[locked to Hanatarou]

[clever__fool]

The place Hanatarou is given the coordinates to is a small bedroom-like room, just off of the Sanctuary. It closely resembles a chemistry lab, like the kind one would find in a high school, except that most of the desks and things have been taken out and there's a bed in one corner. There's a door to the bathroom on the opposite wall, and the wall

Hanatarou arrives in short order, then blinks and glances around. This is the clinics...? "Hello," he says with a shallow bow. "How are you feeling?"

[clever__fool]

This is not the Clinics! This is actually Li's bedroom. But, if Li didn't tell Hana that before he's not about to right this second. Hana hasn't asked, you see.

"Hi." Li decides not to return the bow, even from a sitting position, because his bottom few ribs are still causing him pain. Hanatarou won't think him rude, right? "I'm okay. How about you?"

[handle_gently]

Hanatarou does not think Li rude!! Dodged a bullet there, didn't he.

"Very well," he says automatically as he pulls up a chair to the bedside and removes his first-aid bag. "Thank you. Can you tell me what kinds of injuries you have?" (It's not his intention to seem cold and businesslike, but he figures there will be more than enough time for small talk once healing is underway.)

"Well, there's my knee," he replies, starting with the only one that isn't covered by his clothes at the moment. "But it's cauterized. There are stab wounds on each shoulder, and of course the E scar on my chest. And a couple of broken ribs. I think that's everything major..."

Li of course knows that taking off his shirt is inevitable. But he doesn't want to do it before being asked. According to his logic, that would seem forward. Or something. Not like his chest is all that sexy right now, anyway.

Kneeeeeee
Heeeeeeealin'

"Well, anyway..." Hanatarou begins (why is Li acting so meek and submissive?? :x ). "... Are you doing anything interesting these days?" (Aside from being tortured and then convalescing from torture. This part is unspoken, but hopefully it gets through.)

[clever__fool]

This is more or less normal for him. The only difference is that the mun actually attached the label 'meek and submissive' to it. These are not the quirks you're looking for, Hanatarou.

"Well, I was looking for a place to live somewhere on my world. I had thought the Nexus was kind of dangerous before and, well... this kind of cinches it, you know?" The implied meaning of the 'was' and the 'before' is of course, 'before I got tortured'. Hopefully, that gets through, as well. "And of course I haven't spent the whole time since in bed-- oh! Dr. Ock is apparently making some sort of device that keeps you from getting kidnapped with a PINpoint. Or something. I don't really remember how that works. But I went to go give him a couple of old watches to use as casing."

And who doesn't have a few broken watches lying around? Especially if you do stupid things, like jump off of perfectly good bridges.

Hanatarou has never noticed Li doing things like quietly saying 'o-okay' and then looking at the floor. :I

"Kidnapped with a PINpoint? What do you mean?" Hanatarou asks, glancing back over at Li (he's currently down in the knee-area, you see).

[clever__fool]

Li says 'o-okay' all the time, and he looks at the floor on occasion. Nothing wrong with combining those two behaviors!

Also, he probably doesn't completely understand the question. "Well, it's a pretty common phenomenon, which is why it's good that someone is finally doing something about it.

"But I didn't mean to imply that you personally have that problem. U-unless you do...?"
