"Is a reason why I was hoping you would help," Elleru returns with a coy smile. True, it might be easier for her to handle any wounds on her back and thighs in her upright guise, but shifting when wounded does run the risk of complications. It can be done without any stress on the injuries, but she'd be more than likely to tear the lacerations and cuts open further. If nothing else, it would be a painful experience, and that's something she'd rather avoid more of if she can.

She settles her great head down, giving Rey all the room she needs to play doctor.
