he'll give everyone a bit of time in the medpods because well. all of the healing they need to do but eventually he'll peek his head into the medbay and see if aoi is up and around at any point.]
[ after about three hours in the pods, aoi can be found sitting up in a medbay bed. she's not all better, but she's not bleeding out from several open stab wounds, so it's a huge improvement. ]

You doing alright?
no subject
Yup. Aoi's all better now.
[ no she's not?! ]
no subject
You know, I'm an expert at the "definitely all better" trick, so don't try and pull one on me.
no subject
... Aoi's mostly better. Aoi's better enough.
no subject
[He offers it out though? then snatches it back.]
Yours if you promise to get back in that damned thing at some point and finish healing. I know it's fucking boring.
no subject
... Aoi will get back in later.
It's really boring...
no subject
[offering it out for real this time.]
Just go in while you're sleeping or something, at least then you don't have to sit there and think.
no subject
Thank you.
[ ... ]
Good idea. Aoi could be unconscious...!
no subject
[He almost does make a move to snatch it again, but she seemed so excited for it he feels bad.]
... You're alright? You all came stumbling out of there pretty quickly.
no subject
Boop boop... Aoi was hurt the least... But everyone's still alive... So everyone is alright.
no subject
[Just leaning against something, one leg crossing over the other.]
no subject
Shi Qingxuan's leg came off while Aoi was pulling her, though...
no subject
She's alive at all, and it's likely thanks to you.
no subject
Aoi really only dragged her. Aoi wasn't able to fight or protect anyone...
no subject
Putting a hand on her head.]
Doesn't make it less of a good turn, to do what it is in your power to do.
no subject
Got it. It's better than nothing...!
no subject
[Digging in his coat again? Wow. A second coronet. Bribery.]
I mean that. I think this place seeks to test us, and when asked if you would save yourself or help others, you chose to try and help.
no subject
Aoi's not sure about the rest of the test, though... Not sure if we made the right choices...
no subject
... I felt the same, after. So I'm not sure I have any satisfactory answers there.
no subject
[ she holds onto this one instead of getting right into it. ]
... We had to choose between resting and recalibrating. But we were really really tired. It was almost impossible to pick anything else.
