It makes sense. Of course it does: they'd been collecting blood by the buckets, and there's only one place to get blood, and of course Yuri had gotten himself trapped again, because Flynn wasn't there to help him and they likely would have been overwhelmed eventually anyway.
And he'd known, distantly, that other people must be trapped there as well, because the city was quiet and haunted by zealots.
And Yuri is tired because he was bled for Goddess-knows-how-long, there in that awful place alone. Flynn presses his nose into Yuri's still-damp hair, trying to make himself breathe. ]
