Well I know it's not ideal, [ Matt protests, a bit sheepish. It's no secret that he's not much of a healer and a baby in the world of combat, but he doesn't want people thinking he literally knows nothing about how bodies work. ] It wasn't an injury proper, though. More like ... what Tezcatlipoca had to do to work the magic he wanted.

[ A fragment of memory passes through Communion: a gleaming black sphere, violet at the edges; the scent of blood. No slashing, hacking, or visible gore. ]

So I was wondering if you could tell me what to do to take care of him. Or take a look yourself, if you have time. I closed the wound, but he's in pain. I don't know what might be going on internally.

Fever, nausea, abdominal swelling, [ Matt repeats, with the focused intensity of someone committing words to memory--or, in his case, committing them to a mantra. ] Okay, I can keep an eye out for that.

Ass is currently sat down, I'm guilt-tripping [ slash honey-trapping ] him into staying that way.

I do have painkillers, but they're mostly herbs? So anything you can spare on that front would be very appreciated. And, uh ...

[ Sigh. ]

I'm guessing whiskey wasn't a great idea? I did also get him to drink a little water.

[ Matt laughs guiltily. ]

You're really good, [ he approves. ] Uh ... I think I'm okay, but I'd definitely sleep a lot better if a professional came and checked him out. Like you said, the internal stuff. It's complicated.

[ Matt's psychic presence is still weary, but he perks up undeniably at the prospect of Gavial coming over. ]

There's a spare key in the potted plant out front, [ he adds. ] I meant to give you one anyway, so you can just hang onto it.

[ He can picture it, for sure. A wave of relief and gratitude ripples across their connection, leaving Matt perceptibly more peaceful in its wake. ]

Thank you.

[ Sleepier, too. His whole yawn doesn't pass through Communion, but the soft halt to his thoughts is palpable. With a tone that implies a little grin, he adds: ] I'll try to restrain myself.

... No promises, though. Now that I'm a grizzled combat veteran.
