she’s about to make a mad dash but. she sees his movement and can’t in good faith run off like that. so instead she just pauses before going back in front of the cage, staying at the same level as him before extending her uninjured hand out through the bars
reaching back, because one of her least favorite feelings in the world is when someone won’t take her hand when she offers it]
not what she was going for - but any contact seems to make her happy, and she gives him a very sincere smile as she shakes his hand and then. gives it a gentle, reassuring squeeze before pulling away. off she goes!
and she'll be back about thirty minutes later - and it's probably a little obvious why it took her a bit. she's carefully balancing everything! she's found a blanket, a pillow, pulled a tray from the kitchen, put chocolate on the side while there's a plate full of rice, veggies (no carrots), and chicken along with utensils.
apparently she's planning on staying a while as she's changed into a sleeping gown too and has an extra blanket, but she's at least put one of her fancy coats over her shoulders so it's not immediately obvious!! she will go back in front of the cage and move like. everything he asked for between the bars, plus the blanket.]
[once everything is over on his side, she'll take her own blanket and just move it around her shoulders as she settles in front of the cage, making herself comfortable like she has no intention of leaving. she honestly probably doesn't.
at his words, she blinks a bit before shaking her head]
Did not have to. Хочу. Want to.
I do not like you being here at all so... to give even a little to you - it is all I can do.
that makes her really happy as she settles in, not intending on going anywhere. she watches him enjoy the food for a little bit before she eventually pulls the blanket a little bit more around her and finally offers up her quiet explanation:]
... Anya voted for Anya.
Not you. So... предупреждение. They gave a warning.
[ . . . she frowns, but seems to accept it only after the last prod. there's no response, because she seems to be holding her tongue on her opinion for the moment but -
then she'll carefully extend her hand out from the blanket to meet his. it's her right hand, bandaged up, and it seems like the index finger and pinky are definitely missing right where they should be at from the knuckle
she doesn't look happy about it - and bows her head a little, very certain he's going to judge her for it]
[Despite all his stupid huffing earlier about shaking hands?? He takes Anya's injured hand in his own remaining one with zero ceremony or comment, turning it over to check the bandaging with a surprising degree of deft and gentle movement.]
It's clean. Good. But they're still bleeding—talk to Luna about cauterization. Bandaging isn't enough for this, and the last thing you need is a blood infection in this hellhole.
Other than that, I don't see any problem. You shouldn't, either. You've a thumb, and two other fingers, and you're clearly still able to hold things—[here, he gestures to the pile of things she kindly brought him]—and your ring finger, if that's something that matters to you.
[Her reactions are... well, it's hard to tell exactly what he feels about them, because his face never changes. But he watches her, and finally, frowns.]
Idiot. Look how upset you are about this. Even if you don't regret it, you knew there would be consequences from this hellhole.

ASKING A GIRL FOR STUFF LIKE THIS. BAD. FEELS VERY BAD!!! VERY IMPROPER............]

[LAYING AROUND..........]

she gives him a little bit of a fond look where sadness lingers at the edges, before she nods and then holds her bandaged hand closer to her]
... okay. Подождите. Wait... a little. I will be back very soon. I will try so you do not have to be alone for too long.
no subject
wait]
What happened to your hand?
no subject
she starts to dart away]
Anya is fine! Be back very soon.

the reactions of a completely innocent person]
Wait!

missing arm and hand

Возвращается. I am back.

—then wipes it on the leg of his pants with a guilty look, eyes darting, like a child attempting to erase evidence.
luckily, by the time Anya's back again, he's completely over it, because none of that ever happened in the first place!!!!!! ha!!!!!!
and what a spread. he looks on, dumbfounded, as she passes things through, mutely rearranging things to make space as more comes.]
You... didn't have to.
[why??? is she??? being??? so nice???]

Thank... you.
[There's a pause after he says it, and he fills it by just
digging directly into the chicken. Hell yea chicken]

that makes her really happy as she settles in, not intending on going anywhere. she watches him enjoy the food for a little bit before she eventually pulls the blanket a little bit more around her and finally offers up her quiet explanation:]
... Anya voted for Anya.
Not you. So... предупреждение. They gave a warning.
no subject
ah.]
You shouldn't have done that.
[ASCH??
...]
Is it cuts? [it's definitely not just cuts. but maybe it is just cuts. wouldn't it be great if it was just cuts.]
no subject
... Нет. No, but it is okay.
I do not regret.
no subject
Did you bandage it yourself, or did you go to Luna?
no subject
[a beat]
... will ask Luna tomorrow.
[given that she's probably pretty fucking distraught tonight]
no subject
Show me.
[it's not that he doesn't trust Toi, maybe one of the only valuable members of society in this house, but he does want to check his work.]
no subject
... No.
Некрасиво. It is... not pretty.
[actually, she just called it "ugly" directly - but he doesn't need to know the harsh language she's using]
no subject
Let me see it.
no subject
[but at least this time her protest is softer, a little bit more plaintive - she understands to some degree she's being unreasonable but
the shame weighs more heavily on her at the moment]
no subject
Don't.
No one with half a brain is going to care about something like that.
[He's stubbornly holding out his hand.
This is very funny, considering half his body is so screwed up, but here we are.]

... I can do what I need to here. So... I do not regret, and do not mind.
[but-
she wonders if this is even okay to disclose, if he would even care, or if she would just be mentioning something that isn't worth his time]
... it will be okay.
[she decides not to say it]
no subject
Idiot. Look how upset you are about this. Even if you don't regret it, you knew there would be consequences from this hellhole.
Why didn't you vote for me?
