The Wizard makes a hand motion off to the side for Five. As Gyre and Luka get up to their healing shenanigans, Five wanders over to her to offer Fen out like a basketball to her. They have some minor smalltalk that gets buried by the disconcerting sound of Luka's nose mending.
Despite the shifting bits in his nose and the soft crunching of cartilage realigning and healing together, it doesn't hurt. It's not comfortable, of course, like pressing a thumb hard into your foot or palm and moving it around. But it doesn't hurt. It's. Just. Not normal.
That didn't make it any less psychologically astonishing as the healing process mends his nose and heals the skin on his hand.
But hey, it was the little costs for good outcomes, right?
Ten, meanwhile, stands to the side and just glances between Luka and Gyre, and Five and the Wizard's conversation with Fen.
