"I'll explain later," Elliot choked out when Tonks asked about the camel butt. It wasn't her fault she had a freakish vertebrae that stuck out when she bent over. It was completely natural.
She straightened up, gripping Tonk's legs with her hands to steady her. She could feel the other woman stretching upwards, feeling her own throat constricting under the gas. She could feel nausea building in her stomach as the smoky heaviness descended on them and then suddenly then pumps stopped.
The sudden silence allowed her to hear Tonk's muttering. "Doctor," she corrected, before leaning forward in order to slip Tonks off. She jumped as the pumps started moving again. "Oh God," she said, covering her nose and mouth again, but when she looked upwards she could see the gas being sucked out of the room. She gave a shiver of relief. "See any more buttons?" She asked looking around the room. Maybe one for a way out?
Her eyes swept over Sid's body and she turned her back guiltily on it. "We've got to get out of here."
