Marks snorted appreciatively at Otter's remark that Garvey could suck it. A grin curled the corner of his mouth. "C'mon. Let's get these hosers inside."
Once everyone is inside, Marks instructed T-dawg and Feral how to clean out and bandage Feral's sliced hand. "Main thing is to get out all the glass. Keep it wrapped up for a couple days, then let it air out so a scab forms. Here, take these." Marks pressed a stainless steel bowl, tweezers, iodine, gauze, and an adhesive bandage on T-dawg.
"Now, you." Marks pointed at J.R.. "Get up on the table in that room and sit down with your legs off the end." After shooting J.R. with a local anaesthetic, Marks prepped a work surface with yet another stainless steel bowl, surgical implements, a blood pressure cuff, a stethoscope, a pen light, and a syringe that he loads with 1 cc of some sort of clear solution. He talked as he works, occasionally shooting assessing glances at J.R. "First we check your blood pressure and look for an exit wound." Marks slapped the blood pressure cuff on J.R., and spent a minute getting a reading. Next, he used the stethoscope and the pen light to check J.R.'s pulse, lungs, and eyes. Obviously relieved by what he found, Marks smiled. "For a guy who just got shot, you're looking pretty good. There's an exit wound, so that's good." Marks asked J.R. to move his head and neck, and felt down the length of J.R.'s spine. "Not seeing any issues with your circulation, breathing, and doesn't seem to be a spinal injury. I'll debride with antibiotic saline and set you on a course of oral antibiotics to prevent against infection. Then a bandage over the entry and exit wounds. I'll show you how to change your wrapper...do it twice a day for the first few days, or as need be. Let me know if either wound soaks the adhesive bandage more frequently than, say, every four hours." Once Marks had J.R.'s wound cleaned and bandaged, he let J.R. up and started cleaning up the table and tools.
Next, Marks settled himself with a pad of paper and a pen at a table in the fellowship hall kitchen. It looked like he'd started making a list. "Is someone gonna make coffee?"
