[Not that he wants to let on, but Stephen's only making this post this late because he hasn't been able to dredge up the coherency to make this post until now. There's a slow and uneven tone to his voice and he pauses once in a while to set his teeth and shift his arm. Hard to say how bad it is, but he'd rather not take a doctor away from people who need them more.]

I know there are a lot of injuries being taken care of right now, and a lot of mess to clean up, after that last attack... But if anyone with a few minutes to spare and a steady arm could find the time, I could use some help.

Even I can't set bones one-handed, and I'd like to take care of them before they decide to start healing themselves wrong.

Do...do you know how to do this? If you told me, I could try.

[He doesn't sound very sure of this. But you sound in pain and that distresses him.]

[gavehislife]

I can talk you through it, if I need to. I just need an extra pair of hands.

[knightoflight]

Will my hands suffice? I will be gentle.

[Despite being about three times your size.]

If not, I can perhaps take you to a medic?

[gavehislife]

I really don't want to take up any more of the medical team's time. They have their work cut out for them several times over.

It requires something of a careful touch. Do you think you can set them without breaking my arm further?

[knightoflight]

They do.

[He frowns.] This is the second attack. We need to be better prepared.

[But that's not the point here.]

I wouldn't even suggest it if these [he pulls one of his plasma blades out] didn't require a great deal of control. And I will stop the instant you tell me too.

[gavehislife]

It's good enough for me.

You know where the hospital is, I take it. I've been holed up in the burnt out building to the left. Watch your head. Most of it is pretty hazardous.

[knightoflight]

[Oh, he knows where the hospital is. Unfortunately.]

Is that where you got injured? In the attack?

[That would make Wing feel even worse.]

I'll be there soon. Let me know when you see me.

[gavehislife]

I jumped out of the building. Guess I drew some unwanted attention from our friendly visitors when I shot their mates between the eyes.

Assuming they actually have eyes.

[knightoflight]

They must. We did have the one who escaped from the dome. He looked like your kind.

Only very ill.

[He lands, near the hospital, switching to his robot mode, and begins picking his way over the rubble-strewn streets.]

[gavehislife]

[Stephen's foolishly moved himself back to the outside of the building, leaning heavily on the wall for support. He hears Wing before he sees him.]

Over here.

[knightoflight]

[Wing slows as he hears the voice, optics revolving until he spots the human.]

[He drops to one knee before him, worried at the other's injuries.]

How can I help?
