Taiga is remarkably unchanged in person.
He makes it to the hospital when she is in ICU. Koh's not conscious for that, as he's also in treatment. Using that much Soul, particularly to Bursting levels, should have been enough to kill him. And it almost had, apparently. He was under for hours and he wakes up feeling like he hasn't slept in two months. Taiga's there with Julia and leaves not long after his eyes are capable of staying open.
"Don't mind him," Julia offers with a wry smile. "He's trying to keep from throttling my coworker."
"Your… your husband?" He chokes out, trying to remember how breathing and existing works.
Julia laughs a bit. "That too."
Koh struggles to put thoughts to words, feelings to movement. His fingers twitch, that's a good sign. Maybe. "S….saa…."
Julia looks at him with pity. It has to be pity, what else could it be? "They just finished. They can't risk waking her up yet, however."
"Will she..." Koh can't finish his sentence, literally.
Julia only smiles with her lips and doesn't reply.
