[ He does likewise wince some from the sting of being tended to, but it's not entirely too bad. The cuts are still pretty raw, painful as they heal, but he's making sure they don't get worse because that would be all they need.
It's ... weirdly nostalgic, too, he thinks, being taken care of like this. The comparisons are stark; this dirty, dark room compared to a bright sterile medbay. Blue's focused concern in his care directed at him personally, instead of doctors trained and doing their jobs whose names Yzak doesn't even remember (though, they're gone too, aren't they). Yzak's humiliation, the ugly boiling of outright hatred and revenge he felt so easily back then, probably on par with the nastier things Blue's felt from humans toward Mu in his experiences, whereas now ... those sorts of feelings aren't there anymore. Capable still in him? Absolutely. But it's not even due to the exhaustion setting in that he doesn't feel it, it's because it's been so long, and that he's changed since then.
(of course, he's still a Normal Amount of Big Mad about this whole situation - which for Yzak is always a little more dramatic than most, so, ya know) ]
Thank you.
[ He runs his own hand over the bandage work before standing to do as suggested. But before he moves, he peels off the overcoat he had on outside and holds it out to Blue. ]
