"Dr. Stacia says that you probably shouldn't get into any more monster fights for at least twenty-four hours, or however long this takes to heal," Stacia says dryly. "You know, like that's a choice we can make for ourselves rather than something forced upon us by circumstance."

She gently pats the last bandage into place. "I'd be concerned if you were a normal human, but I think you're probably fine. Get yourself some protein and a nap when we get to safety, and let someone know if you start having chills or something starts smelling gross."

And isn't it wild that "blood" doesn't count as "gross" anymore? The things being one of Gaia's shifting children does to a person.
