Between the pain and Gideon touching her face, Tally's so bubbly it's coming close to falling off the roof. She can clearly recall everything: her conversation with Magnus, Gideon looking at her in the woods, the way it felt for David and Zane to kiss her. It hits her like another fall to the floor that with concern in her eyes and her hair falling over her forehead, Gideon is kind of good-looking.
"Um," she says. "No, it's totally fine. I've taken worse, definitely. I just need medspray. Or whatever Rusties use for medspray. And then we can keep going." She reaches up to guide Gideon's hand to catch a drop of blood that had escaped down the column of her throat. "It's bubbly-making."
