[ Similarly, Nelson's only being prickly because his own capabilities were put into question... he doesn't aim for cruelty, but he takes on a very mildly defensive tone. ]

I'm only saying that between the two of us, I'm hardly the one who needs to be more careful. [ A pause. ] And also the one who knows my way around a broken bone.

[ He waves his hand defensively. ][ He saved Reim's life not too long ago back home thanks to his knowledge. ] I'm not that hopeless!

I never said you were hopeless. I think very few people are hopeless. But that most don't know their own limits, either.

I know my limits as well.

A broken nose isn't a big deal. It'll heal in no time.

It'll certainly go faster now that it's on the road to healing properly.

[ He gives Gil a mildly skeptical look, but sighs. No sense in arguing, they do that enough. ]

Well. If you say so.

[ He rubs the back of his neck a tad nervously and gestures to the entrance. ]

I should see you out.

Right. Uh -- I can see myself out. Thank you for the water.

[ He heads over to the door before Gil can, stepping quickly. ]

Feel better soon. Make sure you take it easy, there's only so much the body can recover from.

It's fine. It's only right if I do. [ He doesn't want to be a rude host or whatever. He follows Nelson, though he keeps the distance between them just in case Nelson needs it. ]

Thank you and sorry for troubling you. I'll [ the corner of his mouth twitches ] be more careful in the future, of course.

[ Nelson turns to give Gil another slightly worried look over, before he nods and pats his shoulder once. ]

Don't apologize. Just let me know if you need anymore help with it, all right? Or at least take yourself in to see a doctor. [ He touches the doorknob. ] Um -- yes, I'll see you later.

[ He follows the hand and stares at his shoulder, even long after Nelson's hand is removed. ]

Alright. [ He won't see a doctor or ask Nelson again. He's also going to make sure not to pick up the phone when he sees Nelson's ID pop up. ]

Take care.
