IT'S disheartening, seeing Scott like this, forcing a smile when it's obvious he's in pain, and hosting this when he should be resting. He knows, though, that people don't like to be controlled by their hurts. He knew a man who lost sight in one of his eyes but immediately came with them all on a job even if his chance of getting out was reduced. He made it, luckily. North doesn't think this is far off from that in terms of wanting autonomy after a severe injury. The serval returns the smile and remains quiet while the others speak, Jones making a joke, and then Koda asking the forbidden question. It's not wrong to ask it but the reaction is rarely a good one, and sure enough, Scott's reply isn't too thrilled. Worried blue eyes follow the Doberman, but he doesn't say anything.
The others begin filing in, Lorraine and Yuuma, Bigby and Dante, Trey and Ben. It's a good turnout, and they're writing their things down when it's Bigby who says another forbidden phrase. North's not the aggrieved party but he guesses he thought they did this already. Maybe not if they're saying what they are, or it's just that North is naturally careful where he steps when he's talking to someone. He's glad Ben is here. He hopes it doesn't happen, but if anything does he's here.
North winces internally when Scott freezes, his eyes wide. He breaks off what he'd been saying to Bigby, and it's like he's stuck there. The serval knows panic when he sees it, but the response is different depending on the person. "Scott?" He glances at Ben, looking for help, though he limps toward Scott anyway. "Scott, can you hear me? You're going to be okay. I need you to breathe for me, alright?" He doesn't know if Scott can hear him, but he won't touch him yet. What they need is something cool. "Just like this. In through the nose," he inhales louder than he normally would,"one, two, now out through your mouth." He exhales, and that's louder too. "In through the nose, one two, out through the mouth, one two."
North hopes to whoever's up there that this helps, even if it's just a little.
