"Broken nose, huh?" he murmurs, his dad's ample first aid training making it readily apparent to him. An extremely common, if quite painful, training injury - so he thinks nothing of asking how it happened. "They didn't help you at the training grounds?" The stirrings of indignance form in his chest at the idea. Had they really not helped her further? How unprofessional!
"Sure, we can do that. Though I think there are a few healers here with magical items if you don't want a lengthy journey." Unless she is really feeling the urge to get away from Stormbreak, something he wouldn't hold against her. "Otherwise we can just use the Fountain in Torchline." No awkward trip or bartering to be had. Satisfied with her cleaned face, Jude throws away the paper towel and instead gently holds her face with one hand, giving her a tiny smile. "You just say the word."

But what if I just always dance around on your string?
