[it hurts, in a way. to be so close to someone who died so recently and not be able to do anything about it. not like in an emotional way, though thom doesn't care how many situations he gets called out to with the team, he's never going to be okay with seeing people hurt but.
physically. it hurts. he feels like he should be able to do something. fix something.
but all there is here for him in this room is one dead body and one living one, and neither of them are bleeding anywhere obvious for him to patch up. yet, anyway. thom wonders if his powers can knit back together already dead flesh, if there's even a point in trying.]
You have a heart. [thom tells the stranger with a sigh and a squint in his direction to be sure just in case. everything about this place seems to call for a 'just in case'.] I'd definitely be able to tell if you didn't. [he pales slightly a second after.] N-not that I'm saying we should use your heart. Or mine either. The dead guy.
We should... definitely. Use the dead guy. Oh god, that sounds terrible. [don't mind him, he's just going to bury his head in his hands and wait for this to all be over, okay thanks.]
