a slight smile darted across their lips, "drugs, you say. well, i am not so skilled in making drugs as putting them to use back home. no, no. there aren't any good anesthetics here to relieve pain or damage to the body. we only have herbs here, literal plants, vagabond." they responded, amusement playing in their voice before they looked back to astéri with a fond look, "I've stitched my baby brother back together enough that I'm decently handled with it." they murmured.

gaze turning back to the beast of hell they tilted their head back, "I might look small and defenseless but if I had my other body, and so did he, I think you'd understand. as it is, I scared enough folk the first time I showed off my body." they laughed suddenly, a rare show of emotion for them.

as they spoke, curiosity sprang up in their chest, "hey. where did ya go? you smell funny. you really aren't ... used to these terms hey?" they spoke, pawing their nose. they felt some sort of familiarity or closeness with vagabond, perhaps because the other had given them food when they first came to the group. they had no way of knowing that vagabond had been in a human body prior, but intuition could be a scary thing.

huffing they tried out a small smile, "I'm little. I cant hurt you, better yet -- why would I want to hurt you? you havent proven yourself as somebody for me to be wary of or to be defensive around. I know you might not be ready to trust, but you gotta get that scrape looked at before it starts getting infected and makes you really weak. my papa died like that, his injuries got bad, at least he came back. I dunno if you will, so you should let me at least give you something for the infection. get it looked at by somebody who has bigger paws than me, they can put better herbs and plants on it. have you never heard of herbal remedies?" their tone went between condescending, to curious and back to a mixture of humor and seriousness. they seemed to know more than their body suggested, their mental age greater than their current physical age.
