( there was a sigh, a gentle movement of hand over rough and bloodied skin. it had taken convincing to get jack to come back to her, to not deal with it on his own as he no doubt had been doing since the fall.
old habits were hard to break and this was hers. ever the doctor, the nurturing soul who couldn't bear to see someone in pain, particularly not a friend.
shots had been fired on the mission, something not out of the ordinary in their history but this was supposed to be diplomatic. angela had tried to gently suggest that he didn't go, that perhaps he was out of practice for this sort of thing even if she didn't expect him to especially provoke anything. he hadn't, the shots had first come from an outside party and jack had saved lives, risking his for theirs.
grothia had brought him back, had made sure to pull him out and now it was down to angela to soothe the rest. the wounds wouldn't take long to heal, particularly not now that her staff had been returned, especially with the superficial nature of them but angela suspected that his pride would take more soothing )
Talk to me.
( she's starting to clean the blood from his arm, touch as gentle as her words )
