[Hei appears in his black coat this time, right after this. He almost collapses the moment he steps onto the Plane, but he manages to stay standing. He's pale and haggard and is clutching a rather nasty gash on his side which looks like it was made by a sword or perhaps a metal pole thrown at high speed. He's bleeding quite a bit.

Once he has steadied himself, he makes his way to the closest solid object, which happens to be the bar, and he sits down with his back to it. He winces as he presses harder at the wound. Not fatal, he decides, but he's not going anywhere anytime soon either.]

Think I need a medic...

[Smirks up at her.] Work-related accident.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

It looks really bad. [Frowns at him, but quickly returns to her usual self.] But you came out victorious, right~?

[contract_star]

Heh, it's not as bad as it looks. [Smirks again.] I'm alive, aren't I?

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

So it was another one of those Contractors? [Grins.] Touché!

[contract_star]

...Sort of.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

Sort of?

[contract_star]

Moratoria. They're different from normal Contractors. They can't control their abilities at all, so they're...unpredictable. [Doesn't really want to explain it past that.]

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

They sound really dangerous. [Duh, Mion. ] And they aren't the ones you're usually fighting?

[contract_star]

No. They're rare. Or they're supposed to be. [Frowns. He is Not Happy.]

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

They're not anymore? [Ruh-roh. D:]

[contract_star]

[Grimly,] Five of them appearing over the course of a week makes them fairly less rare, yes. [Grits his teeth because that gash still hurts, ow...]

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

Mmm, that sounds really suspicious. [And, oops! Mion's looking worried again.] Is there anything I can do to help?

[contract_star]

[Presses harder on it; the blood is starting to stop flowing.] I don't suppose you have any clean bandages with you...?

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

Ah, no, but! [Mion pulls off her vest, folds it in half, and moves to press it against the wound. RIP vest.] If you hold that there, I can go home and find some.

[contract_star]

[OW. But he's actually grateful.] Alright, that'll be good...[Holds the vest against the wound. Sorry, vest.] Thank you.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

Of course! [Mion smiles, promptly disappears, and is gone for a good fifteen minutes. When she returns, she's holding some tape, bandage wraps, and carrying a small bento box. She sets the box down on the bar.] Here, let me see it.

[contract_star]

[Waits patiently, and the blood is actually slowing now. When she comes back he lets her go to work, not saying anything.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

[Mion grabs her vest and pushes Hei's shirt up a bit more, before placing it directly back over the wound. Grabbing the bandages, she proceeds to wrap them around Hei's torso to help with compression and blood absorption, and then uses the tape to keep the bandages in place.] There, that should help a little.

[contract_star]

[Inspects the bandage.] You're pretty good at this.

[Hands her back the vest, smiling wryly.] I think I might have ruined your vest, though.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

[She grins at Hei.] I guess it's one of those things that's good to know.

[Frowns, but!] Don't worry about it. I can probably get my hands on another one.

[contract_star]

It is. A very handy talent.

[Looks guilty.] I'd be willing to pay for it...

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

Well, if you ever need to get bandaged up again, you know who to come to~!

Really? You don't have to... [And then her eyes widen, because she just remembered something.]

Here. [Mion grabs the bento box and hands it to Hei.] They're leftovers from dinner last night. Figured it'd be a good idea if you ate something.

[contract_star]

I want to. I'll bring the money next time, how does that sound?

[Bento? Food? Hooray!] Ah, Mion, you didn't have to do that...[Beams at her.] Thank you.

[demonsblood.livejournal.com]

O-oh, okay! If you insist.

Mn, I know it's not as much as you usually eat, but it's better than nothing. [Smiles.]

[contract_star]

[Nods.

[:3 Hei is very happy right now. He digs into the bento.] Mm, this is really good.
