[Shudders]

...If they'd already gotten what they'd needed outta Elly, maybe they figured they could spill the beans to punish somebody else... Like us.

They for sure didn't have what they needed out of Elly though, right? Goat dude was saying it was some kinda test.

I mean. It probly didn't hurt that they got to, like - you know. Do some collateral damage. But I'm pretty sure if they were gonna hurt us just cause, they woulda done it right away.

Maybe.

[Sucks in a long breath]

...Lemme finish wrapping your eye before we gotta start over or something.

Ah - yeah.

[He ducks his head a little.]

Good call.

[Slowly extricates herself from him, at least enough that he can sit up properly. She gives him the cotton wad and prepares the gauze]

...Pack that in and I’ll wrap to hold it in place.

Uh. Sure.

[He takes the cotton wad, careful.]

How... how much am I packing in, here?

Until you don't feel like you're flopping around in there, I guess? I'm pretty sure I never done anything like this before, so kinda guessing on a lot of this.

Figure it can absorb if you start leaking again, too...the bandages should be good for a little longer.

O... kay.

[Presses the cotton in - winces - goes to take it back, but holds it there, instead.]

I think - that's probly good?

'Kay.

[Tucks the end of the gauze under his finger as well, and begins winding the gauze around his head a few turns]

...Okay? Too tight?

It's probly okay?

I think - I think that's okay.

[Tucks the end in on itself then pulls back, wiping her hands]

Should be okay for now, at least. We can take care of the rest later, I guess.

Thanks, dude.

Now - you gonna let me take a look at yours?

Not much to see. Everything's healed up by now, more or less.

For real? You, like - did the thing?

I stabbed myself, yes. Just a little sore, still, but I'm not gonna die or nothing.

...okay. There enough left to need bandaging, or...?

I'll elevate it later. C'mon, let's get that asprin.

You're gonna take some too, right?

[But he picks himself back up, obedient if still somewhat shaky from the pain.]

Why you think it's in my room?

[Touches his back, light, and stands by to support as necessary]

...yeah. Fair.

[Leans into the touch, unconsciously, though he seems to be if not steady on his feet, at least not going right back down again.]

[Leaves her hand there anyway, gently leading him back towards the room. She isn't much faster than he is, still favoring her leg just a bit, but it's not like they won't get there eventually]

[Lets himself be guides back, then - and eventually, yeah, in they go.]
