"Just how many injuries did you sustain?"
She grasps Iniago's wrist as he moves her shirt, steeling herself for the alcohol before she releases him, taking a breath. "Two."
"You should have let her do what she would," he murmurs to her, rolling her shirt up out of the way as he studies the wound on her side. "It would've save you from this one."
A sharp gasp with a groan escapes as he pours the alcohol over the gash, and her hand balls up in the fabric she lays on. ""Et'ja nimi yit drat? Jion," she grounds out quickly with a wavering voice as her squeeze shut, half forgetting common tongue for a brief moment. (And let her kill you? No.) "I couldn't."
He quickly wipes the blood away. "It was reckless! What if the man had the right thought to drive the very knife you cut yourself with any further?" he asks in return. "He could as easily killed you!" Seeing the wound and the blood, he murmurs to Caspian, "We need to cauterize it-- at least to stop the bleeding."
"The damn bastard was hell bent on keeping me alive," she said between breathes, the sting moving to the wound on her back. "He wasn't going to."
"Yes, and he very nearly killed you for a third time."

Jaw ticking at Iniago's words, Caspian looks at Iberia for a moment, blue eyes studying before he turns and walks to the kitchen. Grabbing a knife, he heats the blade over the fire, teeth gritting at the pain shooting through him with each second he stays neat the flames before he returns to her side, face pale, breathing labored "Forgive me, for this." he murmurs, voice low before he presses the piping hot metal to the wound, tense

"Forgive me, for this."
Iberia turns her gaze to him, though his movements didn't register until after the searing hot flame tears through her side. A strangled scream escapes, her hand finding his shirt as she tensed and held her breath, the scream having faded to a low groan as colors dance across her gaze.
Iniago grimaces, taking a few steps back and crouches a moment until the pain subsides, head low with the rag in one hand while he sets the alcohol on the floor for the moment. Once he's recovered enough, he goes for the bandages, taking note of the ones Caspian had put on her for her shoulder that could be seen from her ribs.

"Stay awake." Caspian mutters lowly, voice cracking at the end as his hand covers hers, trying to ground her "You have to."

"Stay awake. You have to."
Caramel eyes stares at the ceiling as her breath shudders, tears pricking the corners as she bites her lip. "I'm awake," she croaks, her hand tightening in his as she turns her head at Iniago's footsteps, her hair falling across her brow..
Iniago comes back over, jaw loosening. "We need to sit her up and wrap the wounds," he says quietly, then looks at Caspian. "When was the last time those on her shoulder had been changed?"

"I'm awake,"
"We need to sit her up and wrap the wounds. When was the last time those on her shoulder had been changed?"
"I haven't changed them since I put them on her." Caspian mutters quietly, hand still around hers as he looks at the man "You need to rest, as well. I can wrap her wounds, if need be."

"I haven't changed them since I put them on her. You need to rest, as well. I can wrap her wounds, if need be."
Iniago stares at him a moment, though the exhaustion is evident in his gaze. He hesitates, but when Iberia's hand finds his arm, she musters a small one sided smile of reassurance as her eyes close. "I'll be all right, thanks to you, Iniago. Tcha avij. (Go rest)."
"Sherai," he murmurs, though a moment later he sighs and lays the bandages by her, giving her good shoulder a squeeze. "Yir malv, sherai. (Thank you) If you need my help, don't hesitate to call for me," he says to Caspian, stepping back. "Just make sure to clean the others before bandaging."
Her hand falls from his arm as he steps away and goes out of the room, and she pulls it back to her as she cracks open her eyes once again. "I'm sorry causing you trouble, blacksmith," she whispers.

"I'm sorry causing you trouble, blacksmith,"
"I will." Caspian murmurs, watching him leave before his gaze flicks to her, shaking his head at her words as he lifts the rag along with the alcohol "You aren't causing me trouble. I'm just sorry I didn't get there sooner."

"I will." You aren't causing me trouble. I'm just sorry I didn't get there sooner."
She gives a meager shake of her head, brow glistening a little from the effort of keeping herself steady. "You couldn't have known sooner." Seeing him pick up the ran and alcohol, she takes a deep breath and slowly sits herself up, pale faced as the world seems to spin, and she reaches up and unbuttons her shirt, curving one side around to keep herself covered and still allow him to get the one on her lower back. "I just should have known to take my sword with me."

"You couldn't have known sooner. I just should have known to take my sword with me."
"I'll avert my eyes as much as I can." Caspian murmurs, voice quiet as he mulls over her first statements, hands careful as he pours alcohol into the wound, dabbing at it with the rag

"I'll avert my eyes as much as I can."
She hisses, jerking a little at the sting, but it doesn't compare to the burning she still feels on her side. "It wouldn't be a first time," she murmurs, head hanging just a little as her hair slips from the bun it was in, spilling over her shoulder.

"It wouldn't be a first time,"
"For?" Caspian murmurs, wrapping that wound before he moves on to clean the others, gaze cautious

"For?"
"You had to clean them only two nights ago," she answers, eyes closed as she moves the shirt, her hair keeping her mildly covered. Her tattoos shimmer a little in the light with sweat, with the one on her back and left shoulder blade, the one on her bicep. "This would make the second time you've bandaged me."

"You had to clean them only two nights ago. This would make the second time you've bandaged me."
Clearing his throat, Caspian sighs softly, small smirk crossing his face at her words "I believe I tried my best to look away, then, as well, chief." he murmurs, gently cleaning the fresh wound, trying to keep his eyes from roaming

"I believe I tried my best to look away, then, as well, chief."
"I know," she murmurs, voice almost a whisper as her head bobs a little, but she jolts as she feels the alcohol, her eyes opening again.
