[ He's sat in the hospital bed looking borderline delirious because he really should not be awake but looks slowly over to Elysia from where he's just watching the other three get treated like hawks. He's not ignoring her or anything but he visibly has heavy bandaging around his neck, so. ]
[ He still has a voice for now but it sounds terrible. But anyway, he will be, even though he looks absolutely fucking exhausted with a very uncharacteristic depressive aura around him. ]
[ injuries include, he has some depressive aura going on even if that's just a cyoa effect because he's one of the raven boys. although elysia is still trying to figure that out. ]
I have heard you all say similar things... how it's your fault you're all hurt. I would never want you to abandon them, bu why should they have let you go?

she watches him for a moment before she sets a chair at the end of bed in the angle of wherever the other three are. ]
Hmm.... maybe it's a good thing you're not super chatty. Did they give you painkillers yet?
no subject
He nods stiffly. Hard when he's got a bunch of bandages there. ]
Are the other three looking alright?
[ His voice is of course, shot to shit, and he'll probably not have it tomorrow with how much he's forced himself to talk in general today but hey. ]
no subject
[ she doesn't like to lie. ]
I want to talk to you, but I don't want to make you talk too much.
[ the dilemma. ]
no subject
[ Well he looks at her... certainly nothing stopping her from talking to him at the least. ]
no subject
[ ... ]
Do you think you'll all be okay eventually?
[ from the trauma. ]
no subject
[ He still has a voice for now but it sounds terrible. But anyway, he will be, even though he looks absolutely fucking exhausted with a very uncharacteristic depressive aura around him. ]
I was supposed to keep them out of harm.
no subject
[ she doesn't seem so sure about that. she is noticing that melancholic air about him, but she's still trying to figure things out.
I know you did as best as you could. Everyone came back alive, and I'm thankful for that.
no subject
[ Well. He actually does mean that believe it or not. Even if he feels like shit he doesn't really know what to do other than perservere. ]
no subject
perseverance doesn't always mean you're fine or that you're okay, just that you're here. ]
I think I want to wait and see with you. Is that okay? I'm just a little worried.
no subject
I will be here as long as they want to be.
[ Looking at the other three present until we all fuck off for curfew or don't I guess. Elysia is welcome to stay until then. ]
no subject
[ she's wondering if it's a trauma bond or a trauma effect. ]
no subject
I trust in them to be alright, but I don't want to abandon them now.
no subject

no subject
I did not die when I should have. It released a demon, that made them hurt each other.
[ And him, but he is not being purposefully exclusionary or anything it's just that words are hard. ]
no subject
Should you have died? That doesn't sound right.
no subject
Was supposed to. I lived, because of a king named Glendower.
But it was for nothing. He wasn't in his tomb.
And I broke his sword.
[ DEPRESSION INTENSIFIES ]
no subject
It sounds like you forced into some kind of ritual. What does this king do, or what was he supposed to do?
no subject
Made me live, when I was supposed to die. Spent my whole life looking for his tomb. Wanted answers.
no subject
It sounds like you were meant to fail.
[ if he wasn't in his tomb. ]
You were led to a false objective, and all of you suffered for something that was never meant to be fair.
