but is the poncho okay???

[yo_me_rezo]

With a little patching up, it will live to fight another day.
Much like myself, thanks for asking.

[counterstep]

obviously you're fine or you wouldn't have been able to send that
glad it's only a little patching needed though

need any help?

[yo_me_rezo]

Just some scrapes and bruises - I've definitely had worse.

Why? Wanna work magic with a needle while I take a hot bath?

[counterstep]

my hands are yours
just say the word

[yo_me_rezo]

If it's not taking you away from anything important, now would work.

[counterstep]

no problem
just wrapped things up here

give me 12

[yo_me_rezo]

You know where I'll be.

[counterstep]

( he's there in eleven, knocking and unsure of if she's already in the bath or not. after a moment, bucky decides it's best if he uses the spare key he has. )

I'm coming in.

( some of the lights are on, but not in a normal way he'd expect. his brow furrows as he calls further in. )

Cass?

[yo_me_rezo]

[Despite asserting that she's had worse injuries - which is true - she is perhaps a bit more injured than she's let on via text. No broken bones as far as she can tell, no concussion, just sore. All over.

The bath will help. She's actually in the middle of preparing it when she hears her name.

Favoring her left leg, Cassia limps from the bathroom into the hall, shirt undone and left hanging from her shoulders, not even bothering with an attempt to cover anything up.

They're both adults.]

Hey.

[counterstep]

( instinctively, she gets a quick once over, and he frowns, noticing the extent of the damage. theres more bruising than he expected to see. )

Jesus. ( he runs a hand through his hair. biting back the urge to ask why she didn't say more earlier. ) Okay.

( bucky takes a breath, pulling his med-pack around his side. )

Where's the worst of it?

[yo_me_rezo]

[Cassia expects nothing less at this point, and even though she hadn't been totally honest from the get-go, doesn't find any reason to try to downplay anything now.

Her palm is a little scraped up, but before Bucky reaches for the med-pack he's so thoughtfully brought with him, she settles her hand atop his in what she hopes is a reassuring gesture.

It sure as hell won't be if she reiterates that she's had worse. It'll probably just make him worry all the more, and right now, she doesn't want that.]

My back, probably. It was kind of a long fall.
