(How cold! And entirely fair, considering. The real problem is that even in situations like this fainting episodes tend to be fleeting, and with Alhaitham waiting to grab them, they're gonna start waking up relatively quickly and start flailing in panicked confusion. The movements are, fortunately, weak and awkward... but they throw the entire weight of their terrified mind at him, a flashbang of sensory confusion and panic--someone grabbing them, stop touching them, don't take them away, don't take them back there--that, if it's able to hit him at all ought to hit pretty hard.)
