[NOV 1 / 3:15 AM] [OPEN] John, Rikku, anyone else!

[conheir]

[And John staggers through the entrance of the clinic, with an injured girl on his back. She seems to be burned and bleeding in the arm, which is covered by an sloppy amateur bandaging job. John himself doesn't look too burdened by the weight itself, and more from the fact that he had to walk for quite a distance with the weight to get to the clinic. Luckily, John himself isn't injured, only covered with grime and dried blood.]

Hello? Is anyone here!!

[pickinurpockets]

Ngh...stop yelling, John. People're sleeping.

[Yeah, Rikku's pretty out of it.]

[endthiscycle]

[These two had good timing. Winry had only just arrived at the clinic with Lady and Haru. She herself looked rather roughed up but she was already in work-mode.]

[When she sees who it is, her chest constricts a little but she does not let that stop her. Somewhere in the back of her head she is impressed to see John carrying her, and without much difficulty either. Nevertheless she rushes forward and moves to help take a bit of the weight off him]

Here lets get her to a bed.

[conheir]

Oh- [a beat of guilty silence] -whoops, sorry sleeping people.

[And when Winry comes forward to help, John blinks when he realizes that he recognizes this girl. Wasn't she-- from last time--?

But he nods and mutters his thanks, taking her lead to get Rikku to a bed. When they get there, he turns around and gently sits Rikku onto it. Then he steps back, and he can't help a big breath of relief to have the weight off of his shoulders. Literally.]

Um. How do you feel, Rikku?

[pickinurpockets]

[She doesn't respond--she just tries to sit up when they lay her down, whimpering a little.]

Don't wanna lie down. S'not comfortable.

[endthiscycle]

[Winry frowned a little, but helped her sit up.]

Don't talk too much. [directed to John] What happened?

[conheir]

Augh. I don't know!! I just found her, and she was bleeding, and talking about thunder or something! I am really confused, and also worried.

[He glances at Rikku again.]

Uh, you guys can fix it though... right?

[They got Kurt better, after all!!!]

[pickinurpockets]

A boy...he attacked me. Turned into a sword an' everything.

[She yawns. She's sleepy]

[endthiscycle]

[It was no head wound, so it would be okay if she did fall asleep so Winry made no protest to her beginning to drift off.]

Yes, don't worry. Excuse me, Rikku. [she only said it out of courtesy. She knew that Rikku was a Weapon, so without any hesitation she put both her hands on her friend's shoulders. A glow began in the center of her chest, then traveled through her arms making them illuminate, and into Rikku. The healing process began as her soul wavelength sought out the worst of Rikku's injuries and began to cure them]

[conheir]

[A weapon. That's a sword. That sticks to John's mind, though he doesn't really want to think too hard right now -- so it will just stay in the back of his memory for now.

He collapses in a chair next to Rikku, staring in an awed wonder at the magical healing. It... does look like it's helping a lot, yeah. He gives Winry a weak smile, not wanting to address his partner now that she looks so sleepy. In a quiet tone:]

Heh, it looks like you sure help out a lot, whenever I see you. I am John! And, um... thanks a lot.

[pickinurpockets]

[Rikku mumbled something before Winry started healing. The feel of wounds magically disappearing and healing themselves was familiar--familiar enough that Rikku just leaned against Winry and fell asleep.]

[endthiscycle]

[Winry smiled down at Rikku, brushing some hair back away from her face and very gently lowered her back onto the bed so as not to wake her]

Of course, John. And it's my job, not need for thanks. She'll be fine, just needs about a days worth of rest.

[conheir]

[He nods.]

Okay. I still think it's a thing that you should be thanked for, though!

[Annnd there's a bit of silence from him. Then he asks a bit hesitantly...]

Er... am I allowed to stay here with her?

[endthiscycle]

You can, as long as you stick here and are careful not to disrupt the people at work. As you can see we're pretty busy. In fact I should probably get going now, but if you want to go and get a chair from the entrance you are more than welcome to.
