[Feeling Alice's hand helps, at least a little. It's warm, real. Grounding. Jade tries to focus on that, on the feeling part rather than what her sight and sound tries to tell her.]

Mm, kinda...

[Jade falls quiet for a moment, before she adds:]

More like a side effect of my magic, and the body and mind not being able to "cope" with all the myriad Eventualities that our magic draws from. It's like... seeing the world and the people in it -- as they were, are, will, and could be.

[Much like the corpse of Alice holding her hand right now. Jade isn't trying to think about it too much. Only the skin, not the blood.]

Not being able to maintain the Fever during our little "nap" probably didn't help, though.
