[Kind?? He's not kind, ugh... Felix snorts at that, but he's quick to dismiss it as she moves on.]

Yeah, yeah. You'd better not hold back on me next time. I'll be pissed if you do.

[He starts making his way toward the doors, trying to keep from wincing. It's not easy going and it's really damn slow, but he can sort of hobble on his own, so at least there's that?]

I won't. You won't have to worry about that.

[Of course, Camilla does watch as he starts hobbling along, and you know. This could definitely be fine, and she could get back to her drills in peace and quiet while he does. He's not her responsibility by any means.

...

So naturally, Camilla is going to walk over, not even bothering to gather her things, clearing her throat to get his attention.]

Hold a moment. [Camilla folds her hands in front of her, polite as ever.] ...That's going to be an incredibly slow going process. Would you like some support to get you to the infirmary faster?

[This is just. Painful to watch, my dude. This is already a little excessive as it stands, but getting him there faster would be better than the whole damn monastery seeing Felix hobble along.]

[You know, the blush was starting to die down and Felix was perfectly content with leaving it at that and never addressing it again, but no. Here we are. Because Camilla's insisting on trying to help him.

So naturally, he goes pink and scoffs.]

I don't need any more help. I'm fine. I've got this.

[He makes it about as far as the doors before he realizes that he... kind of can't pull them open very easily like this...

The groan he lets out is loud and embarrassed.]

Just... help me get the door open, okay.

[being felix is suffering...]

[Camilla does inwardly wonder why this boy is going so red in the face, but she's coming to the conclusion that Felix is just. Incredibly like this--it's something she doesn't understand, really, the intricacies of this cactus of a boy who won't accept help...it just doesn't make sense. It almost reminds her of one of her little brothers, who used to be like this all of the time...

But she will, of course, go over and help get those doors for him with a gentle, slightly exasperated smile on her face the entire time.]

If you insist. But do simply try to be careful.

[...]

And do not try to rush yourself. You'll wind up making your injury worse if you do.

[oh my god stop nagging the poor boy camilla

Either way, she is absolutely going to wait by the doors and make sure Felix can at least hobble on out of sight, before she even attempts to go back. Because she will get him over to the infirmary herself if she has to.]

[it's fine camilla, don't worry, tsuns just be like this

He nods curtly at her words, mostly because he doesn't trust himself to speak at the moment. He doesn't know how to accept help or kindness like this in any sort of halfway sane manner, so it's easiest just to shut up and keep moving. He does take it slow, occasionally pausing for a moment to catch his breath and will down the pain, but he thankfully doesn't push himself too hard.

Better yet, it's not long before he ambushed by two people - a girl with long blonde hair tied back and a red-haired boy who is all too boisterous with Felix. He snaps at the latter and even though he's protesting (loudly, very loudly), they're quick to grab his arms around their shoulders and drag him off to the infirmary without any further fuss.]
