he looks a little surprised at the gesture... weh. and then, eventually, slowly, acquiesces, his hands drop away from his face, and he turns his face away from the pod long enough to hold out his hands. if she's particularly eagle eyed (single) she can see that his hands are shaking. ]
...You are truly kind, Yuri. [ his voice is very soft. throné hates the smell of blood, after all. it's something he's known about her for a long time, now. ] Thank you.
[ Yuri knew when Throne had gone through Viktor's corpse last week. She also thinks it would be nice for Throne to wake up to Temenos not being bloody. ]
... Of course.
[ She smiles and starts wiping Temenos's hands and face... wherever she can clean that Temenos would be comfortable with. ]
Throne will be okay. She'll be healed like you did last week. She may be missing a leg, but I'm sure she will get used to prosthetics in no time since she's really good at so many things.
[ uweh. he just lets her? yuri's got a way of breaking down his walls, as of late - and besides, honestly, he's kind of a mess. even if outwardly he seems (relatively) okay. relatively calm, he's a wreck, and every piece of fractured stained glass shows it. logically, it's probably better that he gets cleaned off, that someone else does it, and there's something about the touch that reminds him of castti, so he submits to it without any worry, letting his eyes close.
the glass continues onto his hands, wrapping around his fingertips - a blue sacred flame, a lamb at the top of his hand. ]
...So she will be. [ he says, eventually. ] Though, the efficiency of them leaves much to be desired.
[ the pods are very, very slow, in temenos' opinion. ]
We will likely stay in here, tonight. I don't want her to leave the healing pod if at all necessary. [ a little huff. ] Cleric's orders.
Good. I will fully expect to see her all healed up and seeing you two by each other's side tomorrow, bantering... maybe catching another octopuff or two if it shows up on the ship again.
[ The pods are very slow, so Yuri would agree with Temenos there. Yuri finishes clean Temenos's face and hands, even taking care of under his fingernails. She wants him to be as clean as he possible can be right now. ]
You two are clearly important to each other. You're each other's family. That sort of bond... can't be broken by anyone.
[ help, this lecture. it's an important lecture, though, and he crooks a bit of a smile in her direction, wry. warmer, a little less tired. ]
Understood. [ hopefully they don't have to chase rosamund around. poor octopuff rosamund.
yuri calls them family, and... well. some of the stained glass on his face melts away. it doesn't crack this time so much as just receding, starting to slowly vanish. they are family. beyond - beyond the speculation that he's had, here and there, all of the travelers are. temenos and throné, perhaps in particular. ]
What a lovely thing to say. [ lightly, but, he doesn't disagree. ] It is hard to watch her suffer, and this place has been terribly cruel to her, so far.
[ one way or the other - physically, or mentally. ]
It's a lovely thing to say... It was Throne who told me that when we talked for the first time--that she considers you her family. You told me to live on, but I want you to live on too, with Throne. Both of you.
...aw. that's sweet - he looks maybe a little surprised, but it fades quickly, as he turns his face away. still, yuri can see him smile, a way that's a little more genuine here, too. ]
You've become awfully wise, my little lamb. [ teasing because that's just kind of how he deals with having emotions. ] ... We will certainly do our best, barring the conditions. Our journey has yet to end.
You're right. This journey won't end any time soon, so we will have to be trucking on. Show the Pontiff how far you've come. I'm sure... he would be proud.

She gets up and gets some wet wipes from somewhere around the medbay and returns to Temenos's side. ]
Let's get you cleaned up a little. Throne wouldn't want to see you all bloody here, especially since it's hers.
