It's still a little warm from her body heat, and she drops it into Clarisse's lap with one finger before she gets back to work. Maybe her bedside manner is questionable, but hey, she made her laugh for a moment, and it makes the rest of everything easier to get through.
Silence falls as Ellie gets through most of the stitches, before she finally asks.
"How's Tertia?"
She saw that Clarisse went to go talk to her after that.
And Clarisse knows that Ellie had been the one to steal into camp with Templar backup to kill the man that Tertia once knew.
