[ His best friends wouldn't hesitate to throw him off a cliff, so maybe he's the problem. ]

Hahaha~ Makes sense, makes sense~ Then, sorry for the intrusion...

[ Hieke makes a good case, so Kano slips on inside, meandering on over to the wall with all the creepy stuff floating in it- everything looks a lot creepier in the dark, and he still can't tell what's alive and what's not. ]

[That isa possibility.]

It's not a problem at all. I'm glad you're here.

[He reaches over to flip on the lights, before making his way over to his desk. It takes him a moment, but he eventually pulls out the report Ekkehardt filed about Kano's arm.]

Now, you haven't been experiencing any pain or numbness, have you?

[ A WHOLE REPORT....... ]

Mmm... Not much numbness, but pain. That's sort of new.

[ Like, today new. Glass stuck in his arm sort of new. ]

[Ekkehardt is a Professional, at least when trashcans aren't involved.

And the mention of pain is about when Hieke's brain kicks in, and he notices the fact that Kano is, in fact, injured. Right now.]

Seriously?

[He can't help but sound incredulous, as he crosses over to Kano and motions for him to hold out his arm.]

What happened?

Hm, well...

[ Kano complies easily enough, letting parts of his illusion fall off so that he can show off his bare arm- it's the underside, mostly, that's cut up, having been held in front of his face to fend off a trigger-happy Toki wielding a glass panel. Deep cuts, some glass that's large enough to just pull out but he'd decided against it because that's what keeping the blood inside, that sort of thing. ]

It was either this, or dying! So I chose this!! You'll help me out, won't you?

[There's a frown on Hieke's face as he looks it all over, and he sighs before holding a hand over some of the largest pieces of glass.]

This shouldn't hurt, but it might feel a little strange.

[Using magic to pull out the glass is more sanitary than using his hands, after all, and comes with the benefit of pain-relief at the same time.]

Did you jump through a window or something?

Nope~ I make sure to open my windows before I jump out, don't worry, don't worry~

[ It's a wonder why he'd been allowed to live on the third floor for so many years, but he'd never dragged himself to the infirmary with much more than a broken arm or two, so this is tame, comparatively. ]

This is one of those situations that probably won't happen again, so you won't ask for details, will you?

Oh, good.

[The cuts clear of glass, Hieke turns to actually healing them. It's simple enough to have the flesh knit itself back together.]

I get the feeling you wouldn't tell me any details even if I asked, so you can keep your secrets - as long as you make sure this doesn't happen again.

[ Ugh, it's so gross seeing the flesh and skin pull back together like that, but Kano stares at it in morbid curiosity anyways, thankful at least that Hieke's magic doesn't leave the normal scarring of non-magic healing... normal time healing, normal healing. Whatever it's called. ]

Yep, yep, I promise~ Can I keep the glass?

[You don't have to look!!]

Uh- [...Does he want to know?] I. I mean, I guess you can?

[ He has to look..... Maybe someday he needs to recreate this or something similar and the only way he can get that illusion to look right is if he forces himself to observe everything no matter how much it makes him sick. (he doesn't need to. he thinks he does.) ]

Great, you're the best! Is there a clean jar anywhere I can keep them in? I'll be careful with it, too~

[Kano. Please. Love yourself maybe a little bit and take it easy.]

Yeah, give me a second.

[The infirmary is incredibly well-stocked and organized so it doesn't take very long to find a jar to put all the glass in and hand to Kano.]

Do you- do you want to rinse the blood off or nah?

[ Uh... Blood is also gross and he doesn't really want it back, but can it be useful? Theoretically it can, and he's all for packratting away anything he thinks might be useful. But it's so gross? What to do. ]

Hm~ You can't put it back into my arm, can you? That'd be nice!!

[ Put it back where it came from so that he has it, but he also doesn't have to look at it anymore. ]

Edited 2019-01-31 02:09 (UTC)

[That's. Well.

That's certainly a question. Hieke looks a little confused, and he looks between the glass and Kano before shrugging a little helplessly.]

I've never...tried to do that before? It might be possible, but I don't know if that would have any benefit...

[It's Just Blood. You've got plenty of blood being produced in your body, Kano. You really don't need extra.]

[ It's not extra blood! It's his blood! That was originally in his body!

Kano sticks his arm out again, very seriously. ]

Please return my blood back into my body. Do I have to like... slash my arm open again so you can get it inside?

[It's extra blood!! It's definitely been replaced by now!!]

Then you'd just end up with even more blood outside of your body...

[He looks between the glass and Kano again, before settling the jar down on his desk. He's not really sure this is possible?]

I could probably just make your skin porous enough to absorb it.

[ That's so gross. That's so fucking gross and he doesn't want to see that but ughhhhhh. ]

Like a sponge? If it works, it works! I'm trusting you to do your stuff!

[You still don't have to look! If you have to recreate it you...probably can...]

Right.

[Right. He takes a moment to focus, pulling the blood off the glass and through the air, before - well. It won't feel like much and it won't look like much, but the blood passes through the air and through Kano's skin. It feels a bit odd, from Hieke's end, because he's not used to manipulating someone's body in some way.

But luckily for Kano, he's good at what he does and there shouldn't be any lasting damage.]

You might want to be careful with your arm for a few days. Please don't break it again.

[ Ohhhh my god, this is so gross and he feels a little sick watching it, but all of that is kept off his face behind a bland smile as he tries his hardest not to tear his arm away from Hieke's grasp at the sensation of lukewarm blood seeping back into his arm. Goddddd. This is the worst. ]

I gotcha~ [ He tentatively takes his arm back once Hieke is done and rolls the sleeve down to cover it. ]

I'll take good care of it! It won't... uh... leak, or anything, will it?

[It's Fine. It's just...

Okay. This entire situation is definitely a little bizarre, but Hieke thinks this might just be a Human Things. Humans are always up to something weird.]

Good. And no, your skin should be as functional as ever, though it might be a little bit more susceptible to bruising for a few days. I've never done that before, after all.

[ FYI Kano is going to come back in like. 2-3 IC weeks after this thread with his arm broken again, so "taking good care of it" is really just him doing his best but these things just happen. It's unavoidable!! ]

Oh man, I'll have to avoid Ellie for a couple days, huh? But alright, alright~ I'll let you know how it turns out, so you'll know for next time!

[Kano!!! You're going to give Hieke grey hair!!]

thanks, but I'm really hoping there won't be a next time.

[Most people don't really care about getting their blood back, after all.]

Haha~ I hope there won't be, either! I'll come hang out again, okay?

[ INEVITABLY. ]
