There are tears in Davin's eyes and blood on his eyes, and he bites back a
sob as he clutches James to his chest. He allows himself that one moment of
panic and then takes a breath and steadies himself. Edan is chittering
worriedly and sniffing at James, ears pinned back against his head.
James' last words are what really snap Davin out of his panic and he shakes
his head, looking into James' eyes. "Hey, stop it with that shit. Do not
start sayin' goodbye, or I'll kick your ass."
He sits James up and holds his hand over the wound, fingers glowing blue.
"I'm gonna-- this is gonna hurt but I'm gonna take the bullet out, okay?
Edan, go out t'the car and kit me kit, aye? Hurry."
The fox yips and tears up the basement stairs in a burst of speed, and
Davin turns his attention back to James. He's already pale from blood loss,
and Davin leans in to kiss his clammy forehead. "Hey, I know ya don't like
'em, but you've got a witch on your side, aye? I'm gonna fix ya up right as
rain."
He keeps staring at James' face and suddenly calls on the bullet, drawing
it out in the same path it went in. Davin knows that it has to hurt, but
he's still relieved when the flattened slug lands in Davin's palm. James'
blood is so warm, and Davin hates the feeling of it on his hands.
"Sorry, babe. Edan's gonna bring me some potions and I'm gonna fix ya right
up, okay?" Davin says again, rocking James a little as he waits. "You're
gonna walk right outta here."
