O'course 's okay.

[There's a relief he wanted to show, but he hides it. Right now, Eric needs to be able to learn control and not freak out.]

And this time, how about ya really ask for help this time? [Almost like a reminiscent of how Fujishima talked to Eric, but at the same time, not quite.]

Ah, right... I need some help, please.

[ With more then he even knows what to deal with. But one thing a time. ]

[Izumo pats his head before dropping his hand.]

It just won't be me helping ya. The others will help ya, too.

[ Eric frowns a bit at the patting but it does help to make him feel better at least. ]

...Homra really is a weird place

[That has him chuckling, a hand on Eric's shoulder as he carefully maneuvers him out of the bar.]

It may be weird, but we're all like one big dysfunctional family.

[ The help is appreciated ]

Makes it even weirder, to be a family...

[ He never really heard of that in any other gang. one of them hanged out this often, or treated each other with this much respect to everyone, especially the lower ones. It was such a huge difference between Hikawa and Homra that he had a hard time wrapping his head around it. Family, huh? ]

You'll get used ta it.

[It's the best way to describe their Clan. They're loud and rowdy, almost always getting into trouble, but even so, they're a lovable bunch.]

Hmm

[ He doesn't say anything to that, because to get used to a family again doesn't seem possible to him right now. ]

[Eric is surrounded by patient people, so it's okay.

But Izumo's leading Eric far away from the carnage and back into the city. They still need to run that errand of Izumo's before they can safely return to the bar.]

[ Patient people Eric doesn't feel like he deserves to be with but he's not going to mention it right now.

Eric follows obediently and quietly though he is not in the mood to be in the bustling areas again, he'll tolerate it. There was still an errand Kusanagi had mentioned to run ]

[Fortunately, the errand doesn't take long. All Izumo needed to do was pick up some supplies from a nearby store before they finally make their way back to HOMRA.

He glances back at Eric.] Let's not mention what happened earlier ta the others, okay?

[ He looks at Kusanagi's hand and singed clothing to his own slightly burned hand and arm and the burnt fabric of his sweater. ]

If they're not back when we get back...

They'll ask. They're a nosy bunch like that.

[He sees Eric looking at the burns.] But let's get these burns cleaned up first when we get back.

[ He nods they do love to bud into other peoples business. Especially when it came to other members.

He tries to put his hurt hand behind him. As if that means Kusanagi jadn't noticed it already. ]

...I'm fine.

[ Stubborn Eric is stubborn. ]

Ya may be fine, but I still wanna take a look at it.

[ That is another weird thing about Homra...treating injuries so diligently. Why not just leave it as a reminder or punishment? ]

Just so weird...

[Because they already have members who like to beat themselves up as punishment.

Izumo chuckles.]

[ At the chuckle Eric huffs and decides to pull up his hoodie over his head, trying to hide his face as best as he could before he shoved his hands into his pockets. He was just confirming his statement. ]

[It doesn't bug Izumo at all, at least. He's used to being called weird, and the others are the same.

They soon arrive at the bar, though, and fortunately, no one seems to be back yet. At least, that's what it seems like but Izumo's always been aware of his bar, so he suspects Mikoto's upstairs in his room sleeping.

Which makes it easier for Izumo to take Eric to the back, placing the supplies in a closet somewhere before he goes to get the first aid kit.] Take a seat.

[ Eric welcones the quiet bar and follows Kusanagi to the back. He jumps a bit at the small order before scrambling 9ver to one of the stools. ]

Ah y-yes.

[He comes over with the first aid kit, placing it on the counter while he takes a seat on the stool next to him.

Izumo holds out his hand to Eric.] Lemme see.

[ He fidgets a bit, eyeing the kit and the hand offered. They've done this before, patching him up, but he was still wary over it.

It takes a little while before Eric takes his hand slowly out of his pocket and places it on Kusanagi's. Though his face was neutral he was watching intently for any sign to withdraw his hand.]

[Izumo examines the burns carefully, taking in everything to see if it's worse than a minor burn.

He digs into the kit to get some burn gel, gently applying it onto Eric's hand. He's quiet as he works, not once saying anything.]

[ Eric squirms a bit as his hand is examined. He lets out a small whimper when the gel is applied shutting his eyes. It was just something to help heal him, that was it. But still it made him on edge. ]

[Eyes flickers over to him at the small whimper.]

Is it bothering ya? [He gently soothes the gel over the burns, almost making it seem like he's massaging Eric's hand in the process, too.]
