[Soo-won expects Rufus to take one of these items in his fleshy hand, which is thankfully still wrapped in the remains of a school vest. The water goes in that hand, because he will swallow the painkillers clean if he must.
Once the bowl arrives, he sets the water aside and washes his hands. The pain is unbelievable, but nothing new. He watches the blood wash away from flesh and synthetic material with an impassive expression.]
soo-won will also watch this happen, but also? he's worried? he's rather obviously worried, and doesn't bother to hide it. in truth, he's rather sure this is very far beyond anything a book can teach him, but he assumes that cleaning the injury is the first thing to be done.]
.... you won't take any of the healing items that we've received?
[well this is just blood water now. soo-won is going to move to carefully help lift rufus' hands from the bowl. what the hell is the damage jae is there any way to tell what happened to him!! WHY IS RUFUS PEELED]
Your chest injury could've been.
[so if he just. wants to take care of both.... we don't know where the 2nd curfew group is so???]
[His skin ends without noticeable tears along his wrists, like the ends of a burned piece of parchment. It's clear that the deed wasn't done by fire, however. While his right hand makes for a gnarly display, his left hand is at least clean in that it's incapable of bleeding with its lack of tissue.]
[while that is arguably correct, PEELED HAND is still a rather gnarly injury so soo-won wouldn't blame him either, damn.
jae you get to decide the treatment that rufus gets but as long as the supplies are in the first aid station that'll work. i keep googling different hand injury treatments but 'raw hand' is apparently not what the internet is prepared for]

[It would be a waste. But his attention seems to drift the longer he stares at his hands. He doesn't move.]

[though at least he sounds more resigned than anything. fine!! treating him on rufus' terms.
THIS IS SO HORRIBLE THOUGH? RUFUS, YOUR HANDS.]
Do both of them hurt? We'll have to clean the flesh one first.
[and? wrap it? this seems like the type of injury you want to keep clean but also how the fuck will it heal]
no subject
Please go ahead, then.
[Hands are hands. He'll let Soo-won handle these. No matter what Soo-won does, he won't complain about the pain or discomfort.]

These are the only notable injuries.

They tortured you, Rufus.

[He looks over to the foot of the bed, where he tossed the yearbook earlier.]
There was another item. When consumed, it would compel that person to speak truthfully.

Cryptic... but alright.
What do you think it might've meant? I can't think of anything immediately....
