Which wasn't really that surprising, he'd tripped over his own tongue at least three times in the last twenty minutes. He retracted his hand and cleared his throat as Eric and Andro walked in. After his tongue had sorted itself out...kind of, he was caught off guard again. The fact that Kathy wanted to stay and help was enough to bring a more confident smile to his face. In fact that was exactly what he had wanted to hear...he didn't quite realise it until Kathy's expression brightened and she moved off in search of supplies. With a happy smile on his face Crash turned his attention to Andromeda as Eric brought her into the infirmary. The shapeshifter blinked and looked over at Andromeda as she quickly muttered an apology, he hadn't actually heard exactly what she had said neither did he realise how his words had been taken thus the confused look on his face. As Eric moved away Crash quickly bent down to look over Andro's ankle though he had enough sense not to actually touch it until she'd at least finished talking to Eric. [color=red]"So judging by the looks of it, it's probably only a minor sprain...how painful is it? Can you weight bear at all? I'm going to have to touch it to bandage it but tell me if it's too painful...and sorry but we've got to elevate it"[/color] He told her [color=red]"If you sit back on the bed a bit and just place your foot on this pillow"[/color] With that said he pulled a pillow from one of the other beds and placed it on the one she was sat on so she could rest her foot on it. As Kathy brought over a selection of supplies, Crash gratefully took them from her with a smile of course, and placed them on the side of the bed. [color=red]"Thanks, one of these is bound to be perfect"[/color] He grinned, taking the cold compress and bandages from her, he put them on the bed beside Andro before wrapping the cooled gel pouch in a towel and providing the gorgon had shifted position, he placed it over her swollen ankle trying to be as gentle as he could. [color=red]"This needs to be on for 15-20 minutes every two to three hours today...for now I just wanted to get something cool on it before bandaging"[/color] He murmured, turning to look back at the assortment of bandages whilst Kathy spoke to Andromeda. [color=red][i]'I should have thought of that...'[/i][/color] It occurred to him that he may actually be out of practice as well. [color=red]"I'd say you were unique Andro, animal doesn't really fit well here"[/color] He chimed in just after the gorgon finished answering Kathy's question. He had just removed the cold compress from her foot and was about to bandage it up [color=red]"Sorry this might be a little painful"[/color] He apologised before getting to work, making sure he stayed focused on what he was doing so as not to hurt her. He had to admit he rather enjoyed this kind of thing...though treating people had never been his strong point, too many ways to embarrass himself or accidentally upset them when he opened his mouth. The bandaging didn't take long at all and once he was done, he put the cold compress back for the time being [color=red]"So in this situation, just think price. Protect, Rest, Ice, Compress and Elevate. And be sure to steer clear of harm. Heat, Alcohol, Running and Massage...if it's too painful you could take some paracetamol or apply more of this gel, I mean you could take the tablets. You could also use Arnica gel, it'll bring out the bruising and the swelling faster, relieve some of the pain...just make sure you're not allergic to it before you use it"[/color] He grinned at her, then realised how much of a tangent he'd gone off on. [color=red]"Er-erm well...I mean you could do that stuff, but Lily will probably be able to fix you up properly tomorrow..."[/color] He quickly corrected himself, rubbing the back of his neck. [color=red]"She wants you to stop by tomorrow to see her"[/color] He added, before he stepped away and glanced at Kathy before back at Andromeda [color=red]"All done...well unless you want to take one of those tablets now"[/color] He commented pointing at the bottle in Kathy's hand. [color=red]"Also, remember to rest it as much as possible and keep your foot elevated! Don't let her overdo it on the way to her room Eric"[/color] He tacked on the end, clumsy with his words but clearly concerned for Andro.
