[ For the moment, Julie does, at least, seem to have enough of a hold on the cloud to keep it from pouring rain. It's still growing, threatening to drench her as she breaks through it with her hands, but it mostly wants to reform as soon as she moves.
Nadine enters, and as Julie looks over at her, the cloud flickers from within, lightning that stays inside the cloud, doesn't yet strike down. Julie (who is now, understandably, terrified of lightning) backs away from the darkening cloud, steps down from the bed to pull open the shutters. It's still freezing outside, and the cold wind sends goosebumps up her bare arms. She trembles, and even she's not sure if it's from the chill or the continued flashing. ]
