<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family:Open Sans">Eivind was in no mood to be dealing with nonsense, and there should have been a few found understanding of boundaries. If there wasn't, he was about to press upon Freyr the importance of respecting his claim, at least until Sig got in the way. Blue's scathing attitude changed the second he saw him, and he greeted him like a long lost friend, even if they were still hardly more than strangers at that point. Sig wrapped his arms carefully around Blue it return, but he frowned, worried for him. He did not seem well, no matter his enthusiasm. He kept hold of his wrist because it seemed to take some effort for him to rise to his full height.<br/>
<br/>
Eivind was still staring at Freyr, but eventually he turned around, hand on Blue's back when he asked of Alaric. Synnove had stopped whatever she was saying, and nodded now, but not without a hard pat to Sieger's shoulder, a clear signal for him to behave. The two males obviously needed to work out their issues, but right now wasn't the time.<br/>
<br/>
“I'll go get him. Go on home, you two. I'll send him to the cabin,” she told him, making it clear that they were still welcome no matter Sieger's attitude. Eivind nodded his thanks to her, and they made their way back to their cabin, Sig included, who was still clutching Blue. His worry was genuine, and surrounded by hostility, Eivind didn't take issue with one of the few friendly faces, even so close to his injured mate. It was like deja vu, bringing Blue to rest on the overstuffed couch, but even Eivind was happy to see his home again if only for the comforts it could afford him and Blue.<br/>
<br/>
“Not helpful enough, it seems,” Sig had told Blue, close and quiet once they were inside the cabin. Eivind was looking around for something in the kitchen, and then running upstairs, but it wasn't any use. Apparently Blue had taken every last pain pill along with them. He was about to go out and track Alaric down himself when he heard the door open, and the man shouting up the stairs to him.<br/>
<br/>
“I told you I wasn't putting him back together again!” Alaric reminded, and Eivind came back down to meet him. Eivind ignored him, and regardless, he'd brought along his medical supplies.<br/>
<br/>
“You need to look at him. I don't know what's going on. He never fully healed,” he explained, and Alaric's brows knitted together before he went to sit with Blue. To took not of Sig. Apparently he'd spoken truth about becoming friendly with the both of them, though it surprised him that Eivind would have accepted a stranger out in the wilderness.<br/>
<br/>
“Lay back, Blue,” Eivind instructed and Sig ran his fingers through his hair. Alaric lifted Blue's shirt to palpate his abdomen, and then side. It was hard to get any sort of idea what was actually going on, because of the pain the young man was in. Eivind was going through his things to Alaric's annoyance, at least until he found some pain pills. Alaric shook his head.<br/>
<br/>
“Don't bother. I'm going to start an IV on him. I'll give him some morphine. He's dehydrated anyway,” Alaric told him, checking his breathing next. Alaric hung the IV bag from the light fixture above them, but truthfully he didn't know what more he could do for Blue. He injected the stronger pain medication into the line, hoping that would give him relief. It was obvious he was more invested now with Blue. He'd arrived in worse condition, but Alaric was caring for him like he was one of their own.<br/>
<br/>
“I told you, Eivind. I'm not a doctor. You need to get him to one. I don't know what all is going on, just that it's not mending properly on his own. There's fluid in his chest cavity, which is causing his labored breathing,” Alaric told him, and Eivind was obviously prepared to pick Blue up right then and put him in the truck. Alaric stopped him.<br/>
<br/>
“Let the bag finish, and for him to rest just a few minutes. You guys just got here,” he told him, sure Blue didn't want to be yanked out against so fast.<br/>
<br/>
Eivind heaved a sigh, and then came around to sit beside Blue on the floor.<br/>
<br/>
“Shit, Blue. I should have done something sooner. Alaric was right. You needed a real doctor. We'll go soon. Just take it easy for a little bit,” Eivind decided, already thinking of the fastest route to the nearest emergency room. Humans were different. He needed to remember that.</span></span>
