The EMTs likely recognize Era for who she is, which is part of the reason why she takes Aymeric's advice and leans into him. She presses her face against his arm, inhaling a scent that's still familiar after all these years, then exhaling a quiet sigh.

"I was a bitch," she interjects, not willing to let him shoulder the blame. Era jokes as well, though it's not entirely false: "And I guess I'm still a bit overdramatic."

The wound has healed as much as Era is willing to risk in public, so she loosens the grasp she has on Aymeric's hand reluctantly. She'll likely continue shaking and feeling slightly unbalanced for at least another few hours, but now she won't be bleeding out anywhere.

It's then that she notices something she should have picked up on earlier - "Why are you here?"

Which Era thinks is a fair question, given that her dear old friend is not just another Average Joe.
