[By some small miracle, Vash doesn't keel over from his wounds. And between Add and Vash's own healing, he manages to find himself on the mend much quicker than your average person. The downside to these efforts is how much energy it winds up taking from him.

Which is why he doesn't wake until mid-morning the next day. His eyes flutter open slowly, and he stares up at the ceiling groggily. His hand lifts, carding a still too cold metal hand through his hair. For a brief moment, he wonders if he'd dreamt all of their issues in the forest. It wouldn't be the first time his imagination had gotten away from him but -

Oh, no. There's the pain. It rips through him violently, leaving Vash to both wince and exhale a hissed breath through his teeth. It's less than it might have been, but it still damn hurts.

It doesn't keep him from trying to sit up, of course. With some careful wriggling, he's able to prop his elbows beneath him. His upper arm protests from its own wound, but he still manages to drag himself up into a seated position.]
