Matthew looked at the doctor innocently. Pretending not to know that he just busted the man's nose. He let out a whimper sound as the man yelled at him and name called him. Eyes going wide with fear. He weakly turned on his side and pulled himself as close as his weak body could which wasn't far. Clinging to Viola tightly as he shook hard. Images flashing before his eyes. His father had said words very much like the first statement the man made. He whimpered and shook like a frightened child and looked at Viola. Searching her for signs he deserved to be hit for that.  rying to make himself curl up but crying in pain each time he did. Seeing none he relaxed some and uncurled. Crying out in pain as the action had hurt. Then like a child his mood flipped and he was glaring at the guy like it was his fault that it happened. In essence it was the guys fault. He watched Jin jerk the man backwards. Making a gargled sound that sounded like laughter. Then cough type sound as the oxygen from the tube didn't go well with the action of laughing. Soon he wasn't coughing anymore. He listened to what Jin said. In essence right now even though physically he was seventeen his mind was more between the ages of two and eight. Maybe ten at some points. So Jin had it right. He was a kid and vunerable. He whimpered a bit as he was still afraid but soon relaxed hearing the laughter from the two. Hearing them all laughing made him relax and feel better. If the safe people weren't mad then he was okay. He moved his free hand and thumbs upped Jin. He mouthed to them <He was a mean man. He deserved it being mean to me and everyone.> There you have it. Kid logic. That is how he was thinking for the most part. He looked at Viola. Pulling her hand weakly to his face as the nurse laid him back on his back. Nuzzling her hand showing her he was still aware he cared for her even if it didn't make sense all the way.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">The nurses voice carried into the room when the doctor was bitching to them about the situation.  "It serves you right for antagonizing someone whose mind is in a child mental state. We already forewarned you that he was showing signs of it. If you antagonized a "kid" then you got what happens when you do so. I feel no sympathy." She then walked in to finish the checks on the machines and what not. Looking at Jin and Tecca. "Goofs..." She said playfull with a giggle. "Anyways we'll be sending in the first shift doctor when she comes in. In the meantime I'll check him and give him his dose of painkiller. We're going to be attaching feeding IVs to him today. Just thought I'd let you all know." She then took Matthew's vitals, check the machines, and cleaned up matthews mouth from the foam that was building up on it from saliva and air. She bowed to them and left after putting pain killer into matthews iv.</span>
