[ izumo will definitely take in the terrible state of her person and only briefly think of the sores she came with on her hands and face along with the healing stab wound on the bottom of her foot. of course, there is something else but that one is less visually offensive. ]
A, ah... [ she'll look at her hands and grip at her pants. ] I do.
[ there's no way she'd go back on her word and stay in her room after arranging things but she's also not just going to leave like some vagabond. ]
Do...do you want me to help with anything before I leave?
[ izumo is painfully curious about what happened but she won't push ochako, especially since she's likely going to read into her with the assumption she's just like another annoying girl she knows from home. a girl who just don't know when to quit even after she's banged up and pushed herself far harder than necessary. ]
[ she would have felt bad, leaving izumo alone. at least she'll be safer this way, with someone at her side.
still, the offer is appreciated - even if it does mean ochako bites at her lip uncertainly for a moment before nodding. it's obvious that izumo doesn't really like her, for whatever reason, but ochako isn't too prideful to accept help once in a while. ]
Can you just check that the bandages on my shoulder are secured enough? I had to redo them a little earlier, so I'm worried they might come loose.
[ with a nod, she'll make her way closer to ochako and proceed to check on the bandage as she also winces at the sight that awaits her. and even though she's see it, seeing it up close is different.
her touch gentle as she makes sure everything is secure and rightly covering the wounds. ]
[ for someone like izumo, the idea of fighting others here isn't as miserable but that's for someone like her. and she's aware enough to know who in the minority she is.
I think they did, but... It’s like they couldn’t control themselves. There were moments when they could, and they talked to us, but it wasn’t for long before they were trying to kill us again.
Hm, I wouldn't say a puppet, but like they were overwhelmed with... with the desire to kill us? And they were trying to regain control from the inside, but I guess that feeling was too powerful to keep it.

...what did all of you get into?

[ her voice is quiet as she replies, lacking her usual peppy demeanor. ]
There were monsters that attacked us, and… [ deep breaths, ochako. ] We had to fight Soo-won-san and Xie Lian-san, too.
