I hope this wasn't an inconvenience when there are so many children that need your care."
At least she would be out of here shortly?
River chuckled as he tossed the used antiseptic cloth aside, and began treating Rose's wound.
"I am actually surprised he hasn't barged in yet," he said taking a glance at the double doors of the Hospital Wing. He'd seen how worked up Gaston can be, and he thought a small bite would've sent the man flying across their shared corridor.
With the wound instantly healed, River wiped up the excess essence off her foot and placed Rose's sock and shoe back.
"Ah, don't mention it. It's my job to see that everyone is in tip-top shape...including you two." he said giving both of his colleagues a warm smile.
"Oh and before I let you go, you have to drink this...just in case the 1% of infection found its way to your system." he added, offering Rose a phial of cleansing potion.

Her best friend make you face her wrath.’’ She laughed softly. Obviously River was referring to Gaston but Kay couldn’t help making a little joke. Maybe it was just to make herself feel better.
Wait, there was still a chance of infection? Kay’s expression turned to one of shock but perhaps that wasn’t best right now. She didn’t want to make Rose worry more than what she was probably worrying now. “No, she’s not a stray. She’s well taken care of thanks to Jordan.’’
"Kay...relaaax." River gave her a good natured chuckle in return just to put his colleague at ease. He understood the initial panic that Kay got, considering that she'd been witness to the accident.
River nodded his head in understanding as he sat on the other bed and waited for Rose to finish her potion.
"That's a relief. Stray crups need time to adjust their diets and to take cleansing potions after adoption. It's a good thing your crup is under Jordan's care. At least we know it's being fed with clean food and such." he said, nodding in relief.
"You still have to take all precautions, Rose. Not that I doubt Jordan, but I would like your bases to be covered. A bite is a bite, after all." he continued giving both women a small lecture.
