I’m impressed with your sticking to a form.
This could be from the point of view of the yolk from the egg you recently cracked — too hot inside the shell, no hope of being attached to blood or ink, and the threat of separation! Or perhaps it’s a chick getting ready to hatch — the “fever” would make her hatch more quickly!

Can you say “para-shun”? I think she’s trying to explain it to him like he’s stupid that she’s leaving him, at least on some level. Maybe it’s a part-time shunning, or one that’s incomplete—like, they’re separated but still living together.

I also see “too many degrees in bow-think.” She’s shooting arrows at him.

This is bedtime, and she’s blowing him off by saying she has a fever/headache. But really, she’s just plotting her escape and doesn’t want him touching her. Why can’t he get the message she’s sending loud and clear? Leave me, or I’m leaving you.
