More strange feelings, trying to figure out what's going on in there without seeing it directly. If she has a nervous system proper, it doesn't seem to be throwing any wild curveballs her way. She can feel that something is different inside her as he loosens things up, removes them, cleans them... but it's not really painful. Or maybe she's just telling herself it's not painful.
(Later, when she's not on the table, she'll worry about that. If it's a way to trick herself into not feeling pain and just vaguely feeling uncomfortable inside, then how will she really know if something is wrong inside of her? Is she so desensitized to pain? Is that why it was so easy to decide the best way to let her own blood for her powers?)
"I'm more a 'Push It' girl," she says dryly, but honestly the surprise of someone else actually knowing both Salt n Pepa is doing a lot to help bring her mind out of that bad pit. She takes a second to evaluate things, and there's... huh. That's interesting. The discomfort is actually, like, cleared up? Jesus, talk about desensitization. She'd gotten so used to feeling weird, uncomfortable feelings inside her body (in a purely physical sense, of course) that she'd just attributed it to getting older, but.
"Fuck me," she says in surprise like a mechanic doing his job wouldn't leave her feeling better. "Yeah, no, that actually worked. Are you saying that all the weird stuff my body's starting to do isn't just 'cause I'm pushing 30?"
