Yes, I'm coming to realize that.

... Thank you, though. For your help.

I’d be a real asshole if I’d just left you sat in the middle of the field like that, Otome.

[momming]

[ just as gently as she ever talks]

Then I'm very glad you're a fake asshole, Crow.

[chevaliered]

[ he’s probably looking for/grabbing her medkit so they can get those painkillers in her and get some tape out— but he pauses, and snorts slightly. ]

Nah, I’m very much a real one. There are just different levels to it, I guess.

[momming]

Well, it's true that everyone has complexities.

[ Okay, Crow. At least her medkit is nearby, thanks Mabel. ]

[chevaliered]

[ mabel is the mvp ]

Yeah, some more than others. [ he’d wink! but now’s not the time. he does however hand her a blister pack of pain medication and give her a Look.

take your meds, doctor ]

[momming]

[ Otome gives him a rueful look in response, but does tear off the back and takes two pills dry, like a badass.

There. All fussed over. ]

[chevaliered]

[ there was that so tough? ]

No heavy lifting either.

[momming]

Yes, and restricted activity.

[ she knows!! ]

[chevaliered]

Which you’re gonna stick to and not “but I’m a doctor, I have to bust my ass to help”— right?

[ … ]

In all seriousness I have first aid and field med training. You can boss me around if something’s too strenuous. I’m into it, in specific circumstances. [ CROW ]

[momming]

Certain circumstances, hm? I suppose I could cooperate.

[ He's flirting now which means he's probably less worried about her, which is its own relief. ]

[chevaliered]

[ well. to a point. ]

Half the fun is figuring out if the circumstances fit, after all.

[momming]

So I should boss you around until I figure out what gets you hot and bothered?

[chevaliered]

Oh, kinky. I didn't take you for the type, Otome.

[momming]

I'm a doctor, why wouldn't I have a healthy interest in bodies?

[ she says. Cheerfully. ]

[chevaliered]

[ otome, you tease. ]

Bossing those bodies around though? That's some blatant power play, Otome.

[momming]

Maybe I like it when bad boys decide to follow the doctor's orders.

[ I hate you ]

[chevaliered]

[ hm? ]

If you ask nicely, who knows what’ll happen. [ smile ]

[momming]

Duly noted. [ it's said with a laugh and a wince, but.

You know, coping. ]

[chevaliered]

[ oof. ]

Right, so making you laugh is banned too.

[momming]

Absolutely not. [ as sternly as she can manage through a breathless smile. ]

Laughter helps quite a bit.

[chevaliered]

Even when your ribs are busted, huh?

[momming]

Even then. It's better than... [ she flaps a hand hahaha she killed a teenager ]

[chevaliered]

[ he just

boops her nose. ]

What this place does to you does not put the onus of responsibility on your shoulders. Get mad and get even, don't get yourself bogged down with guilt.

[momming]

[ And she blinks, a little caught off-guard. ]

... Do you think I'd let it bog me down?
