"Alright. Well, if your healing isn't working in Crinos, it may be worth it to shift to whatever form you wanna be around other people in. I can help clean and disinfect your wounds like this, but any bandaging is just gonna get messed up when you shift again."

She keeps her head tilted down in a way that doesn't protect her throat; she doesn't want to look defensive. She's trying to project an aura of calm and practicality.

"And don't worry, it's going around." Elle doesn't expand on that statement, but she herself is covered in bandages that she normally wouldn't need.
