Between the adolescent hormonal changes, her recent confusion about her attraction to sexuality (double cute girl hug!), the fact that most of her group are in relationships (at least tentatively) and her own specific history/fear of abandonment, it’s not unreasonable to worry that she could overreact.
And we’ve all seen how well she deals with emotional overloading. I’m sure her training has helped but being overwhelmed could cause her to forgot temporarily.
Whether she’s primarily Woody or Herbaceous, her Primary Respiratory processes are most likely Aerobic. There’s no direct sunlight here and the ambient temperature is likely under well under 45︒C … Let me put this another way:
GIVE’R AIR!!!
On reflection I think we should be impressed that a Castela that was so upset that she was crying managed to maintain human eyes for as long as she did.
It took a hug attack to make her revert to eyestalks.
If I’m correct that Cas’s crying was because she was blindsided by actually feeling touched by Shawna’s sentimental affection, I hope that’s cleared up soon. I also hope that Cas doesn’t feel bad about Shawna (for well-meaning reasons) ranting that she’s a poor, formerly-lonely orphan with abandonment issues.
Shawna has always meant well, but she could use a few lessons in tact and perception.
(I’m not sure if I’d be happier if Scarlet is doing this whole thing sincerely or if she’s affectionately screwing with Castela. The former is sweet of her, but the latter is sweet of her and shows how well she knows Cas.)
She did say she was ‘thrown away’ by her previous parents. Seeing all the likewise ‘thrown away’ items stirs up recollective emotions in her through inflection of each piece of junk furniture practically telling Castle; ‘I know how you feel…’ 🥺
D’aw!
D’aww X 10,000 you mean…
so much hugging. ~<3
Her eyes converted. Wow that’s a lot of mixed emotions going through her.
Double boob squish – that’s gonna do wonders for her confused sexuality.
Well, Hiroshi showed up.
Now, where are Daylla and Mohan?
And Castela, do not lose your temper!
They might be competing in the big annual inter-paranormal-school Ancient Games tournament? Mancala in the morning, and 58 Holes in the afternoon?
Why would she lose her temper? o_O
Could understand her losing her cool and melting, butt losing her temper?

Like said: lose her cool, sure, butt not lose her temper
I think she’s more worried about breathing first. Of course, being a plant, that’s simulated most of the time… I think.

Paul shows his skill, drawing a three-party hug. I’m given to understand that is difficult.
Marshmallow Hell strikes again!
Give her another squeeze. Pop those eyestalks right out of their sockets.
I’ve always wondered if when she changes her eyes if the colors and aspect ratio change for her.

Almost as big a squeeze as Atsali gave Monica that time Ms. Calamari, one of Tina’s inner demons, wandered up to them.
This is all very appropriate and proper. The making of pressed flowers is a very old and respected tradition!
Hopefully they don’t accidentally suffocate her…
(I mean, plants need air too, just a different gas in in it.)
“Poor” Castela, her (unofficial) family has become larger.
I wanna trade places with Cas in that last panel.
You too?
would it be wrong of me to want to take out Cass. And insert me into the middle of that hug???
Probably. They’re all under age.

Perhaps she really IS allergic? Nobody thinks of that?
Panels 1 & 2:
🤔 It looks like Scarlet’s “mammal bumps” are bigger than Shawna’s again 😵💫
Castella, in a three way hug, has her eye·stalks looking like her eyes are crossed 😒
Castle claims she was ‘thrown away’ just like all the furniture surrounding her; that ought to tell you something…
