[The sound clicks itself on. She does like to be reciprocal with her communication. (And it is easier to lie down with her fingertips pressed to her eyelids when she's talking.) Her voice is bright and keyed-up, almost frustratedly cheerful before it stutters to a halt and she lets out a sigh that nearly seems to unwind.] A bit cranky, really.
