Very tight writing- not a single space wasting word (envies- it takes me awhile to cut my own wordiness, and I know I miss alot). Very tight writing always flows! Don't know if it matters- but you dropped an e on the fudgesicle and need a quote between "roared" and "You'll".

You caught the humorous cross purposes- the thought vs. words. Interesting to think about power to heal physical wounds. Very useful in house with kids- no bandages!
