[As he stares down at her hands Kotetsu gives a visible wince just at the thought of the pain she's in and already ideas go through his head on how to take care of the injuries on his own until she speaks up. He doesn't exactly believe for one second that she's not in as much pain as she says she is but he understands this act more than anyone and so he just nods, paying attention to the directions she gives.]
All right, don't move and just stay here a second. I'll be right back.
[Quickly standing, Kotetsu heads into the aforementioned room and begins his search for the first aid kit. Unfortunately it's very likely that whatever messy state the room is in now is just going to get worse because that's just what happens when Kotetsu is allowed access to a room he's never been in before, but adding a mess to a mess is never really an issue for him. It takes him a good minute or so and there's a lot of fumbling and occasional cursing but eventually he manages to rush back to Rei's side with the first aid kit and sets it down on the ground, opening it up and retrieving the pair of tweezers.
Carefully taking one of her hands in his own he gives her an intent, focused look, keeping his voice serious.]
I'm sorry but I'm gonna rush through this a little. Last thing we need is another one of those aftershocks hitting while I'm taking my time. [Offering her a small reassuring smile.] I'd say you could tell me to stop if it hurts too much but I've got a feeling you wouldn't say a single thing about it even if I made you.
