I woke up feeling groggy, heavy and numb, with a weird taste in my mouth, but mostly just glad for waking up at all. I try to move, feeling too hot, and ended up bumping onto something.
I hear voices after my movement, and some weight over me as I try to open my eyes, only to encounter Leo's face very, very close.
I try to jump back but I hit something again, the sudden movement making me dizzy so I flop back down again. Someone lift the weight out of me, making it easier to breathe as I frown in concentration, trying to clean my mind.
I pass my tongue over my dry snout and someone brings fresh water for me, pouring it down slowly, even if I was so thirsty that I wanted to gobble it up in one go, having it off of me every time I went to fast.
Satisfied I tried once more to open my eyes, encountering a pair of golden ones staring me down.
"How are you feeling?"
