Once Frau was satisfied that the wound was clean he started bandaging Hitsugaya up, using a liberal amount of cause and covering. He didn't want it to start bleeding through, and the injury looked serious enough that it very well could do that if Frau wasn't careful enough.

"That's good at least... not that we know when anything is coming back."

He finished the bandaging with a few pieces of tape and stood up before heading to the sink to wash his hands. While he was in the kitchen he started to make a mug of hot chocolate for Hitsugaya. It should both warm him up and help replenish some of the blood he'd lost.

He eyed the bandage work critically. Maybe he had no reason to examine it that intently, but that was how he did nearly everything. It wasn't something that he could help.

It occurred to him after Frau left the room that he should check in with work to let them know he'd be delayed. He was nothing if not responsible. And he was mildly suprised when he pulled out his NV to do that, that there was a message from the offices, asking everyone to let them know their status. Because powers had been cancelled out over the whole city.

The whole damned city. This wasn't just a Void.

He sent in a quick text, letting them know he was also affected by the outage, but he'd gotten indoors and was in no immediate danger. Nothing about being injured. Nobody else needed to know that. Superfluous information, of course.

Of course, Hitsugaya wasn't going to spend the whole time here sitting in the bathroom; that was more undignified than he cared to be. He used his sword to help him stand again, but declined using it as a crutch while he walked this time. He could balance fine, as long as he took it a bit slow.

He silently watched for a moment as Frau prepared a drink. "Everyone in the city got hit with this."

Frau startled a moment at that news and almost knocked over the cup of hot water he'd just pulled out of the microwave.

"You're kidding..."

Only he couldn't think of a reason why Hitsugaya would kid about this. Hell, why he would kid about anything. Well, that added a whole new twist to this whole thing, but in a way it made him feel better. It meant that something hadn't randomly happened to him. There was an explanation.

Pushing all of that aside for the moment, he nodded toward the two mugs of warm water on the counter.

"Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?"

No, he didn't get to chose none. If he did, Frau would just pick one for him. Probably hot chocolate. Completely with marshmallows just to be an ass.

"Since when do I ever kid about anything?"

Anybody he would actually joke around with in his own way -- yes, he did actually have a sense of humour -- was gone. Well. Ella was back, but that was hardly relevant to the situation at hand.

"Probably a Core flux or something of the sort." He scowled at that last option. "Tea."

Frau didn't feel the need to comment to the question. After all, he'd come to the same conclusions himself. He nodded at the request and dropped two tea bags into the cups before walking them over to the couch in their living room.

So far Teito was still asleep, and Frau hoped it would stay that way. The kid didn't need to worry about this quite yet.

"You want anything else?"

He took the cup after sitting down. The tea warmed his hands, and he couldn't help the brow furrow at the fact that it felt pleasant. That was not supposed to feel pleasant. Everything was backwards.

"I'm fine."

"Sure you're fine. You're always fine."

Frau wasn't being sarcastic either. He meant it. There hadn't yet been a moment when he'd met Hitsugaya where he couldn't be considered fine. That wasn't what Frau had been getting at when he asked if he needed anything else.

"That doesn't mean you couldn't want something that would make you more comfortable."

And that brow furrow turned into a scowl when Frau decided to debate this point. What, precisely, had been wrong with what he'd said?

"I said I'm fine; it's not difficult to understand what that means. Now leave it alone."

The only thing he'd really count on to make him more comfortable right now anyway was getting his power back. That was out of Frau's hands and probably in the Core's.

Frau shrugged. Personally he could think of a few things that would make him feel better if he was in Hitsugaya's situation, but he wouldn't voice them all. He would, however, share one. It seemed to be the one that was least likely to show weakness. The most likely to wake Teito too if Hitsugaya agreed, but whatever.

"Personally I'd want to get out of blood clothes and have something clean to wear."
