Darc barely even registered the fact that someone had just entered the room; he remained where he was, curled up on his side with his back to the door, the savage lacerations and welts from where he’d been whipped clearly visible, trails of dried blood running the length of his flesh. He didn’t have either the energy or the inclination to attempt to move at the moment, both the dehydration and starvation he was currently suffering from would likely have made it impossible.

‘Get out...’ he muttered gruffly through bruised and bloodied lips, his words sounding barely coherent even to him as he managed to force them out.

Vaarsuvius's expression flickered at the sight of his wounds, and suddenly, s/he was a lot gladder that s/he hadn't watched the television. S/he kept hir feelings from registering too much on hir face, though. S/he knew where hir focus had to be, and with any luck, he wouldn't see the signs of sleep deprivation and strain on hir face.

"Frankly, as much as I would like to respect your wishes, Darc, respecting your wishes does not amount to much if it ends with you dead."

‘....I’m fine,’ the half-breed grunted by way of response, his voice sounding even rougher and more gravelly than usual thanks to the lack of liquids he’d been forced to endure over the past several days. Still....his assertions sounded ridiculous given the state that he was currently in; even if Vaarsuvius could only see his back, it was more than enough to let the other know that he was a very long way from being fine...

"I am sure you are, but I simply wish to make sure you remain fine and you do not get infected."

Yes, that was a lie, but s/he was trying to preserve his pride at the very least.

Vaarsuvius glanced around the room, holding out one hand towards the corner.

"Let us bring some light in here, shall we?"

S/he snapped hir fingers, a heatless purple flame appearing in hir palm, and s/he took hir hand away, leaving the flame suspended in the air.

"Can you sit up?"
