And really, that's why the blades are still in there, so there is LESS bleeding.

Donnie will go grab the key and move over to hand it over to Korone. He already got a thing so this may be important to her.

"So you're self defense," he said and paused, looking at the gold hoard. "Maybe selfishness, but that's hardly bad. I supposed we're lucky he didn't want to hoard us," Donnie said. "We could heal the injuries. I can drop the bindings when we're out of the room."

[ She takes the key when Donnie offers it to her. ]

Dracaque to protect Macchan's innermost heart, huh? Makes sense. [ Her voice softens, ] You're here for a reason. It's not a bad thing to want to protect yourself, and letting people in this far ... [ she tightens her grip on the key ] It's hard and it's scary. To say the least.

We're gonna help you, okay? If Donnie removes the blades, I'll heal the injuries. You'll be good as new. [ ... ] Um, after a nap.

[ The purple potion is a doozy. ]

"Of course not," Donnie said, holding a hand out in the air, forming a metal claw to remove the blades.

"My older brother, Raph, he has these...episodes, sometimes, when he ends up in high stress situations on his own. Childhood trauma, ill proper coping mechanism, yada yada. So when we know he's been on his own an extended time, we approach cautiously because he might lash out," he said, moving the claw to remove a sword from the neck when Korone was ready to heal. One at a time so she can heal the worst first with the most she energy she can.

"And of course when I'm overstimulated, I can lash out. Korone's seen that. Now its a rule to make sure I don't have a sharp thing before getting in range if I'm having a rough time." He very much does not look at Korone when he says this. "Then there's Dr. Delicate Touch with Mikey...and then there's dad with Rat Flu."

He huffs and shakes his head. "Sometimes family hurts each other. The part that matters is what you do after."

You weren't acting out of malice. [ She smiles at the dragon. Soft yet warm, and very much from the heart. ] We respect you. Your strength. Your feelings, your reasons.

[ The ring almost distracts her. She does glance down at it, but she's quick to refocus, especially when Donnie gets himself set up for removing the first of the blades. ]

… And I'd rather meet you with an open heart, you know?

[ She gives Donnie a nod to show that he can pull whenever he's ready. The moment he does, she starts casting, pouring on her healing magic to take care of that wound specifically — it's a warm, dappled feeling, like spring sunshine on raindrops, soothing pain as well as stopping the bleeding and mending the wound itself. Assuming it works, anyway, but listen, she is not half-assing this. If she has to recast, she has to recast. ]

"Then we'll show you how it's done," Donnie said, studying the rate the wounds are healing. "Adoption is a big thing in my family."

He reaches out his hands to Korone's shoulders. "Let me help, Songbird," he said softly, and pushing some of his own energy through the ninpo to her so the healing didn't take it all outof her.
bluediligence: (It's important not to judge.)

We'll teach you the ropes. [ Korone promises, echoing Donnie. ] It's okay if it takes time. It's okay if mistakes are made along the way; if someone stumbles, or falls.

A big part of being a family is reaching out. We'll be there for you, and we know you'll be there for us.

[ She leans back into Donnie's capable hands, grateful both for the physical contact and the magical assist. It's finally started to hit her that she'd blown past her old cast limit over the course of the fight. ]

Thanks, Donnie.
