That's right! You can always come to me in times like this.
[ he'll hear a sigh from behind him; Navia's still happy that they've come this far in their friendship. partners, friends, allies. they've come so far from their first meeting, trying to solve a murder.
she hums quietly while she cleans his wing, careful to wipe around the closed eyes. she'll have to ask him to see what they look like with the eyes open - a sight to behold, surely. ]
Do you think you'll get any more? Wings, I mean. This had to have been painful the first time around, not to mention the second or third.
[He smiles warmly. He's made so many wonderful friends during his journey and Navia is one of those treasured companions. He can't help being thankful for that.
He keeps his wings still as they're cleaned and thinks how to answer the question.]
I'm... not too sure, but I think it may be all of them for now.
[As for it being painful... Yes, it was, but he's not going to admit that.]
[ he's much like her in that regard - she won't say she's hurt in front of anyone. they'll push through the pain so no one is worried. ]
More than six? That must be a sight. I'd love to see them one day, eventually.
[ With the first wing done, she moves onto the other. her touch is gentle, just like with the wing before it, carefully wiping the blood and gore away from it.]
You know where to come should you get more. I don't want you dealing with this by yourself.
More and more people tell me that... Maybe I should invite you all for a show sometime.
[He's mostly joking about it, trying to stay in a better mood despite the pain. Navia is gentle with him, though, so it's all fine. It's calming when she's looking after him this way.]
