(Continuing the story here! Hopefully Hela will be all fixed up soon. ^-^ Or at least have her wounds be clean.)

(Wish I could tag people.)

Jasper Jekyll:

( Jasper slowly releases her palm and takes the lidocaine to a wash bowl. She takes a vial and a jug of sterile water before opening the bottle. As she dilutes the anesthetic, she speaks. )

Hang on, I want you awake long enough for this to set in.

I'd rather not be blamed for your injuries just because every Jekyll heard your squawking- you know how they get.

Helen Jekyll:

She gave a slight nod, eyeing the needle with a subdued wariness.

Wonder if I'll even feel it, thought Hela, blinking slowly.

"C... Catt...?"

Catt Hatter:

She stepped closer to the bed so she could be seen.

"Yes, Hela? What is it?"

Helen Jekyll:

"You'll... stay here? I don't... I don't want to get... hurt again..."

Hela appeared rather anxious about the thought of her leaving.

Catt Hatter:

A small warm feeling spread in Catt's chest, bringing a gentle curve to her lips. She placed her hand next to hers, just shy of touching.

"I'll be right here for as long as you need me."

( The giant medic makes her way back with the prepared solution, pointedly ignoring the conversation. Under her breath. )

Let's see what we've got here.

( Carefully, she peels back the layers- eyeing them for any signs of further bleeding.

When she finds none, she takes the syringe...and promptly places her hand over Hela's eyes. )

Flinching back in surprise, she seized Catt's hand with a sharp inhale, squeezing and digging her nails into skin.

Despite the fear and near desperation behind the action, her grip on Catt was weak, far from its usual strength.

Catt gripped Hela's hand back, ignoring the small bite of nails. She made sure she didn't squeeze too hard, but was still firm so as to offer support.

"Remember to breathe Hela. Okay? Slow and steady." She said as soothingly as she could, almost murmuring.

Alright genius, you're so smart- you tell me something.

You're locked in a steel cell, surrounded by guards my size. They're armed with destabilizers. You have about an hour to get out before they shatter you. How're you gonna do it?

Hela exhaled in a shuddering breath and nodded, before letting out a soft whimper.

"Wha... I don't... understand..." Her voice wavered with uncertainty. "I can't..."

"Me neither." Catt agreed, laying her other hand over Hela's.
