Ashley having only read about Dittany and not being put in a position to have to use it ever in actuality took Thorfinn's word and sheepishly sniffled "oh..." she fell silent and followed his instruction desperate to help anyway that she could and forced her emotions that were on the verge of erupting at any moment. When she wasn't looking at Soleus helpless and desperate to help him she was looking at Thorfinn in awe of how amazing he was and how grateful she was to have him.

Soleus nodded a few times as Thorfinn spoke, looking a little faint. "Sounds like a really pleasant experience." He said dryly, having not ever been injured quite so badly as this. He looked to Ashley, and tried to give a hopeful half-smile, to reassure her that he was doing ok. Even though he was really quite uncomfortable.
"I think I'll survive, beautiful." He managed out, trying a cautious smirk and he tipped his head to the side, only to realise that the motion pulled his stomach, and he winced.

"Don't move." Thorfinn said sternly as he looked up from his work to Soleus' face, giving him a look as if he were scolding a child. "Find something to hold onto, this isn't going to tickle." with that, the end of his wand glowed red, then white, smoke coming from the end in thin wisps before he began to cauterize the most deep, open area of the wound.

Ashley instantly lurched forward and took Soleus, hand holding it tight, blushing she pulled back and realized that was probably not the best idea so she gave him one of the decorative pillows on a chair in her living room. "Here" she mumbled softly a helpless look on her face as she stared at Soleus feeling a lump in her throat and her lower lip quivering on the verge of crying.

Soleus clenched his teeth as the wand touched his raw flesh, and grabbed Ashley's cushion roughly, more to appease her than to actually help. He held his mouth tight shut, not wanting to let out too much noise. His head tipped back and his eyes shut tight. When the pain stopped, he swallowed hard and, with his eyes still shut, let out a stream of curses that had probably not been present in Ashley's house before. He then opened his eyes and looked at Thorfinn, and then Ashley, a little dazed.
Theo, by this point, had retreated as far back as he could out of the way, wanting to leave but not really sure what he should do, or if it was appropriate for him to disappear. Instead he sort of hovered uselessly waiting for someone to tell him what to do, as usual.

Thorfinn sat back as he admired the freshly scabbed up wound, quirking an eyebrow. Not his cleanest work, but the job had been done, & at least the bleeding had stopped.
"That settles that much." he said, as he pulled out his own miniature kit of thread & a needle, getting it strung up & ready to fix up the second half of his wound, before glancing at Theo who was still in the corner.
"Don't cower, boy." he said gruffly, before looking up at Ashley. "Do you have some rubbing alcohol?"

Ashley stared at Soleus helplessly she clutched her hands and only pulled them free when Thorfinn cauterized all of his wounds. as she pried her hands from themselves she ignored the shallow piercings she made in her own skin because of how tight she held herself, as well as the smell of burning flesh, she was sure wit ould linger in her house for weeks no matter how much cleaning she did. She knelt down beside Soleus her fingers running through his hair continually as she rest her head on his shoulder and sniffled softly "you're ok, you're going to be ok" The moment Thorfinn spoke to her she rose to her feet once again and disappeared from the room and fetched the alcohol then handed it to him.

Soleus was grateful for Ashley's soothing words, and he tipped his head back up, looking utterly drained. He looked to Thorfinn as Ashley left, giving him a look that wasn't cocky, nor angry, nor sarcastic- for once. "Knew you'd come in useful eventually, Rowle." He said, his means of a thank-you-for-that, his voice uneven and rugged.
"S-sorry." Theo managed out, nibbling his lower lip. "I think I should go-" He said, his nose twitching at the burning flesh smell. He swallowed several times, looking nauseous, before making a quick decision to disapparate, disappearing before anyone really noticed.
Soleus threw a look to where Theo had been, rolling his eyes as haughtily as he could manage through the pain.

Before Thorfinn could properly protest Theo vanishing, he was already gone.
"I mean really," he tutted softly, shaking his head with a frown. "I don't like the gore as much as everyone else but at least I haven't been sick, from it. D'you think he'll be sick?" he asked, setting down the needle & thread once they were prepared, turning to examine the wound again, mapping out his plan for sewing it up in his mind as he waited for Ashley.

After Ashley handed what Thorfinn asked for to him she turned her attention back to Soleus bending down on her knees beside him she hid her face in the crook of his neck just wanting to be there for comfort "it's going to be alright Soleus I promise"

Soleus had begun to regain his energy, at least for now, and offered her a cheeky half smirk, and a nod.
"I'll be fine. Got Rowle looking after me, haven't I?" He gave Thorfinn a cock of his eyebrow. "Theo's a bit shit with anything this grim. He might chuck up, actually. Least a wolf didn't have him as a snack." Soleus said, looking vaguely amused at himself.
He then raised his eyebrow again, but this time in question. "Is there any actually missing? 'Cos if there is I swear on Merlin's beard I'm gonna go back, kill those things five times over and have them on a baguette for my lunch tomorrow."

"Missing what?" He wanted to know as he doused the needle & then began marking where he'd thread, distracting him with some conversation as he pierced through the skin & started to sew him up. It would be minor, irritating pain compared to the rest of his ordeal, but Thorfinn himself had always personally hated the feeling of the thread tugging through his skin.

Ashley watched the 2 men in her life as they conversed back and forth chewing on her bottom lip, sitting beside Soleus she turned her attention to him fully and snuggled him close kissing his lips delicately in hopes of distracting him from the needle and thread weaving through out his skin.

Soleus returned Ashley's kiss with a smile, and then glanced down, watching the needle with an odd interest. "I meant did the stupid mutt take a chunk out, is it it all still attached? I'm quite happy with my stomach, see." He said, obviously feeling better than he had.
