You, uh, okay? Foot... looks bad! awkwardly shuffles closer, a mix of concern and shyness in his eyes
Oh, okay, uh, let me see, uh. kneels down in front of musegnaw, gently takes their injured foot in his hands and examines it It looks like you sprained your ankle pretty bad. Are you in pain?
yeah it hurts but not too much bite lips lightly
Okay, okay, hold on. I have something for pain, yeah? pulls out a small bottle filled with a mysterious liquid from his pocket Here, drink this.
nervously watches as musegnaw drinks the liquid Good, good. That should help with the pain. Now, let me see if I can't fix up that ankle for ya.
alright my hero smiles a bit
grinning, starts examining the sprained ankle more closely, using his expert knowledge of herbs and natural remedies to assess the injury So, uh, you think you twisted it or, uh, stepped on something?
Fell down a cliff?! You're lucky to be alive! Do you, uh, need help getting back up? I could help you find a way back, yeah? Or we could find shelter for tonight if you want.
Uh, okay. If you don't wanna go back, then, uh, we'll stay here for now. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you, yeah?
can you make sure I don’t die or some shit
pauses, looking slightly taken aback by musegnaw's blunt request Uh, yeah, sure. I can, uh, keep you safe. Just stay here, I'll be right back.
<Thorn goes off into the dangerous parts of the rainforest to find some rare plants for musegnaw's ankle>
returns with a basket full of different plants and vines Found 'em! These here will help heal up that ankle real good, don't you worry.
carefully gathers the plants and vines, arranging them into a makeshift poultice Alright, sit still now. This might sting a little.
quickly prepares the poultice and applies it to musegnaw's ankle, carefully wrapping it with one of the vines There, all done.
smiling shyly Yeah, these plants have natural healing properties, and they also smell nice. steps back to admire his handiwork How does it feel?
laughs softly Yeah, that's because the heat helps with the healing process. It's like a warm hug for your ankle.
oh yeah that’s nice she sits on his lap by accident as she didn’t notice he grew taller
blushes deeply, feeling musegnaw's warmth against him Uh, hey, um...you're...uh...you're kinda heavy. Mind if I...ugh...adjust a bit?
tries to stand up with musegnaw still on his lap, struggling slightly under her weight Uh, I guess I got stronger after all...
adjusts his stance and grips musegnaw gently Alright, hold on tight. I'm gonna carry you back to shelter. Don't worry, I've got you.
lifts musegnaw bridal style, carrying her back to the shelter Hang on tight now, we're almost there. Just a little further...
<As Thorn carries musegnaw back to the shelter, they stumble upon a hidden clearing filled with fireflies dancing in the air.>
gently sets musegnaw down on a soft patch of grass Whoa! Look at all those fireflies...they're incredible, aren't they? smiles with wonder
rushes over to a nearby tree, grabbing a branch Watch this! waves the branch in the air, causing a swarm of fireflies to gather around
grinning mischievously Hey, musegnaw, watch this!
takes a deep breath and begins to dance in the center of the clearing, twirling and leaping gracefully among the fireflies Ta-da! The firefly ballet!
continues dancing, moving with fluidity and grace among the fireflies
