Yeah... [ He doesn't really go much further about Jacob. What's there to even say?
Doesn't mean he couldn't check on Archie, but he'd much rather get this arm fixed first. He takes off his jacket and tosses it on to a nearby cot. ]
Let's get this over with, okay? I'm going to try to do it fast, so uh- [ This was going to hurt. If it worked. ] Let's just try to make the whole thing fast.
Arceus, this is fuckin' stupid. If I start screaming, just stop, maybe? Last thing I want is the bone to grow over them somehow...
[though that's worst case, he imagines. he has the little handheld rotor saw to get the cast off on the table next to the painkillers with some water. gestures to them.]
You want some painkillers before we do this? It's gonna hurt. I'll start healing you myself immediately but I can't do anything about pain.
[he keeps his hand on finn-- he can't push the healing out any faster and there's already a little bit of sweat on his forehead from this small amount. idiot hasn't recovered from cass yet, either.]
[ Finn was just about to help with the cast when Archie asked his question. Instead, he rolled up the sleeve of his shirt and turned his arm this way and that. ]
[ He's never done anything like this before and is pretty wary about slicing right into Archie's damn arm, but he takes the little saw and goes at the job with gusto, anyway. ] I can't help but wonder if there wasn't a better way to do this from the start.

[he saunters over to a chair to sit down in. fiddles with a box out his pocket-- some painkillers.]
Uh. W..wait. There's screws in the bone. ...Do you have any idea how that's gonna work...?
no subject
He drops his hands. ]
I have no idea how that's going to work... They'll probably stay?

Did you hear something? ... Must have been the wind.Anyway: ] My powers just heal. They don't remove screws. And I can't teleport something unless I'm touching it.
[ This was stupid! They were about to do something so damn stupid... Finn grabbed the bottle and knocked back two of the pills. ]
no subject
[he clenches his free fist a few times.]
Alright. Alright. Give me your arm. Let's do this shit.
no subject
Just tell me when you're ready.
[ He would usually just begin but a part of him wonders if Archie might back out. ]
no subject
Go! Fuck! Go! Do it!
no subject
Yep. Yep. Yeah. This was stupid. ] NGH- Dammit! Archie!?
no subject
[he keeps his hand on finn-- he can't push the healing out any faster and there's already a little bit of sweat on his forehead from this small amount. idiot hasn't recovered from cass yet, either.]
Just-- let go, if you need to! OW, FUCK!
no subject
Is it even helping!?
no subject
[he shifts, trying to look at finn's arm.]
What's going on with you?!
no subject
[ He imagines that the bone is splitting and mending over and over. He really wants to stop imagining that. ]
We'll get the cast off later. We're fine. It's okay. We're o- ... Dammit! We're fine!
no subject
[he doesn't let go of finn first, though.]
no subject
We can still take the cast off after. You all right? How're the screws?
no subject
[to continue the theme of being fucking stupid, archie just whacks his cast off the counter. it... doesn't hurt?]
Well. I didn't scream, so that's a good sign... [he reaches out for finn's arm.] How is it?
no subject
It's- [ Finn flexes his arm, wiggles his fingers around. ] Yeah, it's okay. I'm okay.
no subject
[he gets right into it, taking the little electric saw and pressing it into his cast to get it off.]
Can I see under the sleeve? I'm surprised it didn't bleed through... I wonder if you'd get my scar...
no subject
No scar. Good job. Need help with that?
no subject
ugh.] Yeah. Can you do it? I feel a bit dizzy...

[he exhales a little, pained.]
...I trust you.
no subject
[ And the cast starts prying away! Finn pulls on it a little and puts the saw off to the side. ] How's that?
no subject
Gross! I gotta wash my arm... ugh! Hey, hey, look! [he turns it over, showing off all that gnarly scarring from where it was almost torn off.] Cool!
