( at first, wei wuxian watches the steady smearing of blood along the red inflammation and the deadened bits. then his eyes lift (a bit surreptitiously) to wen ning's face, to the stubborn determination that has taken hold of the man's features. even having done what he did to bring life back to ning's body, it still shakes him a bit every time the man so readily throws himself into fighting for wei wuxian's well-being. sure, he had asked for this favor, but wen ning didn't hesitate for a moment in fulfilling it.
wei ying's lips press together a bit, eyes dropping back down to his sorry excuse for an arm. it's bloodied nearly down to his hand by now and he's half-tempted to call the man off, to make certain his friend doesn't lose too much blood, but what good will that do? the grim fact of the matter is that unless they wipe it away altogether, it will only come back. and so he holds his tongue until he's bloodied down to his fingertips, then his free hand lifts to ning's shoulder in an appreciative grip. )
Bandage that up, alright? I'll be fine from here. ( he should thank him. however obvious it may be in his grateful tone, he should say the words. and perhaps he will in a bit, with a little distance between them and all of this, but the words are inexplicably more difficult right at this moment. )
