Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

Sorry. It hurts, doesn't it?

[ like halfway down the forearm now ]

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

I'll be fine.

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

That's a funny thing to say to the person handling your injuries...

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

I'll be fine because you're handling it.

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

[ oh ]

Oh.

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[normally she would be more embarrassed about having said this but filtering is hard right now]

So it's fine.

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

... I'll try.

Thanks.

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

You're thanking me...?

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

For trusting I can do it.

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[falls silent to have a small crisis upon realizing she does trust him to do it]

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

[ down to the wrist now. he's okay with silence, and looks down at what he's doing instead of at her face. giving her a minute ]

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[she'll probably be silent until it finishes, and at that point:]

...Thank you. What do I owe you?

[immediately back on her bullshit]

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

Is that a joke?

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[no]

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

[ gets to his feet with a sigh and offers her a hand up ]

You've already been working hard. Jamil and Brekker-san need you at your best, too.

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[nods]

I can go back out. I'll avoid the forest.

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

Come back long enough to sit down and drink water first. You lost a lot of blood.

[ he regenerated some of it for her already but still ]

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[hesitating]

I'll just use more pewter.

[who needs blood when you can eat metal]

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

Is that... okay?

[ what ]

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

Yes.

[gets up]

...Thank you.

Re: cw dismemberment

[rationalizations]

[ well that sounds weird but surely Vin wouldn't lie to my face rather than just drink a glass of water ]

Any time.

Be careful.

Re: cw dismemberment

[allomantic]

[farewell]
