"Blah blah blah" Victoria rolled her eyes and tilt her head from side to side as the woman continued to talk. She was very much aware of how childish it was, but her patience was thin and it was all she could do to keep herself from throwing a tantrum. It was very possible for her to throw a fit, but she wasn't a stupid woman and understood that throwing one here wasn't going to get her anywhere. When the woman finally quit with the sarcastic and biting remarks Victoria sighed and watched her from the corner of her eye. Some people do strange things when they are scared, it would appear that this one got really fucking nasty. At least she was being quiet for now.
"Hmm...towel.." Towels were certainly the most useful thing in the universe, or so they say. It was a little damp from her fall in the swamp, her her pack seemed to protect the contents somehow. Perhaps it was coated with something? Aw hell, who cares, as long as the items inside were safe. Before she could really go searching though her pack the other person began to stir. Eyes flickered up to see what the man was up to. His lips were red with blood, and she found herself watching him blankly as he moved his arms behind his body. Before her mind could register what he was doing he yanked at the arrow stuck in his back. Victoria's head jerked back, startled and surprised that he would even do such a foolish thing.
"Wh- what are you doing?!" Immediately she rushed to his side, with towel in hand she pressed it against his wound in an attempt to stop the bleeding. She knew enough first aid to know that you don't pull out any protruding objects from the body. However, it wasn't like she could just take him to the hospital. Still, he was bleeding pretty badly and if she couldn't stop it then he was going to die. "Are you fucking stupid?"
Victoria had never actually given first aid before, although she did get very high scores on the little quiz that they give you at the end of the course. So far she was doing just fine, but she couldn't quite control the panicked feeling rising up from her chest. The blood was making her feel queasy, and it seemed as if she could not get it to stop. She applied more pressure to the wound, and made failed attempts at appearing calm. At least he wasn't freaking out as much as she was, going on about Kansas and Toto tin woman, or whoever the fuck. At least he was trying to talk, perhaps if she spoke back calmly she could think of something in the meantime.
"Vi-Victoria." Her voice quivered. "Sorry for yelling at you, but you really shouldn't have done that. But you are right, we do need to find a way out of here."
