(Alhaitham lets go and Chris thrashes violently as Mehrak lifts them away, body twisting around in their clothes the way a Honey Badger twists in their skin.
It's violent enough to knock over the chair and, once the grip is loosened, they break free and collapse to the floor then lay there, hyperventilating.
The intensity of the fear begins to die down, but now you've got a fucked up telepathic ticking time bomb of a person just laying on the floor leaking fluids out of their face, because it really can't be called crying when it's just a stream of tears and drool and snot and they've ruptured a vessel in the eye so there's some blood leaking out with the tears too and... yeah. Yeah this is pretty gross.
Already unsettled by the realization provoked by Alhaitham's thoughts, it wasn't hard to rile them into a blind rage, then a blind panic when they were pinned like that and were suddenly back in their worst memories.)
