[He dropped to his knees before the two swiftly, dropping his pack between him and Sanji. Paws already digging into it.]

Of course they ate drugged food. Idiots. I knew I should have gone with them! [he said while he pulled out a few flats and rolls of bandages.]

If it's poison, he needs to stop moving around and working it through his system. It'll just make him weaker as he---it's already too late for that, isn't it? [Idiot. How many times can he call you guys an Idiot?]

Stop the bleeding. We need to stop the bleeding and---you have a spear head in your shoulder! I can't just yank it out! You could bleed out faster!

[He let out a small growl at that, leaning in to try and take a look at it. To see if it goes through or just lodged there. Then shakes his head, pushing Sanji a roll of gauze.]

Help me stop the bleeding long enough to get him rowed out to the ship. I didn't bring more then a few things with me! Careful with the burns.

[and he moved in to try and check for deeper wounds, to cover and hold those down. He intends to do this fast. Suck it up, swordsmen. It's gonna hurt.]

I'm sure I can stop the poison once I'm on ship.

[stirs a little from the worry in Bepo's voice but it still mostly asleep.]

Calm down. Zoro'll be okay...

[tries to rub his eye but his fist gets caught to the sticky place on his forehead. Oh well. Back to sleep again]

I don't know if it's actually poison. [Or he doesn't want it to be poison, at least...] Whatever it was knocked them out so...so they could be killed and eaten.

[Ugh.

He takes the gauze, quickly going to work on some of Zoro's wounds.]

But they're awake now, which means it ain't as strong as it was. It's fading. And if it was poison, the shitty cannibals wouldn't be able to...do their thing. Right?

[Maybe? Like he really has any fucking clue. It's possible whatever they doused them with is just something the people here are immune to. Sanji's still hoping for a drug that's effects are slowly wearing off.

He spares Luffy a glance, not really wanting to know what that stickiness is either.]

...Brook can handle the bath.

[He doesn't care if it hurts, he can take it. Zoro lets the two of them work in peace, he's just going to take a little nap now. His head wilts onto Sanji's shoulder and then he's gone, so yank on those bandages all you want, he won't feel it.]

[he heard Luffy, and he wanted to point a claw at him and mouth off at his words. OF COURSE he's going to be alright. They both were. BEPO would see to it for forever be shamed. He really wished Captain Law was here though.]

[When Zoro sagged into Sanji, he hissed, carefully wrapping over the shoulder wound before shaking his head. He hadn't brought enough for them.]

I don't know. If it's fading out of their system, that will make things easier, but I still want to be careful. Do you think you can carry him or Luffy?

[Nods, looking down at Zoro for a moment, then over to Luffy, before back to Bepo.]

Yeah, either one. Or both if you want to go ahead and get your shit ready. What's easiest?

[with both of them out, he frowns deeply, then nods to Luffy]

I'll take that idiot. If you can get Zoro, lets get them back to the row boat. We can shove off to the ship and get them some proper care.

[he moved to grab his pack, shoving it over arms again, and then towards Luffy]

Let's be fast. I don't like how much blood I smell.

[Nods again, then jostles Zoro a bit.]

Oi. Dumbass shitty green marimo swordsman. Come on, we're going back to the ship.

[He forces Zoro to sit up a bit then shifts in front of him, pulling Zoro's arms over his shoulders and trying to at least be a little mindful of his shoulder. His hands find the back of Zoro's knees and then he grunts and pushes himself to his feet, leaning forward slightly so Zoro doesn't slide off as he hefts him into a piggyback position.]

[He lets Sanji get Zoro up and moving, or more... moving him via piggy back. Mean while Bepo moved to take up Luffy, trying to be careful but also fast. the sooner they are back at the boat the better.]

[He didn't have anything else to say to Sanji. They both knew how important this was to get them back and looked after. So he just lead the way and helped get them to the medical room on the ship.]

[Once there they're going to have to do some spear head removal. :| Sanji, are you ready to be a nurse today?]

[TOOOOTALLY. 8|

Sanji drops Zoro onto the table as soon as they're in the medical room -- bastard is heavier than he looks. Then he glances up at Bepo, waiting for instructions.]

[good, because as much confidence as he might show in his work, he really isn't that confident. Still, just being here for a few months and feeling he had to keep the health of these people up, he's learned a lot more then he knew before coming here.]

[Like which plants to mix, which to use and how.]

[Bepo put Luffy on the second bed, leaving him there for now, turning to see Sanji putting a knocked out Zoro down. His heart felt rattled, but he had to buckle down and do this right.]

Please. I'll need help in order to do this fast. If you can heat some water and clean him up a bit? I've got some things to mix. Then we'll remove that spear head.

[He didn't wait for a reply. He's sure Sanji will help him with out trouble. He instead moved to a wooden cabinet and started to pull out things he needed. He wanted to mix two different things, and he had to do it fast]

[Welcome to Bepo's kitchen]

[Looks back down to Zoro, then nods.]

On it.

[He disappears back through to the galley, and when he returns a few minutes later he's got a a pitcher full of warm water, an empty bowl, and a stack of towels. He's quick to get to work, only grimacing at Zoro for a moment in a disapproving 'how the hell did you manage to get yourself fucked up this badly, you idiot' kind of way.]

[he gave a nod, letting Sanji go and do as asked. He's glad it's Sanji here to help him, as out of all of them so far he feels Sanji is the most capable. He's grown to hold a good respect for the cook now too. Go figure.]

[While he was gone, Bepo got to work, washing his paws very well, pulling out clean white operational gloves, and skipping the rest of the gear to move faster. Checking a book he had slapped open fast and pulling things from here and there he worked. Pestle and mortar ground a few things together. A splash of this, a small growl when he thinks there is too much of one thing or not enough of another.]

[When he's done, Sanji has had time to clean Zoro up enough for this. He brought the small dish with him and a piece of thick leather. Sitting his tools to the side of the table, he tried not to think about what if he messed this up. Why wasn't Captain here. He could do this with no trouble, instantly, sew it up and be done. Bepo can't do this. He stares at Zoro a moment, worried he'll mess it up.]

[With a blink, he snaps out of it, looking to Sanji and holds him the strip of leather.] I know he's knocked out, but try to fit this between his teeth. Just in case. [He's seen a guy break his teeth while passed out.]

[Hovering over the wound, he slathers it with a greenish purple paste, frowning at it. His paws are a little shaky as he mumbles to... perhaps Zoro, but most likely Sanji]

I... don't know if I can do this...

[JUST SO MUCH FROWNING as he wipes at the various cuts and wounds. The bowl is quickly filled with reddened towels as he cleans away as much blood as he can. When Bepo hands him the strip of leather, he makes sure his hands are clean before taking it and leaning over Zoro to pry his mouth open and fit it inside. He's not as gentle as he could be, but the dumbass can handle it.

Once it's in place, he looks back to Bepo for more instructions.

...Only to find him hesitating and looking uncertain of things, before he mumbles something that Sanji just barely catches.]

You do know.

[He injects as much certainty into his voice as he can.]

It's just a shitty spearhead, it ain't gonna be a problem for you. Look -- Bepo.

[Sanji jabs a finger toward Zoro's chest, pointing out the long scar that cuts across him diagonally there.]

This idiot's nearly been cut in half before, and I don't know what the hell happened there.

[Follows that up with an annoyed gesture at his eye.]

So this little thing? It's fucking nothing. And you're good at what you do. You'll be fine, and so will he. Shit, he'll probably snore straight through it because he's a moron.

[He's not looking at Sanji, but he's taking in what is said. He's carefully using a finger to spread this stuff around the arrow head, knowing it will numb the area but also slow bleeding once it is pulled out. He's figured that much out from reading.]

[The thoughts that he just helps those on his crew and he's not really good at this kinda thing hits him again. Stupid Straw Hats. He's a Navigator, not a Doctor.]

[But Zoro is precious to Luffy. So is everyone on his damn crew. He knows they are tough. All of them can manage on their own. He's not really needed here other then to make things a bit simpler.]

[But... he can't be useful to this crew if he can't fix the small wounds. And if these idiots keep eating poisoned food, so help him--]

Right. [his hands steady, glancing over at Sanji for a moment in a silent thanks. A sharp nod and he moved to work.] This...

[He paused, then got that concentrating look on his face. Sorry Sanji, he just needed that vote of confidence. Thank you.] This mixture will slow the bleeding once I pull it. We can pack it and let it sit for a little bit. If it's a poisoned spear, it'll pull that out. I think.

Nothing he hasn't dealt with before. You're right.

[mentally he goes through the process one step ahead of what he was physically doing. Large paws move to pull the spear head, and as soon as he does it wells up with blood. A large pad of gauze soaked in this purple green stuff is then placed over it, soaking up blood like it should.]

[His other hand holds out the spear to Sanji to take.]

[Nods once just to show he's got Bepo's back here, then watches as he does his thing and gets the spearhead out. He takes it when Bepo hands it over, making a face as he stares down at it.]

Geez. That idiot. Should we wrap it?

[He's reaching for a roll of gauze even as he asks.]

[Now that he’s actually doing it, he’s just... doing it. His paws held the gause there a moment, putting light pressure.]

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]

The rest of these aren't too bad.

[He sets the gauze back down and eyes Zoro all over.]

Some are deeper than others, but I don't know if they need stitches. This kinda shit he's pretty used to.

[Then he blinks at the soft question, and can't help letting out a light laugh.]

Because they are.

[Really, who can explain it?]

They're fuckin' idiots. Luckily they got us to back 'em up.

[snorts awake. Blinks. Gets up and begins to amble toward the galley, still bleeding a bit and muttering something like "meshi" as he goes]

[He nodded. This one seemed to be the worst. Bad enough that it might even scar. When he was done he clipped the string and sighed, using the paste on the gauze and placed it over top, then he’d use Sanji’s help for wrapping it.]

He might be used to it, but I’m not. We Heart Pirates aren’t as reckless as you guys. I mean, we get into our fair amount of problems, but nothing like Luffy and you do.

And... [homesick, homesick, homesick...] Captain is the best Doctor on the seas.

[finishing bandaging him up, he started to peel the ruined gloves off his paws, looking at Sanji, a bit more proud] I like it though, working with you Straw Hats.

[and then he looks completely annoyed as he realizes Luffy is up and moving] HEY! Sit your butt down! What are you doing! [Yelling at Luffy, awww, he fits in here so well.]

Edited 2014-04-30 22:13 (UTC)

[Makes a considering sound.]

Mm, Law might be good [though fuck if Sanji knows] but I think our shitty emergency food supply has everyone beat.

[He gives Bepo a half-grin.]

But we like having you with us, too.

[Then his eyes lower.]

...Since this ain't the first time it's been a good thing we have you on board.

[His gaze snaps up again when Bepo starts yelling, and he finds Luffy and lets out a bark of a laugh.]

Don't worry, that's practically his fucking instant cure. Oi, Luffy, get back in the damn bed, I'll bring the food to you.

H-hey now. [Not you too! Do you mean him as an emergency food supply?! Damn it don’t take pointers from Ace! But... he was grinning a bit more at Sanji for that. It helped to hear.]

I’m just glad I can help. Though these idiots need to slow down a bit on the bleeding. [he grumbled softly. Leaving Zoro to rest a moment there and moving to Luffy.] Instant cute or not, he doesn’t need to be moving around.

[And he’ll try to get Luffy back to the bed. He needed to take care of him now anyhow.] While you get food, Sanji, I think I can clean him up a bit. Then he can have his instant cure.
