[action; infirmary; locked to katara and toph--read ooc note]

[Once the bones had been set and the sling tightly bound around his upper torso and shoulders to keep the one arm close to his body, Zuko was still unresponsive, but his breathing did manage to even out after a while. His chest rose and fell with each deep breath he took while unconscious, completely and blissfully unaware of whoever was in the room with him an hour after Katara and Toph had hurried him to the Infirmary for Dr. Kadowaki to tend to what Katara couldn't heal on her own.]



[ooc; right after this; if word ends up reaching the other atla cast, this is also open to you guys as well since ... well they were all in the class prior to this happening :)]

[With the doctor leaving the room for the moment, Zuko wonders what she means by she can heal with her waterbending. He doesn't wonder for too long because hey ... it's helping with the pain and that's all that matters to him.

Zuko brings up his unbound arm slowly to try to find one of her arms, feeling along it until finding one of her hands which he touches first but then covers lightly. The skin of her hand is slightly cold to touch due to the water acting as a healing agent, but he pulls his hand away a few moments later and lifts it up to look at it.]

Healing... through waterbending...

[The water is almost released from her hold when his hand covers hers, mostly from surprise-- but she manages to keep her concentration on directing the flow of chi in his neck region. Katara can't help but sneak a glance over to him as he releases her and looks at his hand.]

It's just a branch of waterbending-- not everyone can do it. [There was a hint of pride in her tone as she revealed this piece of information. Seeing that he isn't showing any visible signs of pain now, Katara retracts her hands and guides the water back into the basin before picking up the napkin of fruits she had practically thrown onto his chest from her earlier haste.]

Now eat.
