[After the execution, Kotetsu is moved to the solar where Kim patches him up. Once he's done, he steps away and starts slipping his leather gloves back on.]
Once again, you've gotten lucky. You'll make it through this... but believe me, you really don't want to reopen that wound. So be very careful about how much moving around you do.

no subject
Thanks. I appreciate it.
[ Though, there is a pause, before he adds on. ]
I thought about what we talked about last night when I went in there. It... really helped with my resolve. So, thanks.
no subject
... You're welcome.
We'll talk again soon.
no subject
Yeah, I'm sure we will.
