"You leave quite the impression with your warnings."
Jack could appreciate the beauty of this form, especially as his fingers traced over scales to check for wounds that needed healing more than others. He could touch and get a sense of things, but he was a tactile person by nature anyway thanks to his lack of real sight. So as he healed, his fingers caressed scales as he moved along that large snake tail.
His breathing began to deepen as he gave up energy to help the gorgon, pushing his own limits in the process. Healing was a magic he knew, but it wasn't one he was best at. In this case, it would be enough to knit together the deepest wounds, leaving the skin and scales to come back on their own.
He shuddered as he stopped, wavering before shaking it off and gathering himself together. Being bone tired wouldn't help either of them right now. "It's alright. I've done this kind of thing before, and I've worked through it." He moved to the fire, feeding it gradually larger sticks before digging in his pack for a leather bag that had something very special in it: lumps of sugar.
He popped one lump in his mouth, needing the quick energy. Then he offered on to Gabriel. "Here, a treat."
