[Right. She really must have disappeared, or left as Death called it. Her gaze fell when he mentioned that, the guilt at leaving people like that coming back to her. It wasn't exactly fair to put everyone else through that, was it? Especially given that a lot of them were sick last time she knew.
But when the coughing fit hits, she's torn. Her arms immediately raised up to try and console him or something, somehow, but the rest of her body wouldn't move, and instead she takes a step back. It's hard to not want to do something for him, when he's sick and it looks like she isn't. But she will respect his wishes and what she can see of them (with him moving back and all).
Still, it was hard. He needs help and he needs something to get the coughing under control. It wasn't fair to just decline help because she might get sick again.
She looked away for a moment at the end, thinking and being reminded of what her leaving did for everyone.] I guess. I just hope they're all okay.
[She paused, still keeping her eyes away from him until a minute has passed and she remembered something that was on her mind since she regained consciousness.] Axel, how long has it been?
