[ hi we're here in the medbay after setting poor rosamund up. she's probably being visited by other people, but for the sake of pcs, we're here anyways. the npcs are rotating in out of the medical bay of course, taking their shifts. imagine there's no helmet, it's all jaw.
io is here at their desk currently, boiling some water for tea in an electric kettle and patting another seat for nodd to sit down in. ]
Come. Rest. You did well today... [ softer ] Just sorry it turned out the way it did.
[ he will be a good boy and put his arm where he's told. as long as io is willing to threat him manual, sans pod, nodd will commit to very little complaining. ]
I'll be honest, kid has a set of chompers on her. You might want to check that out first.
[ chin indicates the shoulder area rosie gnawed on ]
[ they will indeed commit to those olde ways. they'll sit back down and glance over to the shoulder area. they are debating for a long moment before nodding and gesturing with a hand. ]
Alright then - take your shirt off. Let me see just how bad it is.
[ rosamund has rabies like squirrels........ real? (no) ]
[ a moment of teeth gritting as polyblend is peeled off of his wound. it does look nasty! as if some young woman really wanted to tear him apart with her mouth. she left some real damage when she went beastmode.
shirtlessness reveals nodd's full broken crescent moon tattoo. fun fantasy top surgery scars. all the places he's been briared.
nodd feels less and less bad about resorting to the headbutt. ]
Lucky me, huh? Always right in the heart of the action.
[ yeah nodd shouldn't feel so bad about preventing some serious damage, that rosamund could have done worse... they pause and just roll their dumb little doctor stool over and begin to quietly disinfect the area, working. ]
I need you to stop that... You worry me. But I think it's in your nature, so that's like telling a rabbit not to run, or a bull not to kick...
You know, I could see that the attempt was there... [ blowing softly to help. easy does it. dabbing a little more on. jeez, girl has teeth. we admire this. ]
But I can understand... when emotion gets the better of you.
Maybe you could've... but you also stopped her from doing the unthinkable... you gave us a chance to at least make her comfortable, monitor her...
[ softly ]
We'll be here all night taking care of her. If anything happens, it'll have to rip us away bodily. [ slowly begins to get these bite wounds wrapped up. ]
[ nodd plans on hanging in the corridor outside the medbay, somewhere that won't cause frequent interruption but surely he'll notice if anything happens.
haha. ha. for now, he accepts his healing. sags, after some time. the fight is running out of him. energy depleted. ]
I don't know if I'm gonna make another three weeks.

[ at this point, nodd still wears the twerk shirt, complete with rosamund bite marks and briar pokes and slashes.
he takes the seat. ]
It's all right. I've never been good at being popular.
no subject
Popular indeed. Take it you're tired of the pod? I can stitch you up right here if that's what you want...
no subject
[ forcing him into one for any amount of time is not impossible but it's not fun. akin to bathing a cat.
holds arms out then. ]
Stitch me.
no subject
[ they pull out part of their desk, setting down a sterile cloth and tapping it. ]
Arms up on this, Mr. Popular.
[ getting up and beginning to gather a few things from around the medbay. sutures, some gauze, antiseptic. ]

Would you believe I came into trial with the mindset I'd keep it quiet? Let everyone else fuss?
