tagged: jun shi. time: may 10th, 4pm. notes: bone break time. Alright. He had said 'alright', had agreed to not just take the finger off, and Lucien's brain seemed to falter in response. He'd agreed. He'd thought asking him what he wanted was a pretense--asking out of forced niceness, rather then because he had any actual say in things. Only he did have a say in it apparently. He'd actually gotten to decide what they did, and he stared in confusion.
He'd agreed, and the doctor left, and they were going to try and find a way to fix it. Maybe he wouldn't end up losing it, but even if he did, they'd have at least tried. They'd have made an effort to save it just because he said so, which was something that he'd absolutely never done with Jun Shi. Jun Shi only gave him choices to enjoy his suffering as he tried to pick. He never got to decide what actually happened to him, never got any say in his own living conditions.
Only Kun Shui had given him it. He'd let him choose, and all Lucien could do was stare, his hand limply held close to his chest, afraid and flushed. His cheeks were still wet, and the pain was still there--intense but not nearly as bad as it had been. He wanted painkillers and relief and surgery--there were so many things that he wanted, and he had never thought he'd get any choice in if he got them or not.
Only now he did.
Kun Shui was being kind. There was no other way to get around it. No other way to explain it. He was being kind purely for the sake of being kind. He wasn't going to get anything out of fixing Lucien's hand. He would only lose things, time and effort and money. He was doing it anyway though, in a way that Lucien himself never had.
He sat there in silence for several long moments before he finally responded, voice still whisper soft and hoarse. "Thank you. It - it means a lot."

tagged: Lucien Margaux. time: May 10th. 4PM. speech: kun shui. notes: - - - Silence as the doctor left, leaving him with a broken finger, a list of herbs and animal parts and a bottle of pills. That was all, apparently. Kun Shui sighed heavily, but didn’t sit down. It had been a long day and all he really wanted to do was have some wine and take a bath, but no, of course not. He moved to put the bottle of pills down on the desk but paused, deciding against hit. No, he wasn’t letting Lucien have access to a bottle of medication; he’d have to make sure he got it himself, or tell one of the butlers to do it.
He pocketed the piece of paper though, not even looking back at Lucien and about to go get a glass for some water when he spoke up. His voice was hoarse and raspy, probably from screaming too much. He’d lose it, likely for a while, but not something his own body wouldn’t patch up. He looked like a mess anyways; his hair was roughed up every which way, his cheeks were tear stained and his clothes were rumpled up. He’d need to get him a now robe.
Kun Shui nodded, a faint ‘hm’ sound, but no actual response. He went about everything rather mechanically; things were going to get done and of course, it needed to be by him. He’d be up all night finding a surgeon if the doctor couldn’t call him back with one within the next couple hours, and he’d have to keep an eye on Lucien. He didn’t want to deal with Jun Shi right now.
He came back with a glass of water, putting it by the bedside before opening the top of the bottle and shaking out two.
”Here, take these and just lie down or something.” He sat down on the bed with a heavy, exhausted sigh. He needed to sleep, but he wasn’t getting that, either.

tagged: jun shi. time: may 10th, 4pm. notes: bone break time. It was probably better that Kun Shui had the bottle of painkillers. Lucien wouldn't purposefully have overdosed, but he was very bad at dealing with his own pain, and probably would have taken too much. He felt like death warmed over, and he wanted nothing more then to sleep until he woke up and everything that was normal.
He knew he wouldn't though. If he managed to sleep at all, things wouldn't suddenly be better in the morning. His fingers would still be mangled, and he would still be a mess. His robe was ruined, and his body was soaked with sweat and tears. At least there wasn't any blood--that was a small consolation considering how screwed up everything else was.
Kun Shui didn't respond, but he did return with a glass of water and some painkillers. He was desperate for them, and he forced himself upright with a small whimper of pain as he reached out with his good hand, taking the glass and the pills and swallowing them down. It wouldn't be fast enough for him, but he would haev to manage. He'd have to wait. He didn't even bother asking for more. If he was allowed more, Kun Shui would have given them to him, and he settled back in the bed, letting his hand rest.
He kept sneaking glances at Kun Shui though. It was a frantic attempt by his brain to work it out--to understand why. Nothing could explain why Kun Shui was helping him at all, and he let himself rest in between, mind racing until the pain killers finally took over.
