if choking on your own blood counts.

Travel the void of space but can choke on blood?

Exactly. They said viltrunites can hold their breath for two weeks, right? Hopefully they'd be able to stop the bleeding before then. Assuming they don't just execute her for losing a fight to a kid, lol.

Holding your breath and actively choking on your blood are different things. You can't really do the former when the latter is happening.

I'm hoping she survives too (partly because she'd probably look badass with a cybernetic jaw), but the evidence isn't great.

True, they are different. But they're not so dissimilar that the ability couldn't transfer over. Both prevent your lungs from transferring oxygen to your blood, so it's a safe assumption that being able to hold your breath for an impossible amount of time would transfer to being choked.

That said, I admit I'm being pedantic here. I don't know what the writers intend to do, I just think it'd be pretty easy for them to explain her survival. And I just want her to survive, lol.

She already looks so badass, a cybernetic jaw would make her my favorite character just based on character design alone, lol.
