Not yet. This will numb it, slow the bleeding and help it heal. [he pulled the gauze back and looked at it, then started to work.] He needs it cleaned, and stitches. Then we can wrap it. Please check to see if he has any other deep wounds. If they aren’t too bad, we can just bandage those after they are cleaned.

[honestly, having Sanji here helped get him into the right frame of mind now. He took up a syringe of clean water and shot it through the wound, cleaning it out, and shortly after, when clear that he felt it was clear of objects, he started to stitch it together, tongue between his teeth and concentrating.]

[He wasn’t even shaking as he did it, very steady and careful.]

Why are they so stupid... [asked very softly, honestly concerned about these idiots]
