The man's giant paw ruffled his fur, and Ioan wasn't sure how to feel about that. It wasn't that he didn't mind touching, but more so this man was in a lot of danger and needed to be tended with now. His brow furrows as he listens to the words, watches the exchange between the brute and his sister. Turning his gaze to the haphazardly laid bandages, he peels the first one back gingerly, peeking beneath to see the damage.

A gasp falls first before his tongue clicks behind his teeth. "B-bram, he needs st-stiches," Ioan's voice is hoarse as he sees the stretched open skin that would quickly need to be closed before infection slithered into it. Clenching his teeth, the pup nods his head firmly, eyes flicking between the two, patient and sister, before he leaves for the supplies. Hurrying, he grabs more wool, bandages, and a stitching kit.

Perching at the brute's shoulder, he looks to the dire with hesitation before looking up at his sister. "This will not be p-pleasant. I b-believe you drugged h-him enough th-that it shouldn't hurt t-too much, b-but hold him, will you?" Ioan feels the tremble in his paw as he takes the quill needle and shakily threads the horse hair thread through the small hole at one end. "I w-will work quickly if you h-hold still," he warns Quill, eyes flickering to the man once more before he begins his work.

Quickly peeling back the bandages, he washes the wounds with fresh, cold water, removing the poultice so that clean, fresh skin and meat glimmer beneath the dim, natural light. Using one paw to help push the skin together, he uses the other paw and his teeth to maneuver the quill and thread through the skin, tying and looping as fast as he can. It isn't a beautiful job, but it'll work. Once the last one is tied, he lets out a whoosh of a breath and checks on his patient.

"Th-the stitches are done. Are you r-ready for bandages?" Ioan fights to speak without a stutter, but he can't help the nerves that are so clearly written across his expression.
