It's less a word, and more of a shrill noise like some cartoon beetle crying in distress. The blood was rushing to charlotte's head, painting ER face into a sick, swollen thing like a rag doll dipped in milk and honey. And here now, a stagehand pulled into the open by one of the agonists and the only thought in her head was that she was glad this happened before the lights went up, even though she dimly realizes this particular play isn't hers to set up, and maybe this is what all the people she had prepared things for felt like?
