AJ had been prepared to give him all sorts of updates on her strange bodily functions just to spite him for his disgust, but there were more important things to deal with, here. She had settled down to breathe for a little bit, but watching him freeze the squid-thing through, she gave an alarmed squawk. "Hey, go easy on it, we're not trying to make it taste like frost burn, alright?!" She scraped at some plating, now a little furry with Algidus' efforts. She tapped at a curled tentacle, now stiff as a board. She wished she'd actually straightened the corpse out before he'd gone and stiffed it. God damn...

But more importantly, AJ realized just how important Algidus' skills were. Before, she'd not really thought through what icing something might mean. With waves of cool coming off of his kill, she felt more respite than she had in days. She mashed her cheek against the corpse, than the other, then her forehead. Scraping more frost crystals from other parts of its shell, she crammed them down her jump-suit and then leapt to her feet, dancing around in a mess of curses and glee. She wasn't going to explain, not when Algidus looked at her like that, but she did settle her hands on her scrawny hips to give him a look of superior aloofness. "Alright, I'm ready to go," she admitted, feeling better than she had even this morning and not wanting to say a damned thing about it.
