[While the titan's body does evaporate, it's generally not instantanteous - it melts away like a candle, first the skin, then the muscles, lastly the bones, until nothing is left. However, given the damage to the tissue holding Frieda suspended, she and Jade have an unsually rough fall.

Hearing his laughter at her hair tug relieves her, but it doesn't right away dispell the mortification she feels, nor the retroactive worry for him.]

I-- I know what happened! Jade, you can't provoke me when I get like that! I could've eaten you!

[She wraps her arms around him, relieved that he came out on top against her vow-driven self (and even seemed to have fun at it!)... and on some level, even in her fretfulness she enjoys the feeling of his smooth, tough eel skin under her hands.]

I know you're a great mage, but please, think of me, too! In fairness, though, it's on me... I never should've taken you into the nape with me!
