[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

In its current form, Ditto isn't acting distrustful at all! He pats Nathan on the shoulder quite humanly, like a hero doing his duty, citizen!

Stabilize: (1)(1)(1)(4)(6)

Nathan's medicinal attempts have a disastrous start, with hot blood initially gushing from the Slash wound. Finally he gets it under control, so it's not getting any worse.

Lethal damage can only be cured over time in a hospital setting. Stabilizing it just prevents it from getting worse.

That's incredibly reassuring.

...and definitely helps a ton when he almost screws up treating Swiftfire's Slash wounds and nearly has a panic attack.  Ditto's protective presence is about all that's keeping him calm enough to keep him from running down the tunnel himself in an effort to find Ralts ASAP.

...at least it's not getting worse...he doesn't have enough supplies to spare on treating this properly, though...

...that's done, though...now to deal with that...other issue.

The bugs.

Specifically, that Leavanny.

...it would be so...easy to finish it off in retaliation...

...

...he can't help but think back to his conversation with Valder, though...

...

...and looking at Ditto, who's calmed down since the immediate threat has been dealt with...

...

...no, he won't kill Leavanny.

...that leaves the matter of Swadloon...he could...catch it...try to get it away from that vicious slasher that seems to have been a bad influence on it...

...

"...Ditto...do you think they were doing this of their own accord? Or is this...mad, frenzied rush...making them act funny?  I...need a second opinion...and you probably have a better idea of what's going on than I do..."

Ditto points to his nose, then to Leavanny/Swadloon. He bares his canines.
