While that's true, there's almost no worse vessel for such traits than young children or animals.
[ He lifted a slim brow at the dark dragon, who had ceased to pay attention to Tzilan in favor of leaning over the edge of the desk and watching what Saralegui did. Its long tail lashed, like a cat's. ]
The clothes aren't important. Are they, sweetling? You've been quite the charming patient, no biting or hissing at all.
[ He smoothly stroked the pale dragon's cheeks, followed along the line of her back, smiling almost to himself. And then looked up to Saralegui. ]
Flip it open. There should bee several small-- quite small-- little wells with screw-on lids. Pull out the one with a gold-and-green symbol on the top. And the sachet of wax paper.
Pull two of the small rectangles from the sachet. They look pale, like parchment, but are soft and spongy to the touch? The soft insides of specific mushroom caps, trimmed and cut for the purpose of wound-dressing. They keep for quite some time, and are very useful in preventing infection.
Uncap the small well, and smear the agent inside on one side of each of those rectangles. It will feel gummy and smell faintly of garlic: this has a similar property, but will also help encourage scabbing. And, coincidentally, help keep the mushroom cuttings in place over the cut while we wrap a bandage over-top.
