"It's - " says Jason, thinking of the bike he really wants, but the Hood's is too far from here, and regardless, he can't Allison see that. "Just one block," he answers, leading them that way as best he can with stumbling steps, half his energy focused on not bearing down too hard on Allison.
He's quiet as they move, forcing slow, even breaths into his lungs, but it isn't helping the way it should. That creature took something from him, from both of them, and far more than just Jason's pride. He's more than weak, he's diminished, and Jason keeps his head low until they reach the bike.
"We'll go straight to Bramford," he says, activating the bike's auto controls as subtly as he can as he reaches for a helmet. He's not sure he could drive right now otherwise, certainly not with Allison to think of, and Jason turns to look at her, all his many questions and explanations tabled just for now.

"Are you okay?"
