Second, it will probably not go well......

[She probably blew on it but also, she's suffering. Please save her and end her suffering. It is very clear from her expression that pain has entered her life, but the only response he gets is a very slow:]
[He will give her eternal points for sweating without yelling or crying. Off he trots! He'll come back with a glass of milk and also a piece of bread.]

Ah! Really? You think so? I'm glad! Most people don't like this level of heat, haha.
[HE CAN TELL FROM HER EXPRESSION THAT SHE DOESN'T EITHER but he won't call her out. It's a kindness for the compliment.]
