[ Despite all of his worries, Hyunki allowed Adder to sleep, and as soon as he was under, there was little Hyunki could do to wake him up. So he took care of Adder, quietly, gently, carrying him from the bathroom to the bed, getting him set up, and worrying extensively as he still used his powers regularly to help Adder knit himself back together.
Usually, he would be fine, by now. He wouldn't need so much time to recuperate. But they weren't under normal circumstances. For days and nights, Hyunki curled up by Adder's side, a hand on his chest just to feel the steady rise and fall, his own heart feeling torn apart as worries and fears ate at him. He didn't sleep, instead found himself reading his latest book out loud, in case Adder could hear him, would find it soothing in his dreams.
He was just taking a little break for himself when Adder woke up. He'd been splashing water over his face after brushing his teeth when he heard the bed creak, and Hyunki jumped out of the bathroom to see Adder sitting up. He rushed over, hands reaching out. ]
Don't - overexert yourself.
[ Adder was human. That explains - well, that explained so much. Hyunki sat down, swallowed hard. To think Adder this fragile was. Well, it was impossible, truly. ]

Is it - permanent?
