Heart Soldier Senshi

[ The elevator opens up to a room spacious enough to house the whole unit comfortably, but with no furniture to speak of except a touchscreen podium near the far wall, displaying a row of four larger-than-life mahjong tiles on a red background. On the left side of the screen is a square that says TRADE. The walls and floor of the room are nearly checkered with metal panels, out of place against the rest of the marble flooring and unremarkable off-white walls.

The elevator doors close behind you. ]

[ OH. GOD.

Spidey is just staring in horror at his teammates right now. ]

H-hey, that's - that's a lot of blood --

[ It's a good thing he bought a new outfit because he's gonna try holding out his hoodie to stop bleeding for one or both teammates. ]

[ She shakes her head. Which. Actually turns out to be a bad idea? Turns out when you're losing a ton of blood and have lost an ear, you lose your balance really easily. She kind of. Falls over against the wall as the room spins. ]

Help Wire...

[made_up_names]

[ Spidey hesitates for a moment. Then - he tears the sleeve off his hoodie, offering the rest to her. Since the sleeve is all that will fit in Wire's mouth anyway. ]

Here. We'll sew it back up again afterwards.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Thank you. [ Numbly holding it to her head--or--trying. As soon as it touches her injury it's like her whole head is consumed by FIRE. ] Ungh! [ She gasps and drops the sleeve honestly. Sorry Spidey. ]

[made_up_names]

[ It's okay, he'll just stoop down here to fetch it and do what he can to hold it to her ear. ]

Sorry. Here, I'll move it away if it hurts too much.

[fiberoptic]

[WELL. WIRE'S NOT GOING TO BE CONTRIBUTING A LOT TO THIS DISCUSSION

since he's doubled over trying to not bleed to death]

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ fun times are when you're holding a hand up to the gaping wound at the side of your head gushing blood while also trying to help make sure your dad doesn't choke ON ALL THAT BLOOD. EVERYTHING IS AWFUL AND I HATE TECHNOLOGY ] Wire nod your head if you breathe.

[fiberoptic]

[He nodded, albeit shakily. He's keeping his head down so the blood doesn't drain into his stomach, but he's definitely alive.

Despite the enormous pain, he still manages to glance up at Hiryuu as though to ask if she was all right.]

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ She's never sleeping in their dorm with all its gizmos and gadgets EVER AGAIN, and also WITH A KNIFE UNDER HER PILLOW, but you know. for having a head wound. it could probably be worse? somehow? ] It'll be okay. [ Her head feels like it's on fire, but also throbbing, and she's kind of light-headed. How much blood can she lose before she passes out or dies? She's scared but she doesn't want to say anything because Wire has it so much worse and she doesn't want to make it any worse for him than it already is. So. Time to be brave. Just. ] Please don't die, Wire. [ Can people die from wounds like that? It's so much blood... ]

[fiberoptic]

[He shakes his head resolutely - this was not the time to be worrying about him. They'd have to be carrying the decision on their backs this round, because he couldn't.

She had to be fine without him. She would be fine.

Meeting her gaze, the spark of determination was still hot in his eyes, even without the words to reassure her. He brings a hand up to cradle her face - the side that wasn't bleeding - trying to tell her things would be okay.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Okay. Okay, Spidey has Wire covered. The only other fabric he has on him is that white glove from the first game, so he's going to fumble it out of his pocket and hand it over.]

Try and - try and stop the bleeding.

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ She's definitely wishing she was wearing her uniform with the cape today. The pain is so overwhelming she can barely feel the fabric as she takes the glove in her hand, and her hearing is--well. Understandably bad at this point? Between the shock setting in and the LOSS OF AN EAR and blood flooding the remains, she. Can't really hear him, so for a good solid five seconds she's just staring stupidly at the glove in her hand like she can't figure it out?

Eventually though she's raising the glove to the side of her face, but she's probably not applying great pressure to it. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Okay, this is - hang in there. This is gonna hurt.

[He's putting his hand over her hand and pressing harder.]

[made_up_names]

[ YEAH UM here he's shoving his hoodie at you. the nice hoodie he bought after the first game. ]

Here! I think - I mean, it's all I can think of -

[fiberoptic]

[It is considerably better than nothing. Your sacrifice will be remembered, fashionable hoodie.

It's undignified, but stuffing the fabric in his wildly bleeding mouth is helping it clot. Wire gives Spidey's hand a quick squeeze by way of saying thanks.]

[made_up_names]

[ Whatever works man. He did just tear off the sleeve so he can give the rest to Hiryuu. ]

Just hang on, okay? We'll take it from here.

[fiberoptic]

[He nods. Soldier-like determination is still burning in his eyes as he looks at Spidey, then over at the other two kids. It's all on you guys now.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Are you - oh my god, just - just keep your head down. We can - we can.

You're gonna be okay.

[His hands are shaking a little, and he's setting one one Wire's shoulder.]

[fiberoptic]

[Wire nods, the worst of the shock fading, even if he was still in pain. Just as a soldier would, he's staying remarkably calm - but the tiles are the last thing on his mind right now.

Hurricane's hand gets a squeeze, and and his eyes seem to tell him it's all in their hands now.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Squeezing back. Why is this the actual worst?]

Is it still bleeding? Should we like - can you apply pressure?

Re: Round 2 Discussion

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Oh my god, that is a lot of blood.]

[made_up_names]

[ And just like that you're the only uninjured one in the room, Hurricane. Spidey feels sick and he's doing what he can but -- ]

We're sticking with the plan, right? Don't hurt anyone?

[ A lot harder to say now that two teammates are bleeding horribly. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Y-yeah. Yeah.

Maybe people just had really shitty hands.

[made_up_names]

[ A nod, though he looks over at Wire with a pained expression. ]

Right. And we can't hold it against them. So - let's pick teams for a sore throat.
