Ulla came back in one piece, fretting more over Aerith than herself. With more than enough energy to transform before she goes to sleep.
But that night she jolts awake from dreams of Signy's voice, long tail thrashing slightly in their bed, not easy to hide when Taylor is curled against her.
Taylor’s awake the moment Ulla’s movements go from sleepy to upset, and she half-sits, a swarm suddenly filling the air above them as she puts a hand on Ulla’s shoulder. Her thousand senses tell her nothing has changed in the cabin before she even has time to exhale, and so she eases back down, squeezes her arm lightly. “Hey, it’s okay…”
Ulla tilts her head, pulling Taylor in to rest their foreheads together.
She sighs, a soft breath against her fiancee's lips, before admitting, "I
didn't tell you the worst part of it. For me. Aerith had a worse time, I
didn't lie when I said she was who I was most worried about."
Ulla considers how to describe it, settling on, "That place, the way it
was, was designed to... dig into people in ways that hurt. I wasn't
touched, physically. But the whole time, Signy's voice whispering horrible
things in my mind."

“Want to talk more about it?” Her voice is still deep with sleep, but she’s alert now.
