He hoped Nym was alright, but if what Ivy was saying was true, wouldn't that have meant that they would've taken him too, and not resorted to this silly dart technique? He wanted to know what was coursing through his body, and if he should be concerned, but other than a slight warmth radiating throughout his body - and it might've just been how close Ivy was for all he knew - there wasn't anything too off about how he felt. He didn't think to compare it to a heat, but he actually experienced those times of madness, and it probably wouldn't take too long for the drug to take effect. "Maybe it's a relaxing thing. I feel sorta relaxed." He smiled carelessly, letting his shoulders drop somewhat as he leaned closer to Ivy.

Ceral tapped his fingers against Ivy's chest, moving up towards her collarbone slowly. "I feel warm." He blinked once, twice, and let out a breath as he tried to calm himself down. "I smell better?" He laughed, an airy kind of laugh that wasn't so stressed sounding as his voice had been before. "Do they specialize in perfume? Pheromones? Maybe that's what they're doing, the cheeky buggers."
