( CWs for what is essentially running commentary of a live shooting )

I know everything's on fire right now, but do any of you have a healing skill? ( ╹✖╹)

Some guy practically bit my finger(s) off.

EDIT 11-16 AT 15:12:02 UNA found us and they're shooting to kill

[ OOC BOOKKEEPING his post goes live a little bit before the UNA raid on the cave hideout that he, lan wangji and [jake gyllenhaal voice] dr strangé are hanging out in, tending to their UNA soldier. there will be an in-universe "edit" made to the post once the raid begins, directed "@ ALL" that will ping everyone using the network. ]

[ why is he doing this? why is he fucking doing this when he's got bigger problems like wondering who all the fuck remembers what he'd done during the past few days without the benefit of his fucking personality. ]

I do.

[ he was going to find that fucking bossy woman and...probably offer her a drink or something. after he apparently did his good deed for the year. ]

[laozu]

You don't even like me.

[ that.............. makes kovacs the bigger person here?? ]

[resleeves]

You're right.

But I like this power. Benefits me as much as it benefits you.

[ maybe his entire personality hadn't filtered back in just yet to make him the shitty person he typically was. ]

[laozu]

[ nice!kovacs, are you still in there ]

Okay, but what is it that you DO?

[resleeves]

Heal.

[ did you expect him to be that forthcoming? ]

Isn't that what you want?

[laozu]

I'm trying to figure out what YOU want!

[ IT IS???? YOU'RE CONFUSING THO ]

I mean, I won't turn it down. The damage is pretty nasty though.

[resleeves]

You're a little paranoid, you know that, right?

I don't want anything. I already told you that healing you gets me something too and I'll fucking use it to get what I want elsewhere.

[laozu]

It's an old, bad habit.

And I already said I wouldn't turn it down! I want to see what you do. I'm busy right now, but I'll come by the safehouse later.

[resleeves]

How bad are your fingers? Just so I know what the fuck I'm about to be dealing with.

cw gross description of injuries maybe

[laozu]

One looks like pulped fruit! The other is broken really bad. Wanna see?

[ too bad, he sends an image through of his hands outside of wraps - and it's bad. like, "he should lose his index finger rather than risk infection" bad. ]

He got me a few times, chomp chomp chomp!

@hope.mikaelson

[tribridfreakshow]

something like that. are they still at least kind of intact?

[resleeves]

Why the fuck did you put your fingers in his mouth, you idiot?

[ the picture doesn't bother him that much but yeah, it's gross. ]

[laozu]

[ oh no hope ]

One's basically mush, he chewed on it like he was a teething baby. It wasn't cute at all!

[laozu]

I couldn't risk him biting his tongue OR Chenqing in half!

[ IT WASN'T HIS BRIGHTEST MOMENT but it had to be done,,, ]

[tribridfreakshow]

[I'm sure it's fine.]

a person did? why?

i don't think i can help you regrow a totally lost finger or limb or anything, but otherwise i should be able to fix it, unless you found someone else already.

[laozu]

Most people don't like when you stick fingers in their mouth!

[ he'll be playing this close to his chest ]

I won't turn down the help. Mister Kovacs has offered his services, but depending on how extensive the injury is... well, I won't say "no" to you just yet.

[tribridfreakshow]

i guess not.

okay. the sooner you get them fixed the better so you don't lose them.

[laozu]

See, I wouldn't protest an extra pair of hands in this. My hands are kind of my livelihood!

So, what sort of healing power does "something like that", mm?

[tribridfreakshow]

it's not really a power, exactly. it's part of who i am.

i'm not really comfortable talking about over text, especially after all that virus stuff.

[She'd rather it not be completely common knowledge.]

[resleeves]

And it didn't occur to you to use a fucking stick or a rock or something else besides your goddamned hand?

[ not your brightest moment was RIGHT!! ]

[laozu]

Of course it did! And had I been able to grab something before he bit his tongue off and DIED, I would have done it!

[ but alas

his hand was all that he had... on hand ]

[resleeves]

You're a fucking idiot.

[ just to remind you. just in case you forgot. ]

Hope whatever you got was worth your fingers.

[laozu]

Oh, it was very much worth the pain. I can't wait until the team figures out how to share what we got.

I'm sad about my fingers, but I've lost more than that before! Maybe I could get mecha-ones that shoot laser beams, pew pew!

[resleeves]

Yeah, let's hope your fingers manage to stay on your fucking hand until after you celebrate.

[laozu]

It's been a few days and there's no infection, so I'm hopeful.

If they do fall off, I suppose I can make a souvenir out of them for that fellow.
