(Day 2, LE, Storage) It's Time to Heal

[Karlotta Roth]

"If you tell us where you live, we maybe can drive you there or something after we are done here, or earlier, depending on the Commander." She replies, remembering hearing something about not being able to return home.

And she shared the feeling as well.

[Comstar]

"Well... I don't think they want me. I ran away to see the galaxy with the Slate Eaters. I was an idiot."

His voice cracked and he flushed but said, "Besides, what kind of return is that... Hi, I'm a weakling who can't farm or fight, now I'm just an extra mouth to feed, welcome me home?"

[Karlotta Roth]

"We can tell them you are here at least. Not pushing you to anything."

She took a thermometer on her hand.

"Anyway, I will have to touch you to analyze things. Can I?" She touched ever his bleeding organs before, but now he was conscious.

[Comstar]

"Uh... ok. If you have to."

He was quiet for a while. "Did you tie the gun holes shut?"

[Karlotta Roth]

"Yes, I did."

She opened her noteputer and made a file to type down the results of the exam. Would be useful to track the data if she was actually to monitor his recovery.

[Comstar]

"Thank you."

He glanced back at her. "I've never met a woman doctor. Or one with a gun."

[Karlotta Roth]

"Definitively more nurses out there than medics. May also just be because it's expensive to be a medic. You haven't seen a lot of medics on the first place."

She talked whilst she did the exams up, stopping sometimes to input the data. Just the temperature, for now.

[Comstar]

"How did you become one?"

[Karlotta Roth]

"The army needed field medics. I applied to be one and they teached me how to be one as long I worked for them for some years after that. Whilst they don't need me, I work as a mercenary."
A little colder than usual. Not surprisingly, he had few blood running on him.
"The thing is that a field medic works in the military, so if I wanted to, like, treat civilians or farmers, I would need to study on an university."
Time to listen how the lung was recovering.
"Now stay quiet and take a deep breath."

[Comstar]

"Huh."

The teen nodded, and then closed his eyes and took a breath... it wasn't wet or congested, which meant no fluid in the lungs... though his heart rate was elevated.
