[It's a throwaway comment, but Itsuki's relief is clear. As much as he was angry before, now he's anxious to know if she's going to be okay. And hearing that it might have just been a second or two before he stumbled upon them helps ease some of his nerves. Now that he doesn't have to internally sweat anymore, he sighs.]
[And then Scott goes into Nurse Scott mode and Itsuki starts sweating internally again.]
Hey, I'm fine. You've got your hands full, anyway. [He very surreptitiously wipes at the corner of his mouth, deciding that as long as Scott isn't looking he might as well do some SPEEDY FIRST-AID of his own. Then he grimaces because he's got blood on his sleeve, nice.] Really. For a situation as rough as that, I got out of it pretty easily. Just some joy to replace his so-called missing wallet, and he let us go right away.
[why does this sound like a panicky stream of excuses, IT DOESN'T!!]
