[ when marianne had agreed to come over and heal his injuries, she was expecting something along the lines of like, a nasty cut, or a broken arm, maybe. something that required immediate attention but nothing life-threateningly serious. so the moment itaru takes his shirt off and reveals the extent of his wounds, she's left speechless for a moment, expression cycling through something like surprise to mild horror to overall concern.
sure, she's seen worse and has dealt with worse; encounters with crest beasts were always tough to deal with during the fight and afterwards, when they all dragged their broken bodies back home. and she knows these injuries weren't caused by a crest beast, and she knows they're not home, but, ]
That's— [ indeed A Lot. she takes a deep breath. ] ... Okay.
[ yes, all right, she can work with this. maybe, possibly. to her credit, she doesn't ask him how he got all those injuries and still managed to be up and about? and she isn't entirely sure if she wants to know either, so in the meantime, she has him sit where she can reach his injuries without him moving too much, her touch gentle and careful as she checks over those open punctures. it's a good thing he has his iris healing, though. at the very least, that may have done most of the work from the start. ]
I'm going to close the open wounds up here first before I start on your side. This might take a little while... but if it gets to be too much, please let me know and we can take a break, okay?
[ and who knows, maybe she'll need it, too. this is the first time she's tried using her magic here, and she isn't sure if this place has affected it at all. she's determined to do what she can despite that, so she lifts her hands and murmurs the incantation for her faith magic, fingers glowing with a soft, golden light as they hover over the large bite mark on his shoulder. immediately, his skin will start to stitch itself back together, the wound scabbing over before smoothing out to newer, pink skin. ]
