Mmhm. It was dark where we were, so it was just hard to dodge.

But it didn't hit anything vital, so it'll heal.

[foodbin]

...I should have been with you.

[Whether that's this week's partner effect talking, it's hard to say. She does look genuinely remorseful, though.]

And you're sure it was cleaned properly?

[whitewalls]

I'll be okay.

[ she says it more firmly. please stop worrying. ]

... were you with someone?

[foodbin]

[She looks like she wants to continue fretting, but after a moment, she nods.]

Yeah. Lea and I were together.

[whitewalls]

[ ... hm

lea how did you leave with a flesh wound and she got her whole ass hand ]

And your hand's okay?

[foodbin]

[Much more casually than she actually feels:]

It's not going to get infected or anything, if that's what you mean. The two of us took care of it.

[whitewalls]

Good.

... can I ask how it happened?

[foodbin]

[She doesn't seem unwilling, but:]

As long as you're sure you want to know.

[whitewalls]

[ she'll nod ]

I'm sure.

[foodbin]

Did you see the maze? We were inside, and one of the people with a scroll came in. I had a gun I'd found, but... I didn't realize it only had one bullet, so he got a lot closer than I thought he would be able to, real fast.

[whitewalls]

... that must have been terrifying.

[ she knows axel has fighting experience at least, but she doesn't know how experienced emma is. ]

I'm sorry.

[foodbin]

[She's not wrong, but after a moment:]

...It'll be alright. I'm going to ask Sol and Lune for a prosthetic, so it'll be like nothing ever happened.

[whitewalls]

[ a prosthetic can't get rid of the trauma!!!! ]

... okay. Do you think they'll be able to get you one?

[foodbin]

[She nods.]

Yeah, I think they will. I might have to do them a favor for it, but I know they want to help all of us out.

[whitewalls]

I hope you can get that soon then. It seems... inconvenient.

[ she's trying to be

nice ]

[foodbin]

Yeah.

[...]

I could ask for something to help you out, too, if you want.

[whitewalls]

[ she shakes her head. ]

If you can only do one thing, your injury is the priority.

[foodbin]

I don't think it's limited to one, but... I'll ask. Okay?

[whitewalls]

Okay.

[ there's a nod ]

But focus on yourself first.

[foodbin]

I'm an expert at multitasking.
