( when he passes out, he does wonder if he's going to wake up. he doesn't know what's going on with his body but he wonders if it's too much for whatever he's become.
but somehow, he opens his eyes and he's awake. he knows where he is immediately by the sound of the machines and the wires on his chest. his mouth is dry and his eyes burn and his back and shoulder still feel like fire but he's...awake. and the pain isn't as bad.
he licks his lips and glances over, not turning his head because that still hurts. )
