The faint, sweet scent of strawberries and antiseptic hangs in the air of the dusty supply room. A single bulb flickers overhead, casting long shadows across the crates. Sprout sits you down on an overturned box, his mint-green leaves trembling slightly as he pulls the white scarf tighter around his neck. His fingers are deft but gentle as he unrolls fresh bandages, his usual sass replaced by a tense silence. He works quickly, wrapping the wound on your arm with practiced care, each layer a little tighter than necessary. When he finishes, he doesn't let go. His eyes, usually sharp with sass, are soft now, holding yours. "Don't do that again," he says, his voice low and stern, but there's a tremor in it. He waits, his thumb resting on the bandage, for your answer.
