gives you a general wound overview: he has like, stab wounds everywhere. it's his shoulder, his legs, and in his stomach. they look like someone was trying to run him through with a sword with the shoulder and stomach, but the legs are more shallow, thinner. one of his arms is just absolutely useless - a gouge near the inner elbow/forearm, something that looks like it was made with some sort of sharp teeth. it's messy. there's also some sort of gouge-y bite wound on his shoulder, too.
he's got slash marks across his face, too. kind of claw like. and his left ear is ripped in half - it's missing the top half of it, so he's just got half an ear. it's all bandaged as much as it can be.
he's sitting up in bed because nobody could convince him to lay down, and he's just staring at a wall. if they don't say anything, he doesn't seem to notice they're there. ]
What is with this place and messing with our heads...
[ a pause, and they will very hesitant reach over to place a hand on... a spot... that isn't horrifically injured. it's a very light touch, barely ghosting him. ]
I suppose that is what happens when you make so many companions. You take care of them and they will leap at the first opportunity to care for you in turn.

eventually, they will approach the bed. ]
Jiaoqiu?

he does not notice, but when they finally speak he startles so hard it hurts, and then winces and grips at his bandages. oopsies. ]
no subject
saber just rushes over, reaching out and–pausing. they do not want to touch him in case there are injuries that aren't super obvious. ]
Are you okay?
no subject
I... I'm fine. [ he frowns, his fingers digging into his arm. a beat. ] Siffrin?
[ no, wrong ]
no subject
[ they will wait to see if he recognizes the name at all. gazes. ]
no subject
Saber. [ ... ] No, yes. Of course. Saber. My apologies.
[ there is recognition there! ]
no subject
Are you having trouble... remembering? Or seeing...?
no subject
I can barely see you. I recognize your voice, for now.
no subject
[ sir there is likely going to be a murder tonight. ]
What do you mean, for now?
no subject
[ yeah he's not happy about it!!! it's fine, he'll manage probably. ]
I was not myself, in the place we found ourselves. I've forgotten I don't belong there a few times already.

At least, this should be gone by Saturday.
no subject
I should hope so. Carrying on through a trial as a high school student from Virginia seems inefficient.
no subject
It did for us and the previous group, at least. Are you going to stay here for the night?
no subject
I'm not sure. Wherever the others go I'll likely follow.
no subject
[ they just wanted to make sure he wasn't going to fuckin. curfew alone while horrifically injured and also apparently partially blind. so. ]
You should let others take care of you for once.
no subject
I fear I don't have much choice.
[ for as proud as he is, there's like ten people who are so ready to make his ass sit down. ]
