[she knows that. she's been working her magic on him all along with the understanding she would have to go about it slowly, carefully, and without an ounce of waste. her planning is directed so far ahead that even if her magical energy cut out on her completely, there's still enough of it shared between them for her to set the bones, the final step.
but he's right. logically, practically, rin has no reason to fix the break and add all the bells and whistles of the luxury of magical anesthesia. the numbing continues anyway. in the next minute or two, any remaining twinges of pain from his ankle will have disappeared, and stay disappeared.]
Can it. I told you before it's not something I can do, to just leave you like this. [she speaks distractedly, in a tone that's quiet and maybe out of place in how tender it is, and what could sound something like her scolding him is instead more a request for him to just accept it. please. at the end, though, she does make a soft "pfff" underneath her breath, like his ridiculousness never ceases to amaze.] If this is your idea of a date, I don't know whether to feel sorry for you or teach you better. Pickings are already terrible around here.
