[Aimery is leaning against a brick wall and looks like he seriously got his ass kicked. Half of his face is swollen and reddish-purple, and he's caked in dried and fresh blood. The clean parts of his face are pale while his once-white t-shirt is now mostly red. It's obvious from his voice that he's still pretty out of it.I'm returned from Babylon, ( Read more... )

[There's a bit of a delay, cause he is greeting Sefton. Yay!]

No no, no hospital. The hostel would be fine, it's not far. Bleu found me, but he's... he can't help me up and I'm not sure if I can walk. My knee is... being very unsupportive.

[Yep, he's trying to be funny. Sefton's voice comes through and he anxiously gives Seras an address.]

O-oh good. [At least someone has him safe for now. Sorry, but that bit of humor is lost on her for right now, she's too busy going into Mama Bear mode.]

[To Sefton:] I'll be there soon. Thank you, for taking care of him.

*~*~*

[Seras arrives within a few minutes, thankful for awesome vampire speed-- amped up with her recent feeding-- and looking oh so grateful to see Aimery's alive. However, she's less than ecstatic about his current state, and the mix of rage towards whoever did this to him, and general anguish at seeing him this way is quite evident in her expression. Despite this, she forces herself to calm down some, and offers a crooked smile.]

You can't go on ennymore vacations, you know.

[Aimery looks even worse in person. Besides the pool of blood where he'd been laying, his hair is matted with blood on his bruised side, and the hole in the front of his shirt over his heart makes it pretty clear all the blood isn't from his head. The puncture wound there is clotted up though! Yay?

He's rubbing at his knee when Seras approaches, trying to get it soothed back into working order while simultaneously trying not to scare Sefton any more.]

No, no more vacations. The parts I can remember were nice, though.

[ Sefton is crouched near Aimery, mostly watching the alley entrance though sometimes his gaze will flicker to Aimery. He's understandably jumpy, and when Seras shows up, he can't help but stare. ]

S' the stuff you can't that's worrying... [ Shakes his head and spares Aimery another glance. ] Can you carry him? Or... help him walk?

I can carry'im. [The girl looks like she weighs 100lbs soaking wet, and yet she's about to blow your minds.

She crouches down beside him, smiling reassuringly, apology in her eyes.]

I'm so sorry, Aimery... I don' know wha' happened over there, but--... [Somehow she feels like she's failed him. She sighs and shakes her head, moving her arms carefully under him to scoop him up (princess-style) with startling ease.]

I don't need to be- [Aimery had started pushing himself up onto his good leg when she scooped him up, making him flail a moment. Good lord that was embarrassing. He didn't struggle, and the sudden dizziness from being moved was a big warning sign, but Aimery was gonna complain anyway.]

You can put me down, I can walk, I just need someone to lean on. Nothing's broken.

[ I know your pain, Aimery, believe me. :| ] polarisation October 21 2010, 20:23:31 UTC
[ Sefton stands to move out of Seras' way, maintaining his own personal bubble, and continues staring at the feat of strength.

He's not normally one to try and change other peoples' minds, but when it comes to someone being injured, he's willing to make some exceptions. ]

... You'll just bleed faster if y'do.

[.../SIGH/ PRINCE style then. Jeezus.] the_police_girl October 21 2010, 20:31:07 UTC
Exac'ly.

[If she hadn't been fed recently, this would have proved difficult, considering how much blood there was. She carefully cradles him against her body as she moves back in the direction of the hostel.]

An' with your knee being "unsupportive" it's not going t'do you enny good either way.

[ That's better :3 ] inkstainedsword October 21 2010, 20:45:40 UTC
I have two knees, Seras.

[Nooot gonna argue THAT hard though, not with Sefton the Stubborn backing her up. Token protesting done, he leans against her and hooks his arm around Seras's neck...even though that kinda makes his chest start bleeding again. Sorry bout bleeding on your tits, Seras =/ ]

...Thank you. Just... try not to be seen?

[ Sigh. :| ] polarisation October 21 2010, 20:51:04 UTC
[ Sefton shakes his head to himself and simply keeps behind them. He's feeling pretty useless right now, so he won't be trying to make any sort of fuss, not when everything that can be done... is already being done. ]

[Dont you sigh at me :| ] the_police_girl October 21 2010, 21:02:06 UTC
[It's okay, she's not noticing too much. :|]

[Flatly:] Aww, shame. I wanted t'turn on my sirens. [Then with a slight chuckle:] But I doubt we'll re'lly draw enny attention. This kind'f thing 'appens oll th'time. No one's re'lly too affected ennymore.

Shall we turn this into a log, or keep up with action tags? inkstainedsword October 22 2010, 02:11:07 UTC
Well, I would be affected. I'll... hide my face.

[Before he does though, he spots Sefton being all worryface, so he shoots him a thankful smile (bloody and weird looking as it is, he's trying). He's grateful, Angstmagnet. Then it's face-hiding-in-shoulder time.]

Claire said she'll be waiting in the clinic, if you could...

[Goddamn being carried like a baby through the streets because he's a wimp about his leg suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks]

To be quite honest, Seras wasn't too keen on having to carry the poor man down the street either. She could only imagine the embarrassment, really... even if he wasn't the "uber masculine" type, it would have still been a tad humiliating to be carried, bloody and beaten, down a very public street all the way back home by a girl. ...a girl much smaller than you.

She had to smile to herself, however, at him burying his face against her; she didn't know if it was purely to hide his embarrassment, or if it was some form of comfort to have her there. Part of her wished it was the latter, but she wouldn't make too high of a bet on that; she was a girl again, after all.

"This is a formal request f'you t'tell me everything tha' happened while you were ou' there." she said, serious, but with an edge of facetiousness to it. "We can wait till later, but I 'ave t'know."

Aimery was enjoying the fact that it was, technically, a hug. Just a very supportive hug. That it was a hug, by someone who cared for him, wasn't enough to keep him for wishing it was over, really, really quickly.

"I'll tell you what I can, but there's a great deal I can't remember," he answered against her shoulder, then peeked over at Sefton. The boy better not mock him for this. "Apparently I'm missing a week."

Oh good, they were close to the hostel, he could see the doors just up ahead despite his dizziness.

Sefton frowned at the look from Aimery. He had kept to trailing behind and somewhat closer to the inner part of the sidewalk, hugging the buildings as they passed, which made it easy to notice when Aimery moved around.

"What?" he murmured, not quite understanding what the look was for.

When they got closer to the hostel, he slipped ahead and held the door open for them. It was the least he could do, despite being the jumpy bundle of nerves he had become after seeing Aimery's state on the network, then in person. Not to mention meeting someone who had been dead only a few days before.

"Olrigh'... well I wanna know wha' you can remember, after you've 'ad some time t'rest, of course." she said softly, strangely maternal about the whole ordeal.

Seras was a little too busy worrying about her terribly wounded boss/friend/king to really pay enough attention to Sefton to realize he was giving her a sort of strange look. It hadn't occurred to her exactly that it may be strange to see someone back from the dead.

She smiled appreciatively at the young man as she carried Aimery through the door, making their way to the clinic now.
