[ arguing with rouge tends to lead to some unsavory realizations, some like: he trusts her, that he would always be by her side if he had the option, and cases like that which makes him feel vulnerable. that doesn't mean he won't fight back, willing to reject the idea of it and let his body heal on its own. there's been many worse times than this where his own body part had been severed away, and it only took some time until a new limb grew back in its place.

he's difficult, but it's within reason, and his thoughts win out when he gets into his own head. rouge's voice helps from time to time, sometimes he's able to be mindful of his surroundings when she is speaking, but this time... could she understand that he's not past the past? as much as he should be, as many times as he's killed or thrown away certain aspects of himself to better his future... it's one thing he can't let go, he always says he can't let he go.

so why did he let her disappear. why does he always seem to fail her? there's a question that comes to the forefront of his mind, but it's easily replaced with something else. ]

Does it hurt?

[ obviously he's talking about her wing, but maybe he has something in mind for her. ]

[ she raises a brow, initially thinking he's asking her if getting bandaged will hurt. Not any worse than it already is, she thinks - but, no, he's asking about her wing. Ah, a redirect. ]

Only my pride, [ she replies flippantly. Half a lie: burns are pretty painful, but her wings aren't too sensitive, at least when it comes to injuries on the membrane. Better to be hit there than anywhere else... save for the fact that it's limited her mobility. While speaking, she pries her breastplate forward just enough to swiftly retrieve a small roll of bandages from somewhere within. Trust a spy to have plenty of secret resources on her person (and Rouge to have plenty of room around her chest.) ] I suppose I've got you to thank for that.

[ it would have been worse if she'd taken the full brunt of that fall - then she might have actually broken something. She stops short of actually thanking him, if only because she's still feeling slighted. Instead, she crouches down next to him with the bandages in hand, gesturing for him to let her see the injury. ]

[ what is he to say to that? throughout all of this, she still remains, no matter what it has always been her who stays. why does she do it? he'll never be able to understand the answer, but it's these moments that are always short-lived when he takes part in them. how long until this becomes another mistake, when she's on her side, bleeding out like the others because of the damage to her wing because of his actions. ]

Rouge.

[ her name is said like he needs her to do something. the hedgehog looks to her now, as close as she is, she should be aware that he doesn't need it. he'll regenerate with time, or maybe she doesn't like that she can see this wound so clearly.

it's because of that regeneration that the hedgehog removes one hand from the wound, the substance oozing out of him hasn't stopped, but it is held out to her. ]

[femmebatale]

[ it looks pretty grisly, regeneration be damned. That definitely would have killed him if he were a normal hedgehog. Fortunately, she's made of tough stuff, and the sight doesn't even make her flinch. She won't pretend she understands anything about how that regeneration works, but she has to figure that stopping the bleeding can't be anything but helpful.

If it weren't for him saying her name, she'd get right to it. As it is, she stops mid-motion, glancing up at him expectantly. ]

What?

[ he already seems to have given up on making her back off - but all she can figure is that he has a new complaint. ]

[limiterrings]

Drink it.

[ shadow was created to be a cure, someone who indulges in immortality, and it isn't out of the way for his blood to be used to heal. as much as he doubts extensive wounds are here or there, surface level ones such as what rouge has should be enough for him to fix.

besides, he doesn't want to hear her complain about how messed up her wing is because of his ... mistake. ]

For as much as you run your mouth; I am aware you can put those fangs of yours to use.

[ haha gott'er. ]
