[ he will begin to work. unfortunately, yes, he does need to dig into the wound to try to clean out whatever it was laced with. he's going to have to go and make something for elysium to take as well. ]
You weren't already greedy?
[ he can hear docybara playing in the river behind them, so at least they don't have to be concerned over him while this is happening. ]
[ as much as he wants to make a smart comment back
this is rather painful and he's dealing with a flare up of his symptoms all at the same time, so yippee. digging his fingernails into the dirt it is…!!
instead of trying to live as two slugs they should endeavour to be two well-kept capybaras, actually. look at him go… ]
[ it takes an uncomfortably long time, mainly because thorns wants to be as thorough as possible now; it's going to take some time before they reach somewhere with a clinic for him to get better care.
at the very least, thorns is much more used to having to do things like this in less than ideal conditions after spending time on his ship. ]
... Okay, there. Don't move, I'm going to make you something.
[ it does mean elysium has to let go so thorns can go through their belongings five feet away. ]
[ ah... he leans down to kiss him again before hurrying off to grab an assortment of different vials. he does have to make a fire for this, so elysium can watch as he gets to work on that. ]

[ thorns doesn't know how many times elysium's had to watch him die… or maybe he does?
… he shifts to his side just to get a better view of thorns, watching him as if trying to read some kind of answer in his expression. what did ]
no subject

I need you to drink this. It tastes bad.

Will you kiss me before and after?
