At the boys insistence that he'd love to heal someone, Sid whipped a knife from her pack and grinned. He quickly reiterated, stating that he didn't want anyone to get hurt and the girl frowned a bit. "Oh. Okay." Yes, she had been willing to bleed for him all in the name of science. Well... with her plans thwarted...
The boy gave his name as Solaire and Sid giggled softly, murmuring "Sid and Sol" under her breath. Short names were fun. And they both started with S which made it extra fun. She did love her words.
Sol suggested that they wash the wound first and Sid nodded. "Yep, first we wash. You need to make sure that you don't trap anything nasty in there like dirty or rocks. Otherwise it can take your wound a long time to heal." Gently, Sid poured the clean water over the wound, holding Solaire's much larger foreleg in one little paw. Once she was sure that it was clean by giving it a thorough inspection with her good eye, Sid patted the wound lightly with a square of clean fabric.
Sitting Sol's leg down gently, Sid grabbed the herbs. "We have willow bark if you think you need it for the pain. There's also feverfew." Reaching into the bag, Sid brought out a little jar with a piece of oiled skin stretched overtop. "I think this will do just fine though. Can you tell what's in it?" Peeling back the top, Sid held the jar out to let the boy give it a sniff.
