[ while max is considering the oddity of human kindness, gansey is eyeing him over for serious injuries. the head wound is the most obvious, and since he has no idea how out of it he looks, he's thinking max looks like someone with a concussion. so he pulls a soft travel bag out of his backpack and unclips the water bottle before he lets the larger bag fall to the ground. ]

Here. [ he holds out the bottle by its carabiner clip so that it swings gently in max's direction. ] If you hit your head you don't want to drink too fast though. Sit down, there's glass in your head. I'll get it out.

[ whether max recognizes the concept of a first aid kit or not, it's a well-equipped one. there's plenty in there for cleaning and bandaging minor wounds, medical tape for sprained or broken fingers, an ace bandage for wrapping an ankle or wrist, and various tubes of ointment. there's also an epipen, a small bottle of iodine, and a couple of glow-sticks. kid is nothing if not prepared. ]
