[ he closes his eyes when the first of Douman's heads drops to the floor in a jingling heap, and then he just... takes a long moment. to breathe. to exist. to radiate pain from the new sensation that is a collection of broken bones; he sits for a long, quiet while as the last sounds of execution crescendo and then fade, and then all that's left is just... quiet. the sounds of pain and exhaustion and the shaky realization that one is yet alive.
he feels the familiar tinge of healing magic working its way into his tired flesh, knitting his arm back together enough that he can give a heavy sigh and heft himself to his feet (18). the limb still isn't back to rights, and he cradles it against his side as he makes his way over to Miss Lapis and Sir Dad, glancing at Douman's body--and his eyes flicker as he spots something familiar.
he reaches down to pick up Rose's phone, running his thumb over the case and tucking it into wherever Veldora holds stuff on his outfit because that's pants and a cape and it's going somewhere.
and then he turns his attention to the Father and Daughter before him, coming to kneel next to Sir Dad. ]
I don't know if I can carry her, Sir Dad, but if we want to move her closer to the others I think we can muster enough between us to get out of this nightmare.
[ and with his good hand he gives Husk's shoulder a little squeeze, smile not quite reaching his eyes because he's still tired in his bones. ]
It was an honor to fight by your side, and the Lady--truly, she's marvelous. You must be terribly proud of her.
