When Moonshine volunteered to help Leo out with the gang of assholes who kept harassing him, he figured was going to come home with a couple bruises.
He had not anticipated a pair of brass knuckles to his jaw.
It wasn't broken, though, he'd dodged quick enough to avoid the full brunt of the blow. But it still hurt like a son of a bitch, and was starting to swell and bruise.
Along with some other scrapes, cuts and bruises, he looked pretty banged up. Which was why he was in the infirmary, rummaging around for rubbing alcohol and cotton swabs.

Rose was just coming back from her shift at Irving Hall, her few tips jingling in her pants pocket. She was whistling a jaunty tune as she walked in the door. And when she passed the infirmary, she stopped. Who was that with all those cuts and bruises? Wait, she knew that head of sandy blond hair. "Tyler?!"

He winced, not so much from the pain, but from the fact that he knew Rose was about to have a shit fit. "Uh, hey, Sugar. How was work?"

"What happened?!" she cried, her brow furrowed. She stepped into the infirmary, staring at him with wide eyes.

"Now, baby, calm down. It looks worse than it is." He sighed, which made his ribs kind of hurt so he winced again. "Got into a fight..."

"A fight?! With who?! Over what?! Tyler!" She let out a frustrated sigh, resisting the urge to reach out and touch him. But she did take over his job of gathering supplies. "Just go sit down," she mumbled.

He scuffled over to sit on a bed, looking like a 10-year-old who just got scolded. "Leo was havin' some trouble with these guys, and we all offered to help him out."

She dumped bottles of rubbing alcohol and iodine on the bed, then sat down across from him. She softly touched an iodine-soaked cotton ball to a cut on his cheek. "Is Leo that Spanish speaking guy?"

He hissed, wincing. "Yeah. Nice guy." He gave her a smirk. "Don't want ya hangin' out with him, though. 'Parently, girls think his accent's sexy."

She just let out a heavy sigh, tilting her head as she touched the cotton ball to another cut. "Jesus, Tyler..."

He winced again. "Look, the guy needed help. Who the hell'd I be if I let the other guys take a beatin' without helpin' out?"

"Oh, right, I forgot. You're noble," she chuckled softly, shaking her head. "I'll be right back." She stood and went to get some ice from the kitchen, wrapping it in a towel, then coming back to place it on his jaw.

He let out a whimper went she touched the ice to his jaw. "Ow..."

Rose frowned, letting up on the ice pack. "Poor baby..."

He gave her big, sad, puppy eyes, pouting up at her. "My face hurts."
