Punctuation help, please
Help! Here's the section:
"That's more like it." Erina gave several more tugs. There were no more cries or screams, but only grunts and a few muffled oof's.
***********
The "oof's" are coming from another character. First off, does it need quote marks? a single quote? Italics? And should it be in a new paragraph, since it's another character? I'm wanting it to be from Erina's perspective, not a dialog from the other character, if that makes sense. Erina hears the oof's but I don't want the characater to *say* "Oof!"
Thanks for the help, LJ hive!
