[Dave is free to pull both bodies out, as neither of them will be waking up and walking out to make his job easier.

In Handsome Jack's case, the cause behind his incapicatation is obvious - most of his entire head has been blown off. Blood, bits of skull, and brain matter splatter the wall and electronics behind where he was slumped. Both of his legs are severely burnt, and his robot arm is missing.

A few feet away from him, Yuno Gasai seems to be in slightly better condition. Her legs and arms also have burns, though they're less severe than Jack's. She's very pale, but aside from the burns, she doesn't appear to have any other visible wounds.]

[parodeity]

[ okay well fuck looking at jack's body more it clearly can't be saved. HE'LL JUST. LEAVE THAT ONE IN THERE AND TAKE THE OTHER ONE OUT.

he'll focus on yuno: does she have a pulse? ]

[al2955]

[It's weak and fluttering dangerously, but Yuno does indeed have a pulse.]

[parodeity]

[ all right. he's going to take her to the med bay as fast as possible (...for dave strider) and just abandon jack's corpse there if that's ok??? where he can hopefully find at least something to help treat burns and/or help her out. he's not a terrible battlefield medic?

SORRY JACK BUT HE CAN'T FIX A HEAD BEING BLOWN OFF, burns and shit he can do something about ]

[al2955]

[With his flight, Dave probably won't have much trouble transporting Yuno to the medbay.

Which is lucky for him, because he'll notice immediately when he tries to head downstairs that the elevator is gone and the doors open to an empty shaft.]

[parodeity]

[ OF COURSE THE ELEVATOR IS GONE, WHY WOULDN'T IT BE GONE. whatever he's going to IGNORE THAT and fly down and get her to the medbay and just. battlefield medic at her.

i guess you can tell me how much luck he has HE WILL PROBABLY BOTHER TO INFORM PEOPLE OF JACK/YUNO WHEN HE'S SURE SHE'S GONNA LIVE or die.

don't die? ]

[bloodteller]

[ fucking dies? she's dead. she's dead completly.

actually no, by the time dave gets yuno into the medbay, she's starting to stir. it isn't until she's laid... wherever he was gonna shove her that she raises a hand and opens her eyes.

except this clearly isn't the ai core and dave is pretty obviously not jack also her entire body hurts?? yuno shoots up onto her elbows without. any regard for her stupid injuries WHO CARES ]

Wh... How did-- You're okay! Jack, whe--

[ maybe she shouldn't have sat up so fast because she definitely wants to vomit now ]

[parodeity]

[ yeah ok he will just press her back down to the bed. you're not going anywhere, yuno. ]

Nope. Moving is for people who aren't injured, you don't get that privilege back until we've treated your burns and shit.

[ he. does not answer the question about jack off the bat. ]

[bloodteller]

[ you're not either of her parents they're both deeeead you can't control her

which is to say she's definitely trying to sit up but it's a pretty weak fight. ]

I can walk, it's fine, don't I look fine?

[ not at all, actually? and she knows that. her legs are signed pretty bad and her other arm isn't doing too hot either (haha), but it's definitely not as bad as it could be, it's probably easy to deduce she tried to shield herself. ]

[parodeity]

[ he just keeps pressing down on her shoulder with one hand. he's not going to argue the point just. keep her seated. ]

You're letting me bandage you up before we do anything else. Jack's not alive. You are. I'm prioritizing that still being a thing.

[ he's not sure how to. break it gently. so. ]

I'm actually not sure how the fuck everyone else is, but you? You need medical attention.

[bloodteller]

[ her response is to immediately grab his arm with. the arm that didn't get burned today. great. that's all her limbs isn't it. ]

Dave. [ there's no high-pitched anime bs here, just normal pitched yuno. ]

Are you sure?

[ about jack, that is. ]

[parodeity]

His head was kinda blown up.

[ so. he's pretty fucking sure. ]

You had a pulse. So I grabbed you and got down here.

[ he'll just untangle her hand from his arm so he can start, like, actively treating her burns and such with medical supplies. ]

[bloodteller]

[ just to let it got faster, yuno won't complain or fight back as he does that.

the second the last strip of bandage is on though: ]

There's an injectable pain killer in the cabinet across from you. Get a syringe and shoot me up. You didn't check his pulse, right? What if he's alive? We can't leave him!

[parodeity]

Yuno. Most of his head was blown off. Brains on the wall and everything?

[ like, he's still going to get pain killer for her, but. ]

You're not walking around, btw. If we have to go back up, you're piggybacking.

[bloodteller]

[ on one hand, dave would never lie to her. she's sure of that. on the other-- ]

When you saw me, you immediately prioritized me, right? So you didn't-- There's no way. He can't die. He didn't. He didn't leave me, there's no way.

[ ... it dawns on her then that dave's a clear entirely because. they have jim. and then they killed elizabeth when she was free. jack left, what if... ]

Jack... Elizabeth... You need to-- I can't lose you-- You can't leave me, I'm staying with you, I am not letting you go.

[parodeity]

[ yes he prioritized yuno and part of the reason was JACK BEING MOSTLY HEADLESS so... ]

Right, because piggyback. You're not walking anywhere? That's dumb. Also the elevator wasn't coming when I was trying to call it so you can't get to the top floor without me anyway.

[bloodteller]

No! [ so much for COOPERATING BECAUSE yuno sits up to try and toss herself.... at him.... sorry ]

What if you're next? I'm not letting them take you from me! You're not leaving me, period !

[parodeity]

[ HE'S SO CONFUSED ]

I wasn't going to? We're obviously sticking together, c'mon.

[bloodteller]

Dorian is fucking reworking these stupid groups, I'm staying with you, they don't need me--

[ ... she moves like she's about to stand but that's. dumb. fuck. she clearly should have thought about this more. ]

[parodeity]

They clearly don't work anyway.

[ that's super dumb but ok clearly she isn't going to stay put. dave just catches her and then shifts her so she can hang off his back? though he'll keep a hold on her legs anyway in traditional piggyback style so she's secured. ]

I guess we should maybe pretend to be halfway competent and investigate stuff.

[bloodteller]

...Sorry.

[ she'll allow it and make sure her grip is secure, but she does sound more than a little displeased at. everything? why is she burned. dave shouldn't have to lug her around, he should be able to move freely. ]

I'll go wherever you go, hot stuff.

[ like, at least it's dave and not. someone she hates. wait, does she hate anyone here, now. SHIT. THIS IS THE WORST REALIZATION ]

[parodeity]

For what?

[ she barely weighs anything and it's not like he minds carrying someone if it means they won't hurt themselves further. ]

It's not like you asked to get blown up or whatever.

[bloodteller]

If I got blown up, I'd be dead.

[ look!!! somehow this is something she could have stopped!! she's pretty sure SHE FUCKED UP HERE!! ]

You brought me up there to begin with, and -- Never mind. [ he'll argue against it anyway, ugh... why is dave actually a good person..... ] Thanks for the lift. I'll make you breakfast. [ ... if she can stand tomorrow. ]

[parodeity]

It's not your fault someone blew you up.

[ like. probably? he's pretty sure. ]

Don't worry about taking care of me for now, you're the one who's hurt...just focus on resting up, okay?

[bloodteller]

I didn't get blown up. I got burned. If there's anything those dumb autopsies have shown us, there's a really pedantic difference.

[ that's probably a joke but she's really agitated ]

Easier said than done... but I'll try, if you want me to.
