I can mend wounds, but can I mend our hearts?

He lay on his side in his den, not really wanting to move much anymore as the wound on his back bled. It had torn open with the fighting at the raid, and as a result of the sudden tearing and searing pain, he had lost his focus and lost his fight. He was upset, yes, but the loss was his own doing. He had gone into it before he had fully healed, and he'd take accountability for it. He shouldn't have gone, but he wanted to continue to see how his children did in their raids and suffice to say...he was proud. Rivin had won her battles, and Diablo had won his fights, too.

They were home now, and he had gone straight for his den promptly after their return while the others went to celebrate. He started to close his eyes in an attempt to try and get some rest, but even if the world was silent or if he was dead tired, the pain radiating from his wound would prevent him from getting any sort of rest without treatment. He tried to power through it without complaint, but he had to admit...this shit hurt a lot . He took a shaky breath, ear turning toward the entrance to his lair as Rivin walked in, her question posed and hung between them for several heartbeats.

He was too proud to ask or admit that he needed help. But it was clear as day that he needed it, and Rivin was as hot-headed as he was...even if he told her no and to go tend to others who needed it, he knew there was likely to be an argument about it. So he shifted his body enough to allow access to his back as he looked at her. "Whatever makes you happy, kid." He murmured.
