Carrying Hitsugaya would be a lot easier if he was awake to hold onto her... if they ended up leaving again before he regained consciousness, Hokuto was saying to hell with his dignity and ripping up a bedsheet to tie him to her back. It was how people used to carry toddlers before baby-backpacks became popular, and she would feel a lot better knowing he wasn't about to slip bonelessly to the floor if she moved wrong.
At the rate she kept seeing shinigami losing blood after just using their powers, she was going to need to know more first aid... when they got into the room she went to see about easing him onto a bed. So much for exploring the basement tonight, probably; oh, well, it would give Subaru time to demand answers when his twin wasn't bandaged up.

"Find a flashlight," Momo said as she took Hitsugaya from the girl. If his weight bothered her at all, it didn't show, and she carried him over to one of the beds. Laying Hitsugaya gently down, she caressed his cheek as she sat sown next to him. She smoothed his hair back and gently ran a thumb over one of his eyebrows.
Suddenly feeling self-conscious, Momo withdrew her hand and sighed. She glanced over to check Hokuto's progress. She hoped Signum and Saber were okay.

After a pause, she went to sit on the other bed; she might as well give the other two some space. Hitsugaya would hopefully wake up soon enough, and Momo seemed self-conscious enough about their relationship.
She wondered what the plan was now, since they might not be able to count on Signum and Saber showing up. Asking could wait, though; Momo might tell her without being prompted, and this didn't seem like the time to keep her talking.

"Let me have some light," she said. "Aim it at his chest."
Once the light reached the designated location, Momo went about checking Hitsugaya's vitals, her movements all indicating a level of caring that hadn't really been visible before. She knew what had happened, but she couldn't help it. She had to make sure there hadn't been something worse. Okay, maybe it was paranoia or a desperate need for him to be alright...
"Stupid," she muttered softly. "You should have let me cast it. You know my kidou is better suited to this place than yours..."
