Who: Anyone
When: Day 7, morning
Where: Labyrinth
What: A moral labyrinth

[Today the labyrinth opens again, this time as a golden gate that glitters in the sunlight (or moonlight depending on time shenanigans). When you approach, the gate's heavy golden doors open to the sound of blaring trumpets as a red carpet rolls out to you.]

[Should you step inside...]

[it takes a while for him to parse things and think through what he knows about this]

I'm conscious... it shouldn't be a problem. It could be worse. I just... [another pause] I need to lie down.

[abirdofplay]

N-nods, carrying him off to lie down]

Any other injuries?

[awaywithbirds]

It travelled down my back... that's all.

[so we'll have to look at that]

[abirdofplay]

You're sure there's not more I need to do?

[awaywithbirds]

[he's kind of light headed, but]

Unconscious victims need CPR... I'm still awake. It's probably... not too serious. Burns, maybe.

[the fabric of his clothes has burn marks travelling down the left side of his back]

[abirdofplay]

[Setting him down when they're a safe distance away so he can carefully peel off his shirt to check it out.]

[awaywithbirds]

[lying on his side so Bokuto can reach it, and makes a pained noise at the touch. as soon as he gets his shirt off, he'll see there's a branched vein of a burn over his left side and between his shoulderblades. it pretty much looks like this in it's pattern and it's probably going to scar. Akaashi rubs slightly at his forehead, breathing out]

How does it look...?

[abirdofplay]

It's gonna leave a mark, that's for sure.

[awaywithbirds]

[nods slightly, then]

I'm not... surprised.

[he's just glad he's alive]

[abirdofplay]

[Same, reaching up to brush Akaashi's bangs back]

[awaywithbirds]

[reaches up to take Bokuto's hand in his]

...we can't stay out here.

[abirdofplay]

Aa...

[Squeezing his hand]

We'll go inside and I'll get you cleaned up.

[awaywithbirds]

Mm. Help me up? I think I can walk.

[abirdofplay]

[Pulling him up carefully]

[awaywithbirds]

[he'll support himself on Bokuto, but it seems he can sort of walk, at least]

Thank you.

[abirdofplay]

Akaashi...you could have...

[awaywithbirds]

[tilts his head slightly so he can rest it against the side of Bokuto's]

I didn't. So don't think about it.

[abirdofplay]

R-right.

[awaywithbirds]

[breathing out. he doesn't want to think about it himself either]

Mine or your room?

[abirdofplay]

Mine.

[awaywithbirds]

All right.

[he'll stumble along with Bokuto as a crutch]

[abirdofplay]

Please just let me carry you!

[awaywithbirds]

My back, though...

[it'll hurt]

[abirdofplay]

Guh....

[awaywithbirds]

It's fine like this.
