There is a moment of disorientation for both of them.

It lasts longer than a moment for Suzi, however, who spends almost a quarter of an hour throwing up helplessly.

That's plenty of time for Deitmar to get his bearings and look around the countryside. The only thing she managed to say before throwing up was; "51.533333, -3.266667." which...

Oh yeah. More than enough time; enough time, in fact, to wonder if she's ever going to stop.

He sort of wanders around a little, looking for water, shelter, and a direction in which to go. . . although that last one? Not as important as the others. Especially since Suzi is likely to end up very dehydrated.

He moves in a giant circle around her, returning in between trips. If he sees anything else to do--scraping away the topmost layer of ash so that there's a depressed area to vomit into is one--he'll do it, but. . . Birkin's the one with medical training. He works with cells.

There is, in fact, a river fairly nearby. Isn't that a lucky thing? It flows right along what used to be a town, and is now burned-out chunks of building at least a decade in ruin.

The water is greatly appreciated, and when Suzi finally stops she stares up at him blearily and says, "We're in...Wales. In..." mental number crunching is going on here at a rate faster than a calculator, "Quinn's time. We need to get to the North East. And then I'm going to find out what Quinn did, and murder him."

She's not trying to stand up yet.

She stopped. She actually stopped throwing up. He was starting to be unsure if that were possible.

"Who's Quinn?" This second look around is a good deal more cautious. "What happened here? I've never seen damage like this, it," he pauses, "it's like everything organic was stripped out." He holds up a hand, dirt and ashes sifting through his fingers. "What world is this?"

"Quinn is an Ancient. This is Earth. Wales, it's in the United Kingdom? This, um." She shrugs, "Probably the dragons. That's what they did? Are doing? Something. We're in the past." Suzi? Is somewhat offended by this, really.

Mostly because the only reason she stopped throwing up was because her stomach was literally emptied of everything in it. Including bile. And she's faintly afraid that the squishy-sponge feeling in her mouth was part of her stomach.
