So everyone is safe, now?
Are we certain?
I hear people can come back from the dead. It is not right, that so many were killed when their actions were not their own. It seems I have a few apologies to be making.
Malkus. Friend? You are well, I hope. Not avoiding me?

I told you I would be.
You are well, then, Anna?

I am, yes.

No injuries?
[Dastan doesn't know with Anna.]

Are you worried for me, Lion of Persia?

[Have a flustered Dastan.]
What--I...
[A pause.]
Well are you?

Careful Dastan, one might mistake your inquiry for concern.
But I assure you, I am alive.

We are friends, Anna?
[A bit of a pause, here. She still didn't answer whether she was injured or not--but he supposes her being alive was a blessing as well.]
Glad to hear it.

We are, yes. And I am uninjured, and…quite fine.
And yourself?

Good. Good.
[He doesn't really know what else to say here, so he doesn't say much of anything. At her question, though, Dastan winces. A hand rises up to his injury at the back of his head, but he doesn't touch it. It's still tender. Why wouldn't it heal? It wasn't so grave an injury it should be giving him trouble all this time. Was it?]
I am healthy, more or less. A little bumped and bruised, but... nothing to be too concerned over...
[There is a small amount of hesitance in his tone at the end, there, along with a bit of confusion. Maybe he would wait a few more days and see if his head injury had healed at least by then...]

Dastan.
[There’s concern, worry, urgency in her tone.]
Are you hurt?

What--? I...
[He knows well enough to tread with care while answering her. He sighs.]
It's just a small injury. Believe me. It just--it should've healed by no--ow!
[Okay, so bringing his hand to the back of his head wasn't a smart idea. Still. It's not like he was still bleeding. Or so be believed. He would be much dizzier right now if he had been.]

[He is…freaking her out, to put it mildly. Anna…cannot lose him, and it’s all she can do to reign in her panic and push herself into leader mode.]
You are injured. Where? What has happened?
Reply
[Though when Tus had asked whether or not Dastan had been injured, Dastan thought he had only been grazed by the blow. He did not realize it would stick with him. The pain from such injuries were usually gone within a few hours.]
It happened while Tus and I were fighting the infected. I just figured it would be gone by now.

[SHE R DISAPPOINT.]
Where are you, mon cherie, hm?
Reply
I'm ah--
[He hesitates. You see--Dastan is fairly active and always moving. A small grunt can be heard, and a murmur too quiet to be picked up. Yep. Dastan's up on the roofs again.]
I'll be right down.
