"Hey, take it easy buddy ! It's not that bad..."

He groaned under your ministrations as his injury began to prickle with pain, the alcohol you had applied doing nothing to quell the discomfort.

As soon as you learned the man's newly found hobby was shooting, out of all places, you immediately knew he would be forever scarred from the gruesome wounds he would suffer… for the time being starting from now, at least.

Now here you are, watching as he pays the price for his reckless behavior with you keeping Aventurine under constant surveillance 24/7, fixing him up the moment a new scar appears on his body.

You know this is the only proper way to care for him, as there's no other 'doctor' that could properly tend to his wounds. You are determined to make your care for him perfect, all for the sake of his laughable hobby and career.

And yet, you can't help but think that the IPC shouldn’t have never allowed him to be a part of the shooting club in the first place.

“What did I say ?… Don’t just take it rough !”

You held back your tongue from having to spit out a sarcastic remark full of irony.
