[There's a nod at Akane when she walks in, but that's it. In fact, it's unusual. Almost as if Milla doesn't seem to initially hear her. She blinks—then turns, frowning.

Picking up a book off the table, she settles into the sitting area couch, keen to get her mind into anything else.]

[She blinks again, and looks at Akane—who is clearly looking at her with a pout.]

Oh!

I'm sorry, that really was you. I apologize. I--

[She hums in irritation.]

I seem to be hearing things that aren't there, so I've missed several conversations.

tothemaxwell: (wired up to detonate)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
Yes. I was--

[She opens her mouth again, frowns, and closes her eyes. There's a solid few seconds as she seems to focus—and her eyes open again.]

During the assault on the enemies this week, I was compromised by a projectile. I mistook it as simply a physical attack, but--

[Her eyes dart around the room briefly, and she scowls, shaking her head.]

To put it bluntly, it's extremely inconvenient. I feel as though I'm losing my mind.

No. Only th-- the voices.

[...]

I apologize. It's a lot of screaming.

Honestly speaking, it truly is.

I don't know how long it will last for, but i should be able to endure it for a few days at maximum.

tothemaxwell: (i'm a fuse)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
On the contrary—I wish I did need to sleep. Wouldn't that banish these voices, even if just for a few hours?

tothemaxwell: (stand back)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
Ugh. This really is inconvenient.

[She closes her eyes for a moment—then opens them, as if remembering something.]

Do you need any assistance with your bandaging, Akane? I apologize for being so late in asking you.

Date: 2019-06-23 03:44 am (UTC)
tothemaxwell: (bad news)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
Of course—I'd be more than willing to assist you.

[She gets up, making her own way across to Akane.]

Do you have all the pieces for dressing? I've been practicing this week, so I should be able to do it quite skillfully.

tothemaxwell: (i'm on a mission tonight)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
Scraps?

What about the disinfectant and other cleaning agents? You were cut, weren't you?

But every time a wound is dressed, mustn't it be re-cleaned, it stave off infection? I recall that from a book.

Well, if you are confident, then I will simply swap the cloth. But I would feel better if we followed instruction to ensure a clean heal. Humans can be very fragile.

Date: 2019-06-23 05:22 am (UTC)
tothemaxwell: (bad news)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
Understood. I will run some water, and clean it for you.

Are you able to unwrap it, at least?

[by the time Akane has unwrapped it, Milla is back, carrying a small cup of warmed water, and a hand towel.]

Let me see.

tothemaxwell: (bad news)
From: [personal profile] tothemaxwell
[Out of an abundance of caution, Milla cleans the wound—first, with one corner of the towel, then dabbing it dry with the other. It's a clumsy, but clearly gentle action, done with ample caution to Akane's own tension.]

I'm going to bind it again, now. Tell me if it is too tight.

[With quick, deft movements, Milla wraps the stab wound, checks the tightness with a finger—then wraps it once more, finishing with a clean, unobtrusive knot.

Fancy.]


Is that acceptable? I can re-wrap it, if it isn't.
