What: Aftermath of Anoli Attack: Hospital
Where: Leo Ward - Caduceus Hospital Headquarters
Summary: It is the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies. The injured have been taken to Caduceus Hospital Headquarters, and it is time for reflection, visting, or old-fashioned escapes from the hospital rooms.
Warnings: Mild squick if people want to describe their wounds in explicit detail.

Caduceus Hospital Headquarters. It has a distinguished history within Hinoto-Ri, boasting of a staff of well-trained Healers, as well as possessing the most cutting edge medical technology possible. There was no limb they couldn't reattach, no organ they couldn't replace... - they even claimed to be able to bring someone back from the dead (with the small disclaimer that it could only occur under certain conditions and with an obscene amount of luck).

So needless to say, the hospital was more than well-equipped to deal with the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies.

---

Nearly every hospital bed had been filled by an injured patient that night. The A&E room had been in constant chaos, with civilians crying and shouting, searching for loved ones, or demanding to see doctors or healers to help so-and-so...

There had also been plenty of reporters milling about, shouting and crying over the status of the Mayor's Secretary, and whether the Red Lion had really died at the scene, or if he was still alive and well within the safety of the hospital's ICU.

By the time morning broke, there was a false sense of tranquillity within the hospital. The healers had been pushed to their limits with the sheer number of patients being wheeled in and out of surgery, but otherwise, the situation had finally gotten under control. Now, both civilians and visitors were merely waiting for word of the conditions of their injured friends and family...

[Welcome to the winding down of the event! You are now at the hospital, where you may be visiting the injured, or be one of the injured yourself! Those with RED injuries will be in the ICU, and those with YELLOW injures will be in normal wards, for obvious reasons. Those with GREEN injuries wouldn't have had to go to the hospital at all, so they are free to come and go as they wish!

You may all start your threads and mingle!]

Upon being set down on the bed, Desco crawls forward until she's near Otoha's face and flops down so she's lying on her stomach next to him, her head pillowed on her arms. Her back splits open again as her tentacles float over and cram themselves back into her body, leaving no sign that they're in there despite being over twice the size of Desco herself.

She pauses to think about your offer before replying, her voice subdued.

"Could...could Desco have some stainless steel?"

She glances at Otoha, the concentric circles that serve as pupils in her red eyes pulsing irregularly, almost wobbling, before continuing.

"It's Desco's comfort food."

Otoha didn't move or make any noise as Johnny worked, just nodding slightly as he finished. He turned to Desco, and put an arm over her back, pulling her a little closer, protectively.

He didn't have any steel for her, but he did have comfort.

As you drape your arm over her back, her body relaxes just a little as she curls into your side, being very mindful of both her claws and her horns. Her tail, which had retracted up into a small triangular stub, cautiously expands to just under half of its full length, the very tip twitching sporadically.

"I'll see what I can find~" He smiled at the two and left to look around. A nearby nurse's station proved useful and one slight-of-hand later he was bringing back a stainless steel tray complete with surgical tools of the same material. At last it was clean.

He set the tray down on Otoha's stomach for Desco to reach and climbed onto the bed as well, curling against the man's other side while he absent-mindedly worked on bending the blade of a scalpel down so it wouldn't cut anything. Perfect plan. "I hope that works for you~" And Otoha better get over the fact this is now a snuggle party on his bed.

It's...well, things aren't good, all things considered, but it's...nice. Desco's back splits open again, but instead of the entire bulk of her tentacles oozing out only one of her primary tentacles pokes out, stretching over to the tray and delicately biting a scalpel in half.

"Thank you, Uncle Johnny."

Otoha doesn't really have much room to complain. It's a strange feeling of safety, and he leans back against Johnny while he pulls Desco against him in a loose but protective gesture.

... It's a little unnerving for him to feel so safe, but he's not going to talk about it now. Even if the mask came off, he probably wouldn't be able to speak very well.

The 'Uncle Johnny' made the vampire incredibly pleased and he turned a gentle smile on the girl, placing the bent up scalpel on the tray as well. It wasn't like he ate metal. "You're welcome~"

He kept his arms around Otoha and moved his face closer to the man's. "Don't fidget." That was the only warning he gave before he ran his forked tongue along one of the burnt patches of skin on Otoha's face. It would take a couple of licks, but he could probably heal some of this, at least.

Otoha screwed up his face in annoyance, but did his best not to fidget. This looks gross, Johnny. Stop that.
