At the wince, Halo's ears pulled back for just a moment. "Sorry!" She winced too, loosening the strap to a degree. It was hard to know where was exactly too much, and she didn't have the most experience yet. Trial and error was how you learn, and she was grateful to be practicing on a patient that wasn't injured. As he teased, Halo's tail wagged. It was good to know that there was no harm in the action... no harm, no foul. "Emotional support healer, physical support healer, learning how to do it all out here," Halo joked back, relaxing as she worked. As she finished the knots that would keep the splint secure, Halo sat back for a moment. "Will you try to walk on it, please?" Her gaze was trained intently on the device. "I want to make sure it won't slide around," Halo's tail wagged softly. Pack life... maybe it really was for her. There was something so enjoyable about the mundanity of it all. "I know a few things about bees, my parent's band used smoke to keep them calm so we could harvest their honey when we found them... once we fix the boxes I'll find some to catch," her tail wagged brightly. The question about this Hika sent Mortis flailing, and Halo cocked her head softly to the side. He didn't seem offended, more like she'd asked him a question that made him... blush? Was that the right word? "He worries, which means he cares," her tone was soft, neutral with maybe a hint of speculative knowing. Halo's tail wagged, smile playing ever so lightly on her lips. Were these budding feelings, or something that had been kept a secret? Regardless, they were safe with Halo. A doctor has confidentiality clauses, after all. |
