Comfort
With a gentle hand, Retsu brushed Jyuushiro's hair out of his eyes. It seemed that Jyuushiro had finally gotten to sleep. She let out a soft sigh. This was proving to be a very bad flare up of his disease, and Retsu was becoming very concerned. As much as she respected him for not letting his illness hold him back, Retsu worried about how far he pushed himself at times. And to be honest, she hated when he was sick.
Which was a little odd to some since Jyuushiro was her favorite patient. Of course, that had more to do with the fact that he was one of her favorite people rather than the fact that he was one of her patients. Whenever she could, Retsu cared for him personally. It was a comfort to them both. Retsu knew she had a tendency to worry about him, especially during these episodes, and while she couldn't do something like cure his disease, she could make him more comfortable when it flared up.
Thankfully, this time she had a lull in patients at the Fourth right now. Besides, a few injuries left over from a mission, things were quiet which gave her time to take of Jyuushiro. Isane could handle things back at the Fourth Division, and it would be good for her lieutenant to be the responsible party and give instructions to the whole division for a change. Isane would be a fine captain in time, and she could use the experience of being the sole person in charge.
A pair of warm brown eyes blinked up at her. "Retsu?"
She smiled and kissed his nose. "Go back to sleep, Jyuu."
He smiled sleepily at her and closed his eyes. Retsu hummed softly and let him sleep, both of them taking comfort in the other's presence.
