[ The pause lasts for another long moment -- and then there's a sudden absence, as if the spirit is no longer there. Where it went, it's hard to say. Maybe elsewhere, maybe back into its crypt, maybe it just fucked right off in irritation, you never know.
Either way, one thing's for sure: it hasn't forgiven them, and it definitely isn't happy about the thought of working with them.
Because when it leaves, leaving Carbink as itself again, the temperature is going to plummet again, and this time, it's dangerous. As a non-human, Jibril might survive it, but the others definitely won't. They're probably already in danger of frostbite by now, but it won't take much longer than a few more minutes for the humans of the party to fall unconscious, and from there it's too late. If Steven is able to bring Carbink back into its Pokeball despite frostbitten fingers, it will suffer only minor damage, and will otherwise be okay. All three of them will wake up 3 IC days later in a pile of bodies on top of a random roof in the Residential District, and will find it hard to feel warm for another IC day after that before things go back to normal.
If Jibril finds a way out within the next 5 or 6 minutes, she might survive. Maybe. But she still has to find one. ]
