"Hm? Ah..." He debated how to explain those nuances, but before he came to a solid decision she had gone on, and he frowned as he listened. "Hey..." he cooed, attempting to sound comforting. Man he knew these mood swings were several kinds of not her fault but they still kinda stabbed at his own mood..
Ah-- Starving he could do something about though. "You probably shouldn't be up but there should be ah..." He looked around a bit until he finally found the nurse call button and pressed it. "Someone'll be in here in a sec and they should be able to bring you some food." He offered what he hoped was a reassuring smile. "Or if it's between meal hours or something I'll have Luce run and get you something." The Gardevoir in question had taken a seat across the room after making his requested delivery, but now gave a little squeak. "Hm?"
Pulling the bag up, he reached in and pulled out a small bag of chips a hurried across the room to offer to Nik, then held the bag up enough to tell there seemed to be two other chip bags and three drinks of some kind inside. "Oh, nice thinking." He'd still see about getting her some proper food, but snacks were nice too especially if it took a while. He handed Nik the bag, then pulled one of the bags of chips and one sports drink out for himself before heading back to his seat.
"You want sour cream and cheddar or barbecue to tie you over?" he asked Mia.

The squeaky sound of the Gardevoir had Chezzers waking up a little, having decided to take a nap in the corner of the room still holding the snacks he'd brought in with Karla earlier, dipping his head up and feeling faintly ignored as he realized snack sharing was going on. Of course he couldn't give Mia ALL the stuff he and Karla had gotten from the store but...nyeh.
He'd carefully scooch over to the side of the bed no one was using, pushing only with his legs so his front half glided across the floor, plopping his chin on the edge of the hospital bed so he could be seen (as if his massive spikes didn't already give him away) and casually lifted his arms up to plop a variety of crisps and chocolate on some spare space on the bed, eyeing Mia with a playful glare that just brought out a chuckle from the blonde before Chezzer's own face brightened, the thumping behind him making it clear enough his smaller tail was wagging away.
"Well you both make amazing offers but I was hoping for something more filling...ah well." She leaned over to pet the Chesnaught's dome before shifting back to Nik, feeling she'd handle potato chips better than chocolate and sweets right now. "Barbecue. Normally a sour cream but I think I'll...manage..."
She had the packet in her hand now and made a quick realization that thankfully came with a quick solution. Pinching one side in her fingers she gripped the other side of the bag with her teeth as she tried to open it, forgetting how easily they tended to open for a second and with a messy 'pop' the contents of the chip blag exploded over her bed.
".." Still hodling half the chip bag in her mouth, Mia just dipped her head forward and snickered loudly at the chips and crumbs now covering her, Chezzers inching out his tongue to try and get one without getting up off his bum. "Er...you mind opening one of these Nik?" She pulled another pack from the pile Chezzers provided, smirking brightly and still giggling as she eased some of the launched chips out of her hair.

Pfff oh hello there Chezzers, lovely to see you too. What a good boy, ahaha.
Nik only meant to set the bag down for a second to readjust things, not hand it to Mia in her state. But when she started trying to open it, he reached for about half a second with and "I--" before deciding against it. Actually? If she wanted to try to open them like that....
And there it was! Nik snorted and faded into a brief fit of giggles as chips covered her. "Y-" Ah where was his breath? "Yeah one sec." Oh he should feel worse for laughing at her but he swore it wasn't 'haha you've got one arm' but 'what possessed you to think this was a good idea', and the fact that that sort of impulsive effort was all but typical of her. She was just... so fucking cute he could not.
...And of course the nurse would walk into this scene, making Nik struggle with all he had to avoid laughing all over again and even harder. "...Can I help you?"
"Sh--she wanted some food," he managed to get out, and she nodded and headed right off to do that.
Upon settling, he'd take a few moments to catch his breath as he started unwrapping a few snacks and helping Mia eat (as well as stealing a bit occasionally). "Might have to let folks help you a bit more until you get that prosthetic, huh?" He'd say 'or get used to one arm' but nah. Surely she could get something soon. "Speaking of, you should be able to ride your bike fine once you get one, too," he assured her. ... Then, unable to resist, he offered her a wink and added, "Though I can think of something you can ride even without one~"

With the nurse walking in Mia's own giggles seemed to hike back up and burst into another fit. Why did her seeing this make it funnier? She didn't know but it was a fact that it did, snickering and giggling as Nik managed to have the sense to take a breath and actually managed to tell her what she was called for, practically beaming by the time she caught her breath again, watching Nik open another pack and feeding her one of the chips. She briefly wanted to snatch the bag and say she could do it herself before recalling she probably would need the nurse to loosen this thing to even reach her mouth. "Thanks bud."
She'd much on a few chips as he spoke, the assurance she could still ride her bikes definitely reassuring her, though the comment to follow has her gasping in fake appall. "Nik how dare you." She dipped her head towards Chezzers, the Chesnaught lifting his head a little as he realized the focus was on him. "You know full well I can't cover BOTH his ears right now. Watch yourself." The cheerful smirk turned into a deadpan stare at his trainer for a moment before he leaned up to just lightly poke her between the eyes, earning another giggle from both of them.
"Nah though...I'm sure I'll be fine. One of my god-fathers has a prosphetic from a mine accident actually. Pretty old model but apparently works rather well...wonder if they can make one sturdy enough for me to keep punching shit with eh?"

What? What was she-- PFFFFFttt. Dammit Mia he just calmed down. "Aaaah, forgive this grave transgression, milady," he feigned dramatically in response before snickering. "Mm. You know, I feel like the question there isn't 'sturdy enough for punching' so much as 'sturdy enough for you'," he only half-teased. Mmm. "Least the tech is out there, though, and most people even think they look cool, so like. If you have to get an injury this severe, may as well be one with an aesthetic solution, huh?" Heh. He did wonder if such prosthetics would be quite as popular in that regard without a particular anime, but hey, it sort of worked out well for people who needed them, yeah? ... "Oh! That actually kinda reminds me." Via a loose series of connected thoughts but it worked. "I've actually got a few new scars. Or will when this heals." He slightly smirked and his eyes flashed briefly to his side on the word 'this. Pulling down his shirt collar a bit, he'd partially reveal the slash marks on the upper left side of his chest and shoulder. "These aren't as aesthetic but came from that hellacious attempt at a camping trip. Was actually bandaged up from that when I ported in to steal a kiss that day~" He gave her a brief wink as he released his shirt, clearly focusing more on the kiss part than the injury just now, though he did somber up just a bit before adding, "Didn't want you to worry right before my trip and meant to tell you as soon as I got back but.." He looked around the hospital as if to say 'welp'. "But this--!" he was quick to move on. He briefly pulled up his right sleeve to show a lot of discolored scabbing for just a second or two, then let it fall back into place as he grabbed his phone. "Is a lot a cooler scar." He pulled up a picture of the new tattoo freshly done on his shoulder. "Storm's actually done all my tats, and I designed some sleeves for Orion to help cover his scars, so I figured if I got her to teach me I could do those myself, and.. what better way to learn, huh? ...You can probably tell my work from hers in some places--" indeed, a few of the lines were a bit wibbly and too thick in places if one was looking for it-- "but I did part of it myself to practice." ... That was... probably a lot to info dump but he got excited whoops.

"You're damn right its a transgression. I shouldn't have my dear, loyal Chezzers sullied by your foul tongue sir Laska!~" She was giggling enough between her words as she briefly folded her arms, eyes flicking across to Nik again as he mentioned the prosthetic aesthetics...that was fun to say in her head. Prosphetic Aesthetic Prosphetic Aesthetic hahaha!~ Ah...but yeah...she'd need to get a strong one but the tech was there. Might be a bit of a custom job on the durability and reinforcement but- "There'll be someone who can make what I need...heck god knows we've got enough nerds up top to do the sciency stuff, and I'm fairly certain someone down here knows enough about metal work to make it hardy enough for yours truly."
As Nik went on with his memory, Mia's eyes shifted to one of brief alarm and disbelief as he showed her his scars, leaning forward to try and get a better view. He was lucky he mentioned the kiss otherwise there wouldn't have been a faint smile mixed in with her worry. "I...really!? You were hurt this bad!? What did something like that!? I..." She couldn't even really maintain an angry face...a part of her was dissapointed or angry or...maybe just hurt he didn't tell her but...a part of her asked 'what right do we have to be angry' but...even if it was something she could hide like a scar, Mia wouldn't have hid the fact she'd gotten so hurt. Really if it wasn't for the kiss mention keeping things light in her head she would have been genuinely upset...
Instead though - "Arceus man, you take the camping trip from hell and then go off into a warzone with barely any warning...Then again when you weren't looking I lost my arm so I guess we're even. Or-" She lifted up her stump, flicking her eyes to it then back to Nik. "You're even, I'm pretty lop sided if we're honest.~"
With the mention of the tattoos she may have winced just a little. She was just generally not a fan of those things but, hey, the one he showed looked okay? And Orion did sound like the type to suit tattoos. Her skin was just never something she wanted to tamper with like that. Heck she hated scars to the point she was gonna see what she could do about some skin grafts to cover them up once she was recovered. Vestas were nice though...getting off track Mia. Er... "Ya know...its not skin but I'm gonna have a pretty plain looking hunk of metal strapped to me when i recover...any chance you'd wanna give it a paint job?"

... "Er ah... The Woods?" would be his initial answer to the question of what injured him, heh. He may have... subtly been hoping she'd be too high to be too bothered now that he was thinking about it? Or if that wasn't subconsciously part of his reasoning for telling her it retroactively was now, heh.
Ehhh, he didn't really feel like 'was completely honest with less than idea timing' was really even with... well he guessed it depended how this happened. If she was doing something stupid then the scale was tipped in his favor; if she was a pure victim to an accident he guessed even just the in his mind minor offense was still more th--
OKAY BUT. PFHAHAHA? Okay he didn't even care how 'even' it was, she trumped all his thoughts with that. Arceus he was a terrible person for laughing at her but.
When she got to her idea, though, all trace of humor faded away. His breathing became stiffer, his eyes wider, and he leaned in slightly shaking with excitement. "Mia. Yesssssssssssss," he half whispered. "Holy shit yes that sounds amazing. I'm way more confident with a paintbrush and we could redo it as much as you wanted and fffffffffffffffff PLEASE." He should not have been this excited. "We could do intricate tribal patterns one month, a mural of your epic conquests the next. Punching out a Giratina, maybe. Fuck your alleged fighting immunity, Mia Kearney's fist is just that strong~" He snickered, far too pleased.
"...Oh! See now I regret not telling you sooner because you should be proud of me. The Ursaring that gave me the new scars? Yeah, I literally punched it in the face~" That felt more like a terrifying necessity at the time, but this far past it he could go 'wow I was a badass for a minute' hehehe.

Chezzers actually backed off from the bed a little as Nik burst into his little bit of laughter, not to mention the excitement about painting Mia's new arm that followed. He'd briefly duck his head down to rest in the shade under the bed, but his thick yet noodly arm would reach up and blindly pat at the bed till it found a chocolate bar to take down with him.
Mia meanwhile was struggling to even breathe herself, Nik's reaction more funny than anything right now and covering her mouth to try and calm herself down. She did genuinely like the idea but he went way more gungho than she thought he would. "Dude I meant like, you can paint it gold for me or something but..." She sighed and shook her head with a smirk. "Ya know what, honestly if you think you'll have a good time with it..yeah. That sounds great. Oh oh!" The mention of tribal tattoos had her thinking and she held a wide smirk. "One time we need to do a Mini Mia Tattoo! Like Maoi had in Moana!" She was getting way more into this than she thought she would. Was it just the fact it wouldn't need to be permanent? Probably...
Then, the ursaring. Mia was briefly stunned but a brief jolt of backlogged fear and worry was quickly overpowered by pride. "An Ursaring!? Holy shit Nik! You better have got it right in the nose for doin' that to ya!" She was grinning wide, her weird unspoken rivalry with those bear pokemon oddly satisfied through Nik. "Dude that sounds like one hell of a camping trip you were on, for better or worse!~ How on earth did that even happen? Didn't you have your pokemon?"

Fuck yes they'd do a Mini Mia. And every other tat design she could come up with~
He laughed weakly and answered, "Ah.. think it might've been the jaw but it's kind of fuzzy now." ..His memory, not the bear, but also the bear, hehehe...
He shifted uncomfortably as she asked for details, though. "I had Jasna. I was supposed to be meeting dad but he got sick and didn't show, and I'd left almost everything at the local ranger station so we could be super ~All Natural~, and.. Ahaha?? I fucking regretted it." He blinked a few times, not realizing how moist his eyes were getting. "I've got no sense of direction so we got lost, and things kept attacking Jas and. The Ursaring had her pinned down so I didn't really-..." He swallowed hard, then tried to force a smile. "Then despite all my efforts, a Noivern nearly snatched her up and-- she only barely got free and got dropped from about fifty feet." He shuddered. "One leg's already better now but the other's still gonna be a few weeks if not months..."

Even with the uplifting tone Nik had originally taken, Mia was quickly dipping again as he went on to describe the serious nature of the trip in more detail, briefly lifting her stump arm to rub the back of her neck before realizing she'd have to work on that nervous reflex in the days to come. Staring off into space for about 2 seconds at how stupid she felt for giving into that reflective impulse and shifting her gaze back to Nik...did he say fifteen feet? A pokemon could survive that ri-oh. Oh fifty. Yeesh. She would sing the praises of fighting types but that musta been rough...not even a pokecenter was fixing her here?
"I...geeze....fuck Nik how..." She didn't even know what she would have asked if she managed to finish her sentence. A tiny part of her was upset she was only hearing about this now when...when....she couldn't help but chuckle as the words came to mind, looking back over Nik, some clear worry still in her own eyes but...god if she didn't know any better he'd chosen to tell her about this now for a reason.
"Are you just telling me this now cause you know you aren't the one who'll be getting all the sympathy pats for the next few weeks. This is like a reverse 'stealing my thunder'. You chose right now to tell me because my thunder is too big to be stolen here." She knew that probably sounded like gibberish but...seriously she had no real sense of scale in her head here. Jasna was hurt and so had Nik been, and she was so worried about that but right now, of all times, and not at all meant in a bad way, she kinda had all the sympathy cards here...some of which were going to be literal as her bed side table when she got home would probably be filled with half-joking get well soon cards.
"I...geeze Nik you have like...either the worst or best timing to tell me shit you know that?" This plus the stuff he'd managed to spill when she finally agreed to go out with him for the first time...Arceus at least he was starting to spill his secrets sooner and sooner. "...pokemon heal up better then we do though...I'm sure she'll be fine..." She smirked and lightly nudged over towards him with his elbow. "Either that or you'll have two cyborg girlfriends soon." She didn't even manage a full smirk, realizing how bad that comment may have been..
Fairly mellowed out though, she let out a long breath, glancing to the doorway and noticing the nurse hadn't gotten anything yet. They probably needed to cook it of course...she glanced about the bed, spotting chezzers shell spokes sticking up from where he'd tried to crawl under but only managed to get his head and arms in there, chuckling just a tad before she scooted up a little, leaving the side her arm was strapped to mainly open and lightly patting it. It was a tight fit but... "Mind getting up here...?"

He... what?? Nik tried to wrap his head around the reverse thunder stealing logic and? thought he might kind of get it but it was also so ridiculous he couldn't help but laugh awkwardly and think he must be interpreting it wrong. Maybe this was just high Mia brain not wording herself the best or tired Nik brain not interpreting what should have been totally clear and simple properly or some mix of both, but damn if it wasn't funny regardless.
The cyborg girlfriends line had him immediately cease laughter and fluster instead. Ffffaoaiowfioaw Mia. He sputtered a bit as he tried to manage some semblance of a comeback but he had nothing. Blurgh.
As she scooted, though, he stopped and blinked, briefly wondering if she meant him. But Chezzers wasn't moving and she clearly wouldn't mean Lucy and-- o-oh no, he was suddenly emotional; it was hitting him all at once how much he missed her?? He squeezed into the bed next to her and, careful to make sure he wasn't exacerbating any wounds, wrapped an arm around her and laid his head against her. "I love you..." he whimpered. He wanted to kiss her but didn't even wanna move to do that. "I missed you so much..."
...Of course, now the nurse would walk in with a cart for Mia's food. "..S-sir?"
"Can't move."
"Sir she's--"
"Tell the docs you'll have to surgically remove me."
The nurse just sighed and rolled her eyes at his insistence. "Don't stay long." Nik just let out a small uncertain whine.

With Nik moving up onto the bed with her, Mia was just...happy. It took her a sec to shift right what with her arm still bound to the side of the bed, but she managed to get just enough wiggle room so she could bring her hand up into the back of Nik's head and lightly grasp at his hair, a warm blush on her cheeks as she shifted her face just enough to lightly kiss his lips, closing her eyes and just enjoying the extra warmth his body provided in the mildly chilly hospital, humming into his cheek as her fingers brushed through his hair.
"I missed you too...sorry I was an ass...~"
She slipped in just one more brief kiss before the nurse came in, almost about to grumble at her if it wasn't for the fact she came with food. A light chuckle managed to escape her at Nik's words though, and as they whined, she just held them tighter against herself, pulling their face down to rest their cheek against her chest. "Sorry Nurse, you're gonna have to tell the doc about this little tumor. They've been growing on be for about a year know. Thankfully they be-mine~" He kissed through his hair + hat should he be wearing one, chuckling as she feigned a mistake and glanced up at the nurse. "Sorry. Benine.~"
The nurse rolled her eyes and walked over, undoing Mia's strap to her surprise. "Behave you two." She then went and closed the door behind her, leaving a warning for them to not share the bed for too long but allowing them a bit of privacy, which Mia immediately used to hold Nik even tighter, turning her body into his and letting out a loving growling sound as she nuzzled around his face, maybe getting a little more attatched than he was as, even though it caused some light pain from all the stitches she had, she just held him as tight as she could, hooking a leg over his and just trying to practically wrap herself around him with a giddy smile.
"I love you...~"

NIK COULD NOT HANDLE THAT PUN??? He didn't even laugh. He just lay there with a stunned smile, vaguely holding his breath to keep from exploding and reimploding out of existence from the strength of that-- No, no okay he just went straight from that to tearing up and shoulders shaking in the manners of 'crying laughing' and 'laughing so hard he couldn't breathe'. Fuck Mia.
He wasn't sure he even noticed the nurse was gone until after the fact, but as Mia started trying to entangle herself on him he finally found a source of grounding. The more protective parts of him wanted to tell her not to do that, but the rest was too damn giddy as he clung back tight and smothered her in enough kisses that he lost count, not that his brain was working at even half capacity right now because be-mine but still.
"I... loooove... yooouuu...." he finally said back, quiet for emphasis. Another flurry of kisses followed. And.. he would... help her remember to eat her lunch. Eventually. He swore. Lucy quit looking at him like that.
