So You Want to Be a Hero. [Friday, Period 4]

"First aid," a very hungover Yang, who had simply taken her earlier birthday celebration onto the mainland for the last day or so in an effort to outrun her feelings keep the party going, stated. "Something we probably should have talked about before the packing class, so you know what supplies to take, but something something hindsight."

"In my world, unless you're traveling with someone with a healing power, you need to carry at least a basic first aid kit. Grimm don't exactly patch you up after you slaughter them." Yang took a second to adjust her sunglasses to protect her eyes from the light better. Ugh. "Also, your healing teammate might be the one down-and-out, so you shouldn't ever count on them."

"So, what do you need to carry? Bandages, disinfectant, pain killers, and maybe stuff for a splint or two. Emergency flares. Trail rations, the type that taste terrible but never expire. A water filtration kit. Some of those foil blankets that fold up tiny but retain heat. Stimulants, so you can power through getting back to civilization or stave off falling asleep when you're concussed. Tweezers. Scissors. Needle, thread, and rope. And yes, this is all basic first aid, not just camping supplies."

"So tell me what type of first aid you'd carry on your world. Just... not loudly."

Sidon had a small smileon his face, one of those soft, quiet ones that would prbably be appreciated by Yang right now, but held layers of nuance.

One of those layers was sympathy for his teacher's current condition.

The other was sympathy for himself about how it was a shame that 'reviving your dead healer sister to keep at your side' wasn't really an option...

"Sometimes," he offered, very quiet and soft, especially for him, "food can have healing properties as well, so having a good deal of ingredients and the knowledge to cook them properly can help. But I suppose bandages and splints and the knowledge of how to take care of oneself truly can be invaluable."

Considering Sidon's small collection of prominent scars that he wore as proudly as his jewelry, though there was a good chance that healing wasn't always his highest priority.

But he was trying to be better about it in his burgeoning adulthood!
