Sage sighed and reached for everything that she was handing him, taking the pills easily and then downing the rest of the water. He was surprisingly thirsty....then he realized he was probably going to have to work at drinking more, since the amount of skin he'd lost was probably not helping to keep him hydrated, and he hadn't eaten or dranken more than today's breakfast in the past few days. He nodded in response to her comment about not waiting though, and then shrugged. "I fell asleep again," he admitted. "Woke up like this." Then he was yawning again though, and slumping tiredly against Mari as he drifted off again, thanks to the pills immediately taking affect.

Mari looked at Sage after a moment, shaking her head. "You woke up like this, and it was bad enough for you to try and get your own meds. It was bad enough for you to spill them all over the floor, so let's not let it get worse, hm?" She asked once the boy took everything, and went to go and put everything back. It was just after lunchtime. She didn't want to leave them hungry. Sage was pretty much asleep again, though... well, Silas had started to shift, at least. "Hey hun, you hungry? What'd you say we go make some food?" She asked, to which the little boy grinned and crawled out of bed before following her along.

Sage sighed and nodded, taking the pills when she handed them to him and then downing more water when she handed him that. "I suppose so," he hummed, a yawn breaking his sentence after a moment. He sort of just nodded sleepily on response to her, but he was really already asleep. He felt her lift Silas off of him, since he felt his warmth move off his chest, and he shifted slightly to curl up around Lizzie as best he could, without hurting himself too much. He stayed like that for a while...though, when he woke up a few hours later, he was definitely very hungry. He was surprised...though, the pain meds probably made him feel much better than he really did.

Mari and Silas wandered down to the kitchen... they fixed up a little macaroni, since it was easy to stomach, before waddling back to the ward. Silas jumped up onto the bed with his plate and ate away happily, while Mari gently woke Sage and put the tray of food on his lap. She scooped up Liz to feed her, too, but the girl did seem a bit... drowsy, and a bit grumpy that she'd been woken up. She smiled down at her, and gently ticked her stomach before going to sit in the corner and seeing if she'd take to some apple sauce... she'd been able to stomach some baby food, but she definitely preferred the apple sauce.

Sage stirred slightly when Mari first woke him, and tried to flop an arm over his face and go back to sleep, though upon her insistence, he dragged himself up enough to take the plate in his lap. Once he started eating, he realized how hungry he was....not that it was surprising since he hadn't gotten anything in the cell he'd been in, but still. He just hadn't felt well enough to eat. Until he actually started to do it, of course. He ate it all rather quickly, and then settled back down to watch Lizzie and Mari interact, best he could

Mari looked up at Sage once he'd all fished up. She hoped he'd liked it at least... she hoped that he was starting to feel a little bit himself. He still had a while until he could actually do anything, though. "How you feeling hun?" She asked with a gentle smile. Liz was resting on her lap now, kind of nodding back off to sleep... she always seemed to go straight to sleep once she'd eaten. It was really very cute. "Well enough that if I run you a bath you'll go and sit in it for a while, maybe?" She asked with a small hum.

He hummed in thought before shrugging at her comment. "Drugged," he chuckled. And he was....petwren the pain meds and whatever else he had to take, his feeling of not hurting was...well, fake. Then he grunted and made the move to get up. "Might as well while the meds are strong," he sighed, wincing slightly as he moved to actually get on his feet but then he sort of just shrugged it off and tottered over to the bathroom somewhat sleepily.

Mari took everything off him and of course the kids when they stood up, and settled them back down before wandering into the bathroom behind him... she sat him down in the chair in the corner before turning the tap on, making sure it was a comfortable temperature before getting him some fresh clothes and nee bandages. She hated the idea of fixing all the bandages... she knew it was going to hurt. She wandered back over before quickly helping his shirt off over his head. She just kind of stared at the wounds for a few moments before cocking her head at him. "Are you happy for me to take these off?" She asked quietly.

Sage had sort of wandered into the bathroom ahead of her, though by then he was completely worn out and practically collapsed on the chair she gave him. He watched her bustle around as best he could for a while, and when she came over to help him get his clothes off, it took longer than expected. It involves quite a lot of cursing and wriggling on his part, and probably a lot of patience on her part. He shrugged slightly at her comment, reaching over to take the sling off so he could keep it dry. "well, it may as well happen while I'm drugged up," he muttered. It had to happen at some point...and he supposed it would be much easier on them both if they did it while the pain meds were going through his body full force.

Mari nodded to him before starting to gently strip the first few layers of bandages off... she could see the sort of yellow that was seeping through them, which made her tomach churn, but continued on until it snagged on his skin... it'd hurt, no doubt. But they weren't going to heal like that. Soon enough, after a rather long and painful endeavour, they'd gotten Sage settled down in the bath, and she pulled a chair over to sit next to him to help wash his hair and the likes if need be.
