Then you don't need to worry about the Hells. They really only do deals, and they can't just go around pulling people in without permission. You've got to...
Sure thing. I think it'll be alright, he didn't get me that bad.
But I'll come find you if it gets infected or something. I figure if we're all cut off from whatever it is we can normally do, I've got to watch myself a bit better.

Could do with some extra wood, honestly.
...
Hopefully we could find some more tools soon.
no subject
If we can find anything sharp, I could probably make something. You get pretty good at improvised weapons in the Hells.
no subject
[ She did mention that, didn't she. ]
Should I be concerned about that?
no subject
no subject
No. Decidedly not. Why?
no subject

[a pause.]
Well. Someone has to sell you.
no subject
...You've lived a very colourful life. No wonder you don't mind a moment of peace.
[ As much as he's uncertain about it, this moment right now does decidedly count as peace. ]
no subject
It's been a ride, sure. This is the least crazy thing that's happened in the last month, honest.
no subject
Try the last week alone...
no subject
Hah, looks like you've had a colorful life, too!
no subject
...
But this isn't really the time nor place for that kind of talk.
no subject
Fair enough, meds, I won't pry. But if you ever need an ear, I've got two of 'em.
no subject
He does look a little conflicted for a moment. ]
...Right. Thanks.
...
Speak up if your shoulder is bothering you. I've got two hands -- must be better than you trying to reach it with one.
no subject

no subject
Don't want to go to the old-school solutions for dealing with infections if we can help it.
no subject
-- Oh, you mean like chopping it off. Yeah, no. I like my arms.
no subject
[ Yeah. ]
I'm sure everyone likes having two arms. Even if you don't, you'll learn once you lose one.
no subject
she also looks him over like she's expecting him to somehow be missing an arm even though she's been talking to him this entire time.]
no subject
No yeah, it's the only reason why he's able to turn his robe into bandage strips. This would be really hard with only one.
Her looking him over like that makes him weirdly nervous though for some reason, doing this cloth fragment-making chore with More Purpose. ]
no subject
anyway, she's pretty perceptive, so when she notices him getting nervous she knocks it off. she does not however have tact, so:]
You don't like people looking at you much, huh.
no subject
But not a lot of people like being stared at too closely, right?
no subject
[tilts her head.]
Oooh, you're just a nut to crack. I wanna ask you all these questions, but you're about to take off like an imp that's sat on a geyser.
no subject
...I'm not going to flee, and I have the power of agency. If you asked a question I don't want to answer, all I'd have to do is refuse.
no subject
no subject
Like you were expecting me to be missing an arm myself.
