"Don't- oh."

Bonesaw lets go of the orf.

She curls up in a ball involuntarily around her acid wounds, trembling.

"Oh no no I didn't mean to -" there can be anesthetic she has to have some there's - she has some in a few of the needles in her body to hide the feeling of being injected but those all come with other toxins but maybe she can repurpose them but not with tools she has here but what - oh the caulduron has something. She runs over and quickly fiddles with some of the needles she keeps on herself as weapons and after a minute or two there is an anesthetizing ointment being put on her orf. 

"Sorry I didn't meant to. I didn't know you were there. Sorry I -" she starts crying again.

She shakes much less when anesthetized. "It looked like you were having a bad dream maybe?"

"Yeah."

Bonesaw wipes her eyes and holds her knees to her chest.

"I didn't know souls were real."

"How would you not know that?"

"People back where I'm from said they were real but there wasn't anything to prove it really. I believe in them till I was six and got my powers and watched my mom die - she just. Stopped. Turned into not-a-person without anything leaving her body to go somewhere else."

"Oh. Maybe it works like that for people where you're from? Not here though."

"I don't know how it works where I'm from anymore."

"I dreamed that my mom had a soul and watched over me after she died."

"I don't think dead people get to watch things, they go to one of the Elf gods and he does whatever he wants with them."

"Back home they said that if someone died they could go to Heaven and watch over people they loved."

"That sounds nicer..."

Bonesaw hugs her legs tighter.

"She saw me leave her when she died and leave my brother and daddy and dog to die too and go with Jack and. and."

And now Bonesaw is crying again. It takes a bit before she can whisper:

"She saw all the things I did after that too."

Is there.... a safe way... to hug this crying child.

Hugging her from behind should work.

"I. Wasn't good. Like she asked me to be."

It was the last thing her mother said before she died - 'be a good girl'. 

Hug hug.

Given long enough Bonesaw's crying will eventually peter off. 

Pat pat.

"'m sorry for hurting you."

"I'll sing it better and get some more ink done. It'll be okay."

"I can help fix it, if you want."

"That would be helpful, the song is pretty slow."

Bonesaw lights a candle so she can look at the damage. 

"Maybe it'll make a good tattoo of raindrop ripples in a pool of water..."

"That would be pretty, yeah."

Bonesaw starts selecting tools.

"I could make it not scar I think though it would take longer - the acid was meant to sink in deep."
