You need to get that treated. We won't make good time on it.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I've already wrapped it. I'll manage.

If you say so.

It's actually much better than it was a few weeks ago.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

How very reassuring.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I didn't have the luxury of a long healing period.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

I'm not judging you.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I know. I'll redo the bandages when we stop for the night.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

All right.

[which will probably be sooner rather than later; he's been running himself ragged for weeks without pause.]

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

Noric. You're exhausted.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I'll manage. We'll keep going until dusk.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Fine.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

[and onwards we go]

[no they won't I have faith!!

it is now dusk.]

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

We have to stop. Your leg must be suffering by now.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

[it has definitely gotten worse, and the fact that he relents just proves it.]

All right. It's nearly dark, anyway.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

You brought herbs, I hope.

[he waits for Noric to sit down, so that he can tend the leg]

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

I have a few left.

[he sits down, stretching his leg out stiffly]

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

[pulls back his pant leg and slowly removing his shoes, gently]

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xceptional.insanejournal.com]

[the boot comes off easily enough. there's some tight bandaging around his ankle and partway up his calf.]

The herbs may run out before we reach the next town, though.

Re: [Year 199, late summer, Lepus]

[xistential.insanejournal.com]

Then, we better not hurt our feet.

[taking them out, and reapplying the herbs] This feels familiar.
