Sasha shuts the cupboard door, passes Chahle to Gerae temporarily, and cleans up the mess. In the middle of that process the tea alarm goes off. By the time she manages to recover Chahle and bring everyone a cup, it's definitely oversteeped. But then, it's green, so it still doesn't taste like much of anything.

Sasha pets Chahle along the spine, for luck maybe, and then asks the question she should have asked first, if she hadn't been so distracted by her own stupid lack of self-control: "Ione. Are you all right?"
