...it should have. The...everything happened so fast. All of the wires and screws and the way everything started bleeding pretty bad but I don't think I felt the pain at all. I was too focused on the adrenaline of it.
Yeah...the first time I used it it was part of the transformation, but when it all wore off the arm stayed. It didn't feel like it removed my arm or anything, just that it was like it was now a part of it.
[ and glancing at it does seem to reveal that with a closer look, the metal is more like a casing around his real arm, held in place with screws and attached to him seamlessly. ]
No! [ the reaction is a little extreme and he seems to know it, pausing again to calm down. ] ...no. I...maybe it'll remove itself the longer I'm here. And if it doesn't then I'll figure something out.
[ sometimes you have very specific fears about any sort of body alteration and you just don't say so. ]
...thanks. [ softly, and he stands still so she can continue what she's doing. ] It was definitely a lot worse than I thought. We were only in District 10, but we traveled pretty far through it.
Yeah. She told me a little bit about it, and Gregor did, too. I think that was the only reason I wasn't totally surprised. [ but now he's a little distracted. ] Have you never been that far before?
That's...maybe for the best. That's who we had to impersonate there. The Tingtang gang. We had to infiltrate to get a chance to play for the Bough at the casino.
Rodya wasn't even there. It was just me, Isabel and Charles. [ ... ] I think Isabel just used hers to test it out. I used mine because somebody stabbed me.
[ Yuri sighs, looking over the shoulder and applying some antiseptic tape over it. It might not do much, but it's something. She will never forgive The City for doing this to Shoma. ]
I think that's all I can do for now. We just have to wait for a recovery pod to be free and then it'll be your turn.
[ it's FIIIIINE. he winces a little when she places the antiseptic tape over the wound, but he'll have to heal it himself later. ]
It's more than I could've done myself, Yuri. So...thank you. [ ouchie. ] I guess I should try to learn more about first aid myself if this keeps happening but...I dunno. Maybe I was hoping it wouldn't again.
Yeah...I put mine aside when we first got here, so maybe I should look into that again. But...I'd like that. We can do it like a trade since we still have to try our cooking lessons, right?

Yuri's gaze moves over to Shoma's arm. ]
Your EGO... It gave you a mechanical arm? Rather, it forcibly put itself there?
[ What about Shoma's real arm?! ]

It changed a little when we got back here.

EGOs aren't supposed to stay on like that for so long... Do you want me to try and get it off you?

... It's okay if you don't want to, Shoma. I'll leave it alone.
[ She reaches to treat the shallower cuts. ]
I'm sorry that you had to experience The City for what it was. It was a lot, wasn't it?

[ Yuri smiles a little. ]
I'll teach you how to use it when you're no longer injured to this extent. Does that sound fair?

[ tradesies...whenever things calm tf down. ]

Yes. We'll learn a lot together, but only after you get better, okay?
no subject
That sounds good to me.
