Anyone out there know how to do stitches? Asking for a friend.

On a completely unrelated note what to do with a concussion and possible brain damage?

[Quieter.]

...The brain damage is old don't worry about it.

Who, Cloud? Nah he did the bashin'.

I'm allowed to call Squall brain damaged I've known him longer than anyone.

Bit too far out for a hospital, it's alright I think we got magic laying around here somewhere.

Interesting.

But yes, you are free to call your friends what you want. Perhaps see if Cloud has one of his magic orb things around. And your friend with a possible concussion, if you are still worried bring him by my room and I can look him over.

Yeah, I'll see about getting him stable and back into town here soon. Just gotta get my own head back in place. Actually...

[The phone moves away but yelling can still be heard.]

Leonhart I'm takin' one of your belts!

[Nailed it.]

[Oh dear. Sounds like they had fun.]

How many people do you normally cook for? Let me handle that for you tonight. I don’t know how effective Cloud’s magical healing is, if you are using his. If he has another materia orb for that. Anyway let me make sure you guys are fed, since I can’t help with the stitches?

[It was a blast! Until it wasn't.]

Errr... [Hang on he has to count.] Three, sometimes four? If Ven shows up five. Feed the kid, he doesn't know how to cook. I think a night off cooking might be in order.

[He's admittedly a little woozy and that's not going to be conducive to standing over a stove.]

I'll make extra, just in case your count is off somewhere. Please tell Cloud I'll have some for him as well. High protein at that. I'll have it ready in the kitchen. Do you have any estimate for when you might return?

Anywhere from one to three hours. Depending. I'll let him know.

That's... a window. I'll see about something I can keep heated. If you can pin that down any narrower, please let me know. I'll also see about getting some sports drinks. If you were in a position where you injured yourselves like that, I half worry there was something strenuous going on.

I'll let you know when something changes. Right now it looks like we're waiting on some vague medical assistance.

[They could definitely use electrolytes.]

Those drinks won't be a bad call.

Anything else? I mean, I would be able to do a grocery run for anything you need.

[Congratulations, Seifer. Guess who gets to be on the receiving end of David's worry and fussing?]

Only other thing I can think of is ice. We've got some help on the way, should be back before you know it.

[He is confused by the worrying but he'll accept it. They're soldiers, they're used to functioning while injured.]

[And he's a doctor. Sorta. Worrying about other people's help is his job. Especially because he's used to young people getting hurt for stupid reasons.]

Take care getting back. Don't speed. I don't want to get called into the hospital for an overload shift because you guys got hurt even worse.

Cadet's honor.

[There's a small snicker there, they don't have much honor. But yeah they'll try to get back without incident. No one needs that. And hey, he's not that much younger than David! He thinks.]

Is that like a Boy Scout?

[He's very confused. And David got hurt for stupid reasons too. He's not excluding himself from the list.]

If a Boy Scout is like a soldier, sure.

[He doesn't know of Boy Scouts.]

Uh... it's really not.

I'm just... not going to ask.

What, soldiers weird to you or somethin'?

No, it just seems private.

[Not even young soldiers are weird to him. And Seifer seemed legal.]

Your potential military training probably isn't my business, right? That's your home life. Not your here life.

Doesn't matter. It's who I am and who I was. I don't know anything else.

[Oh, he's legal now. Technically legal by the standards of his world as well but his world is a bucket of fucked up.]

Fair enough. I just don't feel like prying into a past like that is fair without offering one's own forward.

Understandable. Guess I just don't consider that part very private. Like how most people have families, you talk about 'em. It just is.

Well, if you ever do wish to speak about it, I'm here. I can offer you some stories about the school I went to that ended up training soldiers when it was only supposed to teach.

Sounds similar, maybe we've got something in common there.

Perhaps. If you're a mutant.

Nope, just a child soldier magically enhanced until I might as well be.
