I WANT TO BE FOREVER YOUNG! { .:*・°☆ } ——— [size=10pt]info

This would not have been the first injury he came across on this territory, in fact, it seemed somewhat common. Someone would get injured, someone else would help them get back on their feet, and then they could chose if they wanted to stay or go. Usually they seemed to stay, after all, it was better to be part of a group than to be alone and so vulnerable. It came down to that whole mortality thing. Not that everyone needed company, some of them could stand just fine on their own again they just chose to stay on their own free will with no other need entwined with their decision. Alex was....not like that. He needed the safety of the group or else he'd be surely dead come morning. He wasn't injured or anything when he found the Ascendants, just small and helpless.

The single word Myliu was able to sound off was enough to pull Alexander over to the scene, which was immediately regretted as the sour tang of blood caused his stomach to be hit with a sharp feeling of nausea. He hated blood. Granted, most didn't like it, but there was a difference between simply scrunching up your nose to the scent or cringing at the injury at hand than becoming sick from it. But in this damned scenario, it didn't seem like there would be much else he could do besides try and help. He could turn tail and run, but he'd be leaving an injured creature and a small child together, surely they'd bleed out by that point.

And then, Margaery. Oh, thank god. She could help, right? At least she could keep the situation level.

Alex whined, not able to coherently speak his mind as he stumbled over and in a split second decision, waddled over and attempted to hold the wound closed with his paws. He didn't have any fabric or something to keep it together otherwise, and the only thing his young little mind thought up was "hold it closed".
