"This has never made sense to me," Ryo grumbled as Dee wheeled him into the elevator. He was being discharged from the hospital following a two-day stay. "I mean, it would make sense if I'd broken my ankle or something, but I hurt my arm."
"Technically you didn't, it was the guy swung at ya with that fishin' gaff hurt your arm; you were just tryin' to defend yourself," Dee pointed out.
Ryo twisted partway around, trying and failing to look at his lover. "Don't split hairs. The fact is, my legs are fine; there's no reason I can't walk out of here under my own steam, but no, I have to be taken out in a wheelchair. Where's the sense in that?"
Dee shrugged. "Hospital policy. They want all patients to leave here in one piece, so they can't be sued for accidental injury on the way. 'Course, once you're outta the buildin' you're on your own. I guess then they're hopin' ya get injured again so they can haul your ass back inside and charge ya for more treatment."
"You'd better make sure that doesn't happen; the bill's high enough already!"
"Don't worry, baby; you're in safe hands."
