Herodotus Antiques will be closed for the rest of the week. Possibly into the weekend.

If anything changes, I will let you know.

[That was the easy part. She doesn't want to draw too much attention to what happened to her at the Swear-In, but Bela couldn't ignore what was gnawing at her.]

I also need to speak with someone who has healing powers. If you're not busy.

Thanks.

[If she could heal the physical wounds, it would be something. The emotional and psychological trauma will take a lot more healing and Bela doesn't feel up to doing that just yet. Or even know where to begin.]

That's all for now.

I left the swear-in early, but I heard about what happened.

If there is anything that I can do for you, simply say so.

Could you maybe look in on the store? I don't want it getting vandalised.

You're lucky that you left early.

[servesthehuman]

I'll drop in before and after work to check and see that everything is alright.

[cleptes]

Thanks, Owen. That'll help.

I think I've earned a break anyway.

[textualhealing]

How you feeling? :(

[cleptes]

[Ahahaha where does she begin with that question? Best keep it simple and not delve into her current emotional and psychological state.]

Like shit. I could sleep for a month.

[textualhealing]

Do it. Sleep is awesome.

[cleptes]

I can't.

[She'll have nightmares.]

Not yet. I need to do a few things first.

[angelfire]

You should speak to Raziel, Bela. That's what he's for.

[cleptes]

That won't happen. I can't trust that he'll heal me.

[Consider whom he is associated with.]

[angelfire]

Rather than what? Not so fond of angels, are you? But then, they didn't sweep to your rescue before.

A demon came to my aid instead.

Do be careful with what you say over an open network, Lucifer. This is between us.

Ms. Talbot, I'm Winry. I bought some books from you last month? I'm a healer. If you need it, I'd be happy to help.

[cleptes]

Yes, I remember you. Hello.

Is there a limitation to what your healing abilities can do? It's important that I know.

[hands4healing]

If you're asking if I can heal a broken leg, I probably can.

If you need a lot of broken legs healed, it'll take more time.

[cleptes]

I didn't break anything, so need to worry about that.

I'm concerned about scars.

[hostage]

Want me to swing by?

[cleptes]

Only if you have the time. I'm sure you've had your hands full.

[hostage]

I can make time

You didn't claw out anyone's eyes or set yourself on fire. If what you need is a little healing, then you'll be fine. Better off than many of the others that were there, at least.

Putting things into perspective for me won't change a bloody thing. I still went through a lot of shit.

[The hallucinations were the thing that really got her. Mixing in both her past and possible future in the most terrifying of ways.]

Save it.

[sunasuna]

And I'll remind you that it was all fake. Convincing, but fake.

I'm not going to coddle you, Bela. Don't let what you saw get the best of you. You're better than that.

And you're the only person here I can say that to without laughing about it afterward.[See, this is why he's keeping it private. Being friendly - well, "friendly" - isn't something he cares to have other people see.]

what sort of injuries do you have bela
im not a healer exactly but i have some medical knowledge if that would help

[cleptes]

Oh. Hello Kanaya.

I have some bruising and a few cuts on my face. They're not deep though. It's the deep scratches on my arms I'm concerned about.

Some people with healing powers have already offered help and they'll do what they can. That doesn't mean I won't take any advice from you.

[ Deep scratches on her arms, it sounds similar to the wounds Kanaya had, from her own nails. Though those had already begun to close by the time the effects started to subside, self-repair is convenient that way. ]

well i suppose interim care would be important until your offers have been fulfilled
infection can be a worry so keeping the area clean would be the most important step
though controlling any bleeding that may have lasted to this point should also be a priority
and an analgesic to keep the pain bearable
