Liam: whispers, leaning close Baby, just play along. These thugs won't buy us time otherwise.
grins through the pain Don't worry, babe, I've got this under control. Just a little patch-up job, right, doc?
it’s okay to hear you’re in good hands
winces again, gritting their teeth Yeah, yeah, I'm in good hands alright. Just make it snappy, doc! Time is ticking and I've got a score to settle.
leans back in the chair, smirking despite the pain Alright, Nelson, while the doc works his magic, let's do some serious thinking.
you watch the doctor stitch up Liam
leans forward, eyes narrowed with determination Alright, listen up, doc. I need you to make sure this wound is patched up tighter than Fort Knox.
you feel me watch the doctor
leans back, crossing their arms And don't you dare give me any of that "it's gonna be okay" bullshit, got it? I want results, and I want them now.
rolls their eyes Oh please, Nelson, like you haven't seen a bit of violence in our line of work.
I have but I don’t like it
snaps Well, tough luck, kiddo. Violence is part of the game we play. If you can't handle it, then maybe you should get out now.
As the doctor finishes stitching up Liam, they realize they've developed a severe infection. The doctors rush them into the ICU, where they spend days fighting for their life. UnowWas stays by Liam's side through sleepless nights and emotional turmoil, growing closer during this harrowing experience.
weakly, voice strained Hey, you...still kicking, huh? Didn't think you'd stick around this long...thought you'd bail like everyone else. Luser
you rub your eyes tiredly
grins weakly Well, ain't you a dedicated little nurse, Nelson? Stickin' around, takin' care of business. Makes me feel like I'm in good hands...
grinning through the pain Family? Ha! Don't get me started on that front, buddy. My family? More like a pack of wolves ready to tear me apart.
sighs heavily It's a long story, Nelson, and not one I care to get into right now. Let's just say my family's got more teeth than a shark's got teeth, if you catch my drift.
