[ he'll flinch at the door slam and then lower his arm to the ground. oh he can totally see where things are going, and boy. he wasn't entirely expecting to get dragged into that so soon. ]
It was a little bit busy when I stopped by.
[ maybe? probably? who knows... ]
...but I think it's fine now.
[ he says with all of the confidence of a sopping wet cat rabbit. ]
[Lavi is lucky Elan grabbed supplies so he is, at least, spared the argument of Dehya forcibly carrying him there.
Doesn't make her happier. Really, everything since the start of that meeting has been a slow-boiling kettle, and then one of them was put through all of that, such immense pain it radiated to everyone else, for wanting to refuse a half-baked contract to some so-called God.]
You know, I'm no Amurta biologist or whatever, but I've seen some nasty injuries out in the desert. When you're all the way out in the dunes there's no doctor you can walk to.
[She's still watching Lavi as she walks by where her normal clothes are folded on what must be her bed--black and red fabric and glittering gold of a gauntlet.] So I learned how important it is to disinfect and cover an open wound. You may not bleed out, but the worst of it isn't losing the blood. It's when dirt, dust, sand, whatever gets into it. And the longer you wait, the worse the infection will be.
[She picks up her make-up compact and checks it over. Then she turns and points at the supplies.] That's when it gets fatal. So, do you need me to do that for you?
[ why does he suddenly feel the desire to become a rug or start groveling at her feet... oh is this what it feels like to want to become a worm?? though as she vents her frustrations on him and explains her experiences lavi's attitude shifts as well. "sobers" up, if you will. ]
I've seen some nasty things too. [ the words roll off his tongue with a slight bitterness. ] And in a few tough fights.
[ with some effort he'll make sure he's seated properly. ]
You don't need to help me; I've read up on it and understand the basics of what to do. [ as i'm assuming that he'll have the supplies that elan tosses at him by this point and will be starting the process of patching himself up properly.
and in a rare moment of genuineness: ] Sorry for worrying you.
[Dehya watches for a moment before sitting down on her bed with an exhale.]
Take care of yourself when you're injured and I won't. [She flips her clothes until she finds her Vision--inert, but there. Her fingers curl around the frame.]
Regardless what game we're supposed to be playing, that doesn't mean we have to jump to every man for himself.
[ he'll just look up at her with a meek smile as he gets to work patching himself up. does it look worse than it actually is? depends on who you ask, but lavi isn't going to suck up any pain he feels. ]
Yes, ma'am.
[ "every man for himself"...? hmm. ]
I don't think we have to worry about that—for now. [ as the days pass by? oh for sure. ] Right now, I have the feeling that there are enough people here who want to work together that those who would do otherwise won't make their opinions too loud just yet.
[ since they could afford introductions after all of this. ]
I don't enjoy battles or seeing people get hurt—especially in the name for something self-serving. I've seen more than enough of it to fill multiple lifetimes.
[ well, now that he isn't bleeding and patched up to some degree, he will absolutely make note of her vision. just a note. especially since she doesn't give him a moment before she drops the next bit of (obvious) news onto him.
no subject
oh no.
well. about the bleeding....if
it's still happening.
uh. h, hey!! look!! he's going to raise his hand that isn't pressed against the bite wound up at her. tada! jacket! ]
Didn't expect to see you so soon.
no subject
It kind of looks like you didn't go to the infirmary. Well? You done bleeding all over the place yet?

...] Two of you are going to have to share a bed.
[She's used to lodging with a lot of men. She is not sleeping in a closed bed with them.]
no subject
uh. ]
Huh?
[ he. missed that part. in all of this.... ]
W, well, I suppose that's only obvious.
no subject
She shrugs, picking up her clothes to put them elsewhere.] Bed's are pretty wide.
[They'll figure it out. She tucks her usual clothes in a drawer.] If no one else is going to use it first, I'm taking a bath.
