(ooc. unless you want to look at hte snake pictures, can we please not use snakes anymore? Having to look up the cotton mouth gave me chills and shivers.)
"I know. Mind if I take a look at the wound?" He asked.

(ooc. I figured you would go for the egyptian thing that we originally had said. But yeah, we don't have to do anymore snakes, babe.)
She shook her head and pointed at the foot that was not covered by the covers.

(ooc. even if I did go with the asp *shudder* I'd still have to look it up. )
He looked at it and gently took off the wrappings covering it. The area was inflamed and circled two small puncture wounds. Classic venomous snake bite. At least it wasn't a copperhead. Thank God it wasn't a copperhead.
"There's some herbs that will help." He said. "I have some in my bag. If you'll allow me to treat you, I can apply them. It won't cure the wound, but it will help."
(ooc. and that expires my knowledge of snakes bites, for that is all little house on the prairie and dear america taught me about snake bites. Some herbs help, but barring modern medicine, you really just have tow ait it out, since sucking the venom out is stupid and won't work.)

She nodded.
"Of course you can treat it," she said. "But Harper.." she said.

He smiled, went back over and hugged her.
"I missed you." He muttered into her hair. He pulled away and went to go get the herbs. He redid the dressings around her foot, adding hte herbs in on the last layer and several alternating layers.
"This should help. I can't vouch for how much better it will make you feel, but it should help. Now we just have to wait and see." He said. Since she was talking and more or less alert, he decided that while it was obviously not good, it could be much much worse.

She grabbed his hand.
"How are you?" she asked. "You look tired. Have you gone home yet? Shouldn't you get some sleep?"

"Glad to be home, darlin'" He said. "How have things been around here? Have you been giving my lil' sister heck? If not, I've got quite a few months to make up for."
