[There's no one else in the lobby, but there is a lone syringe-shaped drone manning(?) the check-in desk. It emits a string of friendly(??) beeps.
... and then Add steps out of the other room, already pulling down some fresh holoscreens to work with. He sighs, barely even looking at the arrival.]
Livio, is it? It's about time. Come on, this way. [if he doesn't follow the drones will start gently prodding him towards the examination room it's time for your mandatory post-combat checkup sir]
[well... it isn't like he hasn't already seen one of these last night. that doesn't make it any more fun or anything, but... sure, okay, he follows. livio doesn't really know add, so he doesn't know what to expect, either.]
I should apologize, actually. I meant to check on you yesterday, but you seemed... occupied. It didn't feel appropriate to intervene at that time, and then I was busy with other patients.
[leading him into the exam room, the door clicking shut behind them... he can take a seat, if he wants? Dynamo does a quick little spin around Liv for the scan. Add hums as the holoscreen starts to fill up, frowning at the data. Lots of stuff he can't identify from a quick scan, but looking over the body from here...]
Hmm, no injuries detected? You should've told me you saw one of the other healers already.
You don't have anything to apologize for. I should... thank you, actually. For trying to help him.
[as a matter of fact, the scans might just show add that something quite similar to the serum coursing through wolfwood right before he died is present in livio's entire body. though it's dormant at present, not activated, and not nearly so concentrated.]
[It's tough to get accurate readings externally, but looking at the fluctuations in the energy signature and remote chemical analysis... if it wasn't such a recent find he probably wouldn't have noticed. Add raises his eyebrows, fully tuning Livio out to focus on the data.
He never got a chance to sample the serum from Wolfwood's body. Ah, if he could examine it more closely...
which is why he immediately pulls a syringe from his pocket and attempts to jab Livio (gently!!!) in the arm]
Hold still, please. [doctor add demands more BLOOD]
I said hold still. [scolding, like Livio moved by mistake and not because Add is out of his mind. He holds up the syringe.] There's nothing strange in it, see? I just want to check something. Now, stop moving around before you hurt yourself.
[he is going to try again, if Livio tries to escape that door is indeed locked, just give him your blood so they can move on to further testing—]
[okay, uh... livio is respectfully not immediately pulling the door off the hinges to escape, but he sure is continuing to step back from add and his needle.]
Check on what? Can you just -- talk to me before trying to stick me with shit? [alright, maybe add is getting a little bit of a rise out of him.]
I was here to thank you -- [although now he's wondering if what add gave wolfwood even fucking helped, or was just something he pulled out of his ass as a trial.
if he doesn't think about it, he can't get mad.
and anyway, there was the other thing. the more important thing, really.]
[his mood has soured considerably after being denied blood samples... but he eases off at the second point, reluctantly lowering his syringe. ugh, fine. another time...]
Resting. His condition is stable, but it'll take awhile longer before he's fit to move around again. [mainly because he knows Elsword will start pushing himself the moment he's out of bed. let's not reopen those wounds he put so much effort into fixing, thanks.]
Elsword is a lot tougher than he looks. A few bullets aren't enough to kill him, so don't worry about it. He'll be fine.
[it wasn't just "a few bullets," he wants to say, it was a punisher. but in the end, elsword did come out on top over wolfwood, as far as... well. being alive goes.]
That's... good to hear.
[livio knows how good of a person elsword is, so his physical health isn't all that worries him.]
He pauses, staring through the wall to where Elsword would be. Arms crossed, silently pinging the drone currently watching him—still resting, for now.]
... He blames himself for what happened. I disagree, but he's stubborn. He won't change his mind easily.

Uh -- what the hell? [he isn't too combative, more startled than anything. he is not actively dying, he does not need your weird drugs, thanks.
or, more concerning, the vial is empty? hello?? you are trying to STEAL his BLOOD?]

Do you have an aversion to needles? This won't take more than a second. I promise you, you won't feel a thing.
no subject
I have an aversion to being someone's medical experiment without consent.

No injuries, no check up—if you want something then come out with it already.
