[ she does recover just as quickly, just a bit of a wince as he works and back to a bright grin. gotta keep the bravado up ]
I'll try to restrain myself... but I can't promise anything if those creeps get you cornered!
[ since clearly, he needs the protection from his new three foot tall bodyguard. she tries not to fidget in place while he's getting the gauze, since the wound hasn't even closed yet. a bit of blood trickles down her arm. now she sounds quieter. contrite, even. ]
.... Thank you. Sorry about, um.... all the blood....
[ yes, it's that time where maya apologizes for being hurt ]
[It's gauze time, though he's quick and efficient about it. There's no getting around the discomfort of it for Maya - at least he's taping it up before she has much time to think about it.]
You can kick 'em higher than that. Might work out better for you.
[If she can't fight fair, fight dirty. He snorts a bit, straightening up and tossing the gauze back into the kit.]
[ she makes a valiant effort to keep grinning through it and pretend she isn't in pain, but it is very obvious that she is. it takes enough effort that she stops talking for a minute, (incredible) though she nods in response to the kicking advice. yeah!! kicking!! ]
[ once it's over and he's putting the gauze away she lets out a long breath through her nose. ]
Is it always like this here?
[ crazy angry mobs and such. it may become apparent she is fresh blood here. pun intended ]

[He shakes his head, snapping the kit shut. He's too new himself to be confirming anyone's worst fears. It does not bode well, however.]
But in my experience they'll wear themselves out eventually. [Speaking of--] Now go sit down somewhere before you pass out.
