suffocating me so I took it off."
