Tony nodded his head a few too many times. "I am glad I could be of assistance then! I'm glad my yelling in panicked horror actually can come in useful sometimes." He laughed, trembling a bit. It was a bit unnerving to know that the senshi might not have been able to deal with the youma if he had been alone.
Tony couldn't help but worry about him. He generally worried about them all, but Themis had saved him, and had been hurt because of it to boot.
"Oh, you're bleeding. Ah, we're not too far from the library. I've some medical supplies there? We can clean it up..." he felt terrible, even if it was a little bite. He looked up, though, when Themis pointed and laughed nervously, not sure if he was kidding or not.
He looked back down at the boy though, tilting his head to the side. He picked up his thought from before he had been distracted, "So it doesn't get infected?"

Well, hm.
"To be honest, I don't know." His broken arm had definitively translated across and so had the many bruises he had earned for himself. The marks would definitively be there when he powered down, but would they infect ?
"Im not really keen on figuring out if they do." Themis admitted. He also wasn't the best with wounds. He knew he had to disinfect them, and probably disinfect them. What if he did it wrong ?
And, well, maybe if he could redirected the man's attention to helping after the battles and not during... "If that's... not too much trouble ? Im not too sure how well a... 'terrorist' sneaks into a library, through." Air quotes and all.

"Terrorist indeed," he laughed, shaking his head. He hated that word, more and more, and not because of its meaning. But because of its misuse, as far as he was concerned, with what the senshi were trying to do. Most of them, as far as he knew at least, were just trying to do good.
And it was a tough job.
"I suppose I'll be aiding a terrorist then," he sighed, shaking his head like he really didn't care. And he didn't, "come on, it's not trouble. I do have the keys, so we'll skip the sneaking in part."
He walked them back toward the library, pulling his keys out as he went. He unlocked the big front doors and held the first set open for Themis before locking them again and doing the same with the second set. A bit much, but it suited him just fine. He went to the front desk, then toward the work room in the back. He had a medical kit in there, that would be useful, and took it out.

Ah, so the library had closed. Of course it would have, at this time - he must have spent more time at the hospital than he had thought he had, and Themis couldn't help but feel a little silly.
At least he didn't need to sneak his way inside.
The building seemed much bigger now than it had been the last time he had come here - more empty for it's lack of people, in a way. It was a little surreal, even, as he followed Tony around, taking off his coat as he they made their way toward the work room. The senshi seemed to ponder his sleeve for a moment, but then simply settled on ripping it off. With the holes already in there, it was easy, and it would be right back the way it should be next time he powered up.

Tony motioned for Themis to sit down at the table in the break room, which had a few chairs mostly pulled out around it, like it had been used quite frequently, and the chairs never properly pushed back in any time.
He took out some antiseptic and ran a cloth under some cool water before returning to carefully try and clean the bites. He was no doctor, but he imagined cleaning it would be best. Opening his mouth, he forgot for a moment that this was a senshi, and all the things he assumed about senshi.
Like they had a better tolerance for pain than he did.
"This might sting," he offered, the normal warning that was almost natural.
He cleaned it carefully, then wrapped it with a bandage, nodding with a satisfied look on his face that he had, at last, been useful. He sighed. "Thank you again, for saving me. And for getting hurt because of me. I mean, not thank you. I'd've rather you didn't get hurt but... uh," he frowned, then shook his head, "in any case, did I introduce myself? Anthony Darrow..." he offered the senshi his hand, which was shaking slightly.

Themis nodded with the statement, not looking like he was insulted by it in the least - he did flinch a bit when the cloth first hit the open wounds, but stayed put and still.
"Comes with the job description... Don't feel sorry about it. I've had worse happen to me." Really, it was better than he was the one that had gotten chomped at. He would heal quicker than Tony would have, and it wasn't looking like it was going to hinder him. Scar a bit, maybe. At least he hadn't broken his arm again.
He might have crawled off somewhere to die if he had.
For a lingering moment, the senshi seemed almost confused when Tony introduced himself, but then he remembered. Of course, the glamour. The man had no idea who he was. And even if he did, would he remember one boy who had come once in the library in recent history ? There must have been so many people that came in here daily.
"Sailor Themis." He offered as a name.

"Alright, Sailor Themis. Thank you again for saving me" He either didn't catch the Senshi's confusion when he introduced himself, or attributed it to something else. He knew they were fairly secretive, and with their bad press he wasn't surprised by that.
He finished with the medical kit and put it away, reminding himself to refill it a bit later, then motioned that they had better head out. Tough it wasn't uncommon for him to stay late, security very rarely popped in if they saw the lights on, just to make sure it was him.
And he doubted he would be able to explain his company. So he didn't want to chance it.
"I think I can make the walk home at this point," he said, as he unlocked the doors to let them out, locking them behind him for the third time, "I've never been attacked twice in one night before." He grinned at that, at least, trying to make a joke. He did still feel guilty for Themis getting hurt, but he imagined it did come with the job. Not that the idea made it any better.
"Hopefully you can stay out of further trouble, at least until your arm heals a little bit..."

The coat was put on and then he followed Tony outside - he saw no reason to linger as well, especially since the library was supposed to be closed. If security dropped by...
It wasn't quite the same on Themis' front - he sometimes did go though multiple youmas in one patrol, especially if he happened to be with one of his more-powerful teammates, but right now he was also hoping that he could just hightail it back home and spend the rest of the evening in peace. "There rarely are multiple youmas in the same general area, I noticed. You should be fine."
Still... was it stalking if he just followed him home, just in case ? Hm.

"Still," Tony said, nodding and offering Themis his hand for a parting handshake, "be careful."
He nodded his head.
"Alright, I'm going to hobble on home now. I could do with... some simple TV and sitting on the sofa, I think." He sighed, surprised by how badly he wanted something so simple. Maybe a drink.
The librarian nodded his head, then made to start walking home, expecting Themis to jump away or poof as Senshi seemed to do so often. He looked back, looking worried, wishing he had some way to thank Themis, or at least make up for putting him in danger... what if he came across a youma like that, but didn't have someone to amplify his sound attack?
He shook his head, walking slowly, one hand in his pocket as he made his way home, as normal, save he was keeping a very keen eye out for any more youma looking for a snack.

"I could definitively go for some of that myself." He let out a a small laugh. Was it odd, for something so normal to come out from the mouth of a magical fighter ?
Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but much as Tony expected, Themis was jumping his way back to the roofs when he looked back, and was gone a few seconds later.
