... [ And for that, she'll smile warmly at him. ]

Do you want to go check on Yamato-kun again? Or do you need a minute?

[goalsides]

[there's just a long pause.]

...he needs me right now. He won't say so. But I know he does.

[momming]

Then-- don't push yourself. I'll leave some painkillers with you, but stay with him as long as you need to.

[ He has her blessing. ]

[goalsides]

[i'm gonna assume she at least helped him wrap his broken wrist and such so he will nod at that.]

...the others are going to be okay? [he assumes otome at least is aware of the state of everybody else. it's fine if she isn't though.]

[momming]

[ yes please assume she properly attended to his remaining injuries who am I where is this ]

They're going to be fine. I'm actually going to go check on the rest of them, just to make sure, but I do know they've been tended to.

[goalsides]

That's good. Everybody came back kind of a huge mess. It almost feels like they're getting worse, but not. [and then, quietly:] At least they all have people to look after them.

[momming]

And you do, too. And so does Yamato-kun.

[ She nods, once. ]

I'll support all of you with everything I have.

[goalsides]

[he...frowns, a little, like he's trying to make the dots connect.]

How can you?

[momming]

[ Taichi, singlehandedly calling out Otome's frustration with wanting to help people here-- ]

Mostly medically. But I'll be here to lend an ear and advice whenever you or anyone else might need it.

[ Now shoo. ]

[goalsides]

[sorry mom.]

...the others need you, but don't push yourself too.

[but okay, he will shoo.] Thank you, Otome-san.
