A week. He nestled in against Gabe's chest and pressed his face deeper against the older man's neck, trying to consider how he would make it five to seven days on the road. He had done it during the war, but he had been a younger man then and the SEP had been rather fresh in him. "Yeah, we'll have to rough it. Won't be the first time, but... we'll just have to be careful." They weren't exactly easily set up for camping in this Swiss country.
He took some minutes to let his stomach settle and the pain seem manageable again and then he removed his face to look towards the floor. With his bandaged arm tucked close to his chest, he moved to lay himself slowly down on his side, exposing the numerous ripped out sutures on his side.
"You should... fix up my side, if you think more sutures are necessary. We can bandage it if you don't," he said, hopeful but not considering he will get away without sutures. For days of travel? Best not to have to cover himself with bandages and hope for the best when it came to healing.
