Carbide barely manages to remain on her feet long enough to snort out a half hearted chuckle at Opalite's little Freudian Slip there, and nod in agreement that she would not torment his gem core within the confines of her bust unless specific permission is given or if no other viable options were available......before more or less dropping heavily to her knees like some sort of lead golem, run out of power, and spitting a glitchy trickle of glowing hard light from the corner of her mouth, the world was spinning a bit. Perhaps it was a cumulative damage from the veritable power tools that half those drones were sporting, or maybe it was the gigawatts of persistent current that overwhelmed her heat shielding.. after all.. it was tuned more towards extreme temperatures than extreme current.
"RRffff-fuck! Cant tell what hurts worse, my inside or my outside. Give me a single big baddy any day.. none of this hornet swarm garbage.." More or less convinced the immediate danger was over, her knuckles and bust guard seem to vaporize and pop, and her visor glows and retracts back to its normal.. eyes only..coverage. Extra projections like those took energy anyway, and despite her little 'snack' from the ruptured fuel cell, that few moments of recharge seemed to have turned out to have been more of a 'hungry-again-in-15-mins' snack, than a proper proverbial energy meal. She reaches back clumsily, but some heavy drill scoring along her shoulder makes it tricky, but she manages to reach her gem core and inspects it by touch for damage, which, durability of raw silicon carbide aside.. there thankfully seems to be none.
She was more or less looking at the dirt between her knees now, not focusing.. or rather barely able to focus, but she didnt mind, she was an absolute suck when it came to looking at her friends when they're hurt, and she knew her smol blue friend would need a bit of time to recover enough energy to fuse his projection back together. "Don't worry.. we'll .. we'll get her, poof her, bubble her, use her to power a blender, I don't care what, but she'll get whats coming. You should get lil-boy-blue someplace safe, I'm not feeling remarkably .. mobile at the moment anyway." The scout clenches her eyes shut and rubs her temples, perhaps it was shock or whatever is close enough to it that gems can get it, she was glad that it was only humans who seemed susceptible to what they referred to as a hang over, not that she had much at the party anyway.. but she was petty sure that with all the ache she was feeling, she wouldn't want to stack that on top of it all anyway..
