Here’s a little Eirika/Tana for bleed/zoology:

Eirika watched in fascination as Tana stripped her pegasus of its tack, piece by piece, with a steady and sure hand. She then carefully extended one if its wings, running her hands gently across the mess of blood and feathers at its tip. An arrow had just managed to pierce it in their last battle, and Tana had barely landed her pegasus without a crash. It had been a terrible strain on Eirika’s heart.

Face scrunched in concentration, teeth worrying at her bottom lip, Tana cleaned and wrapped the wound, with Eirika obediently exchanging supplies asked. Damp cloth, feather-clippers, bandages, alcohol, wire, and even a comb. Finally, the tension broke, and Tana released the wing, sighing in relief.

“That should do it. We’ll be all good to go in just a few days, won’t we?” She cooed, patting her steed lovingly on the cheek. “Thanks again for all the help, Eirika. It would’ve been a lot harder with only two hands.”

Eirika waved her off as she finished packing up all the first-aid supplies. “I think you had it handled. You know, you say don’t know if you’re much help, but not many others would’ve been able to patch that wound. You’re quite talented.” Eirika would have had no idea where to start on something like that. It was far more complicated than treating a similar wound on a human.

Tana flushed, a little embarrassed but pleased nonetheless. “Ah, Syrene taught me a lot! And you know, you’re a pretty talented assistant.”
