Characters: Lavi, Elizabeth Tudor, and maybe Lenalee Li
When: Soon after the battle with Credinta
Where: Apartments, first floor, random-unclaimed room
Rating: PG?
Summary: Lavi gets a talking to by a(/two) powerful woman(/women).

[Lavi had managed to keep his mouth shut the entire journey to the apartment building even though he was in intense pain despite the help from Raven and Kiriko. He had learned his lesson, most definitely, don't ever go up against a tank.

Part of him was glad that they hadn't used airplanes to bomb the ruined city. He had no idea how to combat them now if his hammer didn't work.

So he's sulking in his new and uncomfortable bed, longing for his own room on the top floor but injured as he was it was sort of impractical to cart him up there. The door is cracked but for now he's dozing as best he can while in pain, broken bones tend to make sleeping impossible to get.

[He stirs slightly at the sound of Lenalee's knock, letting out a sleepy and pained grunt.]

I don't want...anymore medicine...Kiriko...

[chrysalis_ex]

But I'm not Kiriko. [ Gently, and hiding her smile. ]

1/2

[outsidehistory]

[Opening his eye, looking at the door.]

Lenalee?

[outsidehistory]

[Shi-shit!

Holding up at least one hand in surrender now!]

I-I didn't mean...to get hurt... I swear!

[chrysalis_ex]

[ Yes, Lenalee. Standing there with her hands planted on her hips, looking at him.

While he is babbling his excuses, she cracks the door open in order to slip and walk over to his bed. All very calmly and at a steady pace.

Poor Lavi. ] How many days before you can move? [ She carefully asks. You just know she is planning something. ]

[outsidehistory]

[Crying so much on the inside, don't hurt him.]

Don't know... Ribs are still...a bit broken... [:| Not a birthday party...]

[chrysalis_ex]

[ Just a light punch to his face, nothing more~ ]

I wish they had a real hospital here... [ This is certainly no party. ] Anything else that's broken?

[outsidehistory]

[SCREAM.]

'm fine... Raven's a healer... Kiriko a medic... [His leg, arm, and ribs are all that's broken.] Not anything...that isn't bandaged...

[chrysalis_ex]

[ Nah; she'll wait until he's better before she does anything like that.

She nods, relieved there's at least people who knew what they were doing. ] Do you need anything right now?

[outsidehistory]

[Thank you, dear Lenalee. ♥]

Supposed to...sleep. [He's unable to sleep with the pain he's in though. So he just dozes.]

[chrysalis_ex]

[ ♥ ]

Ah... [ A pause. ] There aren't any sleeping pills anywhere?

[outsidehistory]

Not that...I'm aware of... [Or pain pills for that matter.]

[chrysalis_ex]

[ This could be a problem.

Or, it already was a problem.

Her face twists in an annoyed frown at the lack of supplies. ] Can I...do anything?

[outsidehistory]

[He's gotten good at ignoring at best he can, the pain, if he doesn't move then it doesn't hurt as badly. Just a dull ache.]

Bit too...broken to ask...for a hug...aren't I?

[chrysalis_ex]

[ Oh Lavi...why do you and everyone do this to her.

She offers a shaky smile before leaning over. ] A little. [ She can kiss the side of his forehead through, and run a hand once through his hair. ] I'll give you one when you can sit up. [ that was a promise. ]

[outsidehistory]

[Because we're soldiers and that's what we do?

He smiles a little, especially at the hair ruffle, he does reach for her hand with his good one though. Giving it a reassuring squeeze.] Sure you're...not going to...beat me upside...the head first...?

[chrysalis_ex]

[ Yes. Doesn't mean she really likes it, though.

She curls her hand around his, smiling a little and shaking her head. ] They already did that to you. [ A poke in his shoulder, though. Just a small poke. ]

[outsidehistory]

Only...a cut...

[The bandage just looks really bad because the cut is right over his eyelid and bled profusely as head wounds like to do. He lets out a grunt for her at the poke.] They say...I'll heal...

[chrysalis_ex]

Hm. [ A cut? ] Better than if you'd said only a scratch.

[ Heal he will, but it takes time. ] A few weeks? Or more?

[outsidehistory]

Maybe...if it were...only a...scratch....

[A slight shake of the head.] A week...or so... Raven needs...to recharge...

[chrysalis_ex]

Wounds are several giant scratches that go deep, aren't they.

[ Strokes his hair again; he needs a hairbrush for it in time. ] The bad thing about rest is that it gets boring after a while. [ Heavens know just how many times she has been in that place. ]

[outsidehistory]

Of course, deeper than a surface scratch anyway.

[His hair always needs a brush.] I know it will. That's why I was hoping you'd bring me a book from the library up on my floor at some point? ["A book" meaning as many as she can safely carry.]

[chrysalis_ex]

Did you need stitches this time?

[ One of these days she needs to sit down with a brush and attack his hair. ] I can do that. Which ones do you want? [ Five or six, depending on the size. ]

[outsidehistory]

Nah... Kiriko and...Yukio...would have...done that...if I had...

[Sob. After he gets better?] They're...all in...Russian... It doesn't...matter which...

[liltingly]

They're not as bad as they might've been.

[ She'll agree to that. Invite herself over, armed with a brush. ] All right. [ Lenalee's somewhat reluctant to leave though. But she eventually stands up, brushing a hand over his. ] I'll be back soon.
