... Normally, a stranger would introduce himself first.

[ It's almost instinctive to respond dryly, though her voice is raspy from disuse. Still, from the way he speaks, he had been the one to treat her to this extent, and Primrose harbors no delusion that she would have survived if she had been left where she'd fallen. So she concedes, with a sigh. ]

Primrose.

[banzais]

Oh, that's right...

[well he'll at least go to get the tray of food that he brought along - soup and bread, nothing fancy, but at least hearty enough - and then approach her]

Then it is nice to meet you, Primrose. I am Higekiri... I think.

[femmefinale]

... You think? I hadn't known a person could possess such doubt over their own name.

[ She'll reach gingerly behind her to prop herself up with pillows. Feeling this weak isn't... ideal, but. She's still breathing. ]

[banzais]

Mm, I suppose you could say that I've been called many things? There's quite a few names to pick from but... that one sounds right.

[perhaps he's being just a little bit too honest at this point]

Ah - do you need help? If my hands are free, I could fix things up a bit to your liking...

[he will offer her the tray of food? he's at least pretty used to service apparently]

[femmefinale]

I'm... fine. [ And stubborn, but she'll at least reach out to take the tray. ]

You're the one who treated me? ... Why?

[banzais]

Do you believe there's always a reason needed to save a life?

[admittedly he does have an answer -

but all the same, he's curious why she immediately jumps to needing a 'why'

still, he'll move to help adjust her pillows so that it's comfortable for her to sit up and eat]

[femmefinale]

For most people? Yes.

[ We can't all be Alfyn or Ophilia. ]
