Adrian Chapradeur
"Oh, I'll be fine." I wave the bandages away even though I'm feeling woozy. I adjust the mask on my face, switching the position of the feathers for a little more anonymity - what can I say? Old habits die hard.
I've had worse; so, so much worse. I can remember waking up with my chest slashed open. I can remember being dragged to safety with my shoulder, knee, and wing dislocated - and I can remember fighting off one remaining cat-person while holding in my intestines. It hadn't been fun.
I grit my teeth as the cat-girl goes on about her non-existent healing powers. "You know," I half-say, half-spit, bringing one huge wing around my torso to preen the feathers, "hearing about your non-existent healing powers makes me feel a whole lot better. So thanks."
