She's used to damage. She's doing just fine. The throbbing in her head and chest is mild for a soldier like her, a leader, and she prides herself on being built like an ox. One who should have charged minutes ago. Maybe she's going soft. Maybe death's done something to her ambition. Carolina resents the idea, clenching her fists until her knuckles go white.
The infirmary bed is cold and cruel against her bare thighs. She sits a little straighter.
Artemy, the man with hands like Maine's, returns to offer her a vial. Its contents are thick and somewhat syrupy, like the false blood UNSC medics administer to solders. Carolina eyes it incredulously. Takes it between her forefinger and thumb and brings it to her nose to smell.
