[His voice is tired and shaky, but with an obviously forced cheerfulness.]

I, um... i-if I did anything to hurt anyone during this experiment, I-I'm really sorry. Everyone else is okay, r-right? Some of the things people got turned into were pretty scary.. I'm g-glad this is all over with.

I-I hope we don't have another experiment like that any time soon. I think I liked the ones that didn't involve being changed into anything b-better.

Would it, um... w-would it be okay if I came home now?

[OOC: Yeah, the kid is stammering like crazy because he's sitting out in the snow without a coat. Ratatosk, you are a genius.]

It does seem like you took quite a beating, dear... hmm. Let me see...

[She's going to do what she can with the spirit magic to the best of her ability, of course. She hasn't had many opportunities to practice, but more than enough to have absorbed knowledge about what to do.]

[Being treated like a punching bag is no fun, especially if you can't even remember what happened. He can't even tell her where he got hit simply because he doesn't know... but if the amount of pain in his abdomen and ribcage is any indication, most of the blows were concentrated there. His pounding headache is also making it difficult for him to see straight.]

M-my stomach really hurts...

[She'll focus the healing there, and at the other bruises.]

You need to be in bed, dear...

[Bed. Yes. Bed is good, much better than sitting out here in the snow.]

Mmm...

Do you think you'll be able to stand...?

[He nods.]

I-I think so...

[She rises herself, then reaches her hands to him.]

Let us test that theory.

[Taking her hands (and being careful not to pull too hard for fear of overbalancing her), he manages to climb to his feet and stand, wobbling slightly.]

Hmm... we'll have to take breaks for certain, but we're not too far from the village. Here, take this cloak.

[He gives her a shaky smile as he takes the offered garment and wraps it around himself for warmth. He's still shivering, but it's better than nothing right now.]

T-thank you.

You're welcome, Emil. Now, just lean on me, mmm? We'll make it there.

O-okay.

[Leaning very carefully here, because although he might be a beanpole, he's still a lot taller than she is and he doesn't want to put too much weight on her.]

All right. Now take it easy...

[Musette's doing her best to help keep him balanced, but this will likely be a slow walk. She'll try healing him some more during their their breaks, as well.]

[Slow is more than all right with him given his injuries. The thought of his own bed is what is spurring him on right now-- that and a hot bath.]

[She'll hum a soft tune as they go instead of speaking the entire time; it's meant to be comforting.]

... I hope Richter isn't angry w-with me.

He isn't, dear. I believe he's simply worried.

I didn't hurt anyone... did I?

I haven't heard anything, dear... although I am concerned for your condition, mmm?

I-I'll be fine once I get some rest.

Among other things.

[Like a hot bath... he's still shivering despite the cloak.]

[A hot bath, eating delicious soup, tea, talking to friends...]

Do you need to rest?

[Cue a vigorous headshake.]

N-no, I'm all right.

[Glances around for a nearby tree, guiding him over] Hmm... this might do. Come, rest here, dear.
