Dina laid the groundwork, back at the farm. Breathing awareness, sensory input. Repetitive motion. Sometimes it's enough to curb a fullblown attack, or bring her down if she's managed to get there. This -- she can feel herself losing ground, but she takes full, deep breaths, holds them, lets them slowly go. Presses her palm to her chest.
She can do it, probably. But then Lance does what is possibly the best possible thing he can. Soft melody with a background metronome of tones, easy to sync to, to time her breathing to.
It takes her just a few minutes to calm down, fighting back the intense embarrassment the whole time. It's irrational, she knows, but she still hates it, still hates people seeing it. Hates being seen. She rubs her eyes, breathes out again.]
