[Childe smiles meekly back at Aether- he's right, he doesn't button up his jacket, it's uncomfortable and he'd prefer to have airflow while he fights- and he looks down. Oh, part of his bandages are poking above his red shirt on his chest, and he notices that the bandages around his midsection are revealed now that he's sitting down, the small window getting pushed up due to his position. Busted.]

No, he's quite alright. My injuries are more due to the burden of the Foul Legacy Transformation, but I'm hardly in the same state as last time.

[Oh...after saying that, he prepares himself for another glare. Aether knows how much stress that puts on his body.]

...So I just need a little help reapplying new bandages, is all. I hope you don't mind. I'll make sure I return the favor. After all, one should never go unrewarded when assisting the Fatui.
