Tonight has been a thorough disaster on numerous levels, and she's now wallowing in despair about it. Her hawk watches passively; it seems he knows what direction this has gone in and is basically just done with this whole thing. He'll pick up Annabelle's glasses and land on her shoulder so that they're available when her eyes clear enough for her to see again.

”All right, that should take care of the blood. You should see a specialist about the curse, though.” he says gently.
Corvin helps Annabelle up onto Domhnall's back with his permission, and covers them both with the sheet. It takes him a bit of effort to keep up with his companions in adversity even with Domhnall burdened as he is, but he makes the effort because he wants to keep up a constant, whispered conversation with Annabelle, "A day like this can certainly ruin things for you, but they can be overcome. I've had worse days than meeting a pretty lady and temporarily becoming one. And getting a kiss was quite the icing on an already sweet cake. A lot of people are now adjusting to new situations, and it's the fault of whatever spirit or djinn decided to curse you when you were already at a low point. I'll call my agent and have them call ahead to the nearest clinic so they can get a specialist to hand. He knows a few things about what I used to do, and I'm willing to blow a bit of my soft-earned cash on turning this day around for you, and this dashing gentleman who despite being a bit free with his words seems earnest in erasing any harm done as well." He raises his voice for the last sentence, even though he's sure Dom could hear the entire thing.
