He felt it too, that scratchiness, but he'd thought something about the plants was irritating something -- he'd swallowed more than one cough himself, a touch more practiced at it, having to appear strong and stalwart, but even he was breathing a little harder.

She understood chemistry and combustion far better than Silco did, who probably had enough knowledge for survival, and perhaps what he'd picked up from Singed, but not the intimate, in-depth knowledge that Silco held. He would trust Jinx over himself, and while she was chaotic -- wild and free, he would say -- she wasn't going to say anything that would hurt the two of them. Hopefully. He pulled out his lighter. ]
