Rolling his shoulders, Archer felt the stiffness from the fight from earlier. Gideon was not one who normally got angry, but when he got angry, he needed to be avoided. And when he got angry in a fight... Archer was shocked he wasn't dead. Gideon is a ferocious fighter and he almost never shows mercy, so when he walked off, that was a first for him. It was a curious thought that it happened with him though. He knew that they were close friends, but Archer had never known that he had that kind of affect on Gideon at all. He leapt up onto a nearby stump and cringed when he bent in half to brace for impact. Something was definitely wrong with his ribs, he knew that for sure. But if he told Gideon, he would never live it down. A child of Athena getting beat by a child of Ares? That was going to be hard to live down, even in his own cabin. 

Walking passed cabin eight, where Gideon lived alone at the moment, Archer noticed an unfamiliar horse sitting outside of it. He raised an eyebrow and walked passed a group of guys, who were all looking at the horse as well. Archer called out, "Hey, Colt? Do you know what's going on?"

"Why does everyone think I know what's going on?! Gideon asked me the same thing about five minutes ago!" Archer was amused by the snappiness in the Venus's child's voice, but he made a mental note not to ask him about anything ever again unless he knew Colt was involved. He continued down toward the infirmary, hoping that Kiran was there rather than having to go to her cabin to find her. 

Wandering around had led Kiran back to the infirmary. If Arianna wanted her meds, she'd go there. Besides, worrying about it won't help. When she walked into the building, her half sibling was no where in sight. However, after a moment a girl poked her head around the corner where the office area was. Realising, it was only her councilor, she gave a breaf wave before disappearing behind the wall again. Kiran followed her sister to the room to deposit the medicine she had been carrying around. There was some small talk about what was going on before the girl went back to the paperwork strewn across the oak desk. There wasn't anything she wanted to do, so the half Indian girl helped out around the infirmary. She spoke to the patients, exchanging stories, and joking around. A Hermes kid was getting to the climax of an interesting (and probably false) story, when the door open to reveal Archer.

Archer nodded to the Hermes child as he entered. He smiled at Kiran as he approached and said, "Hello, Kiran. You are looking lovely as always." He laughed and sat down on one of the nearest, empty beds next to her, cringing as he doubled over. He turned to where he stretched out along the bed, resting his head on one of the pillows. He kicked off his feet and looked closely at Kiran. "Kind of got into a fight with Gideon while he was angry. I think he may have bruised my ribs. Mind checking me out?"

"Thanks, and no problem," Kiran smiled at her new patient. She stood up, and headed over to the office to grab a couple of supplies before heading back over to the bed Archer was lounging on. She then placed her tools on the stand next to the bed. "If you don't mind, I need you to take your shirt off." The vibrant girl said expectanly. "It'll be easier to examine without it, but if you're uncomfortable, we can find ways around it." 

Archer raised an eyebrow at the taking the shirt off part and he laughed before cringing at the pain that shot through his stomach. "Can't wait to get me out of my clothes, Kiran? I thought you were better than that." Complying with her command however, he gripped the bottom of his shirt and lifted it up and over his head. Tossing it to the side, he laid back down again so he was more comfortable. Shifting around, he turned his head to look at Kiran. He saw, out of the corner of his eyes, that his stomach was red where his ribs were, which was most possibly the bootprint left by Gideon. "Do you ever take a break, Kiran? You always seem to be here." 

Kiran laughed. "Trust me, Archer, of all the people I've seen unclothed, you are just another body." Her fingers lightly brushed over the obvious mark, making sure not to apply any pleasure. The area surrounding was also slightly affected. "When you're the counselor of the cabin in charge of the infirmary, you tend to spend quite a bit of time here. Besides, I like it here. There's people to talk to, and things to do. But I guess I take some breaks. I have to eat and sleep like most people. I'm not a robot you know," The brown skinned girl then started to apply pressure around the area. "Tell me if it hurts," She said, moving her fingers nimbly around the bruise.

Archer cringed and said, "Yeah, that hurts!" He laughed a little bit, cringing as she proceeded press and gritted his teeth. "I thought you're supposed to make things feel better." He smiled at her and leaned back into the pillow. He should have never engaged Gideon in a fight. If Claire hadn't been in the lake, something bad might have happened with the weapons drawn. Archer turned his head toward Kiran once again. "How many times have you had Gideon in here? He doesn't seem to get hurt as much as the others do." 

"I have to figure out what hurts in order to make it better, duh," Kiran grinned, her hands drawing away from the injury. "Gideon comes in every once in awhile. Many times he's just escorting someone HE injured. I understand training and all, but sometimes he needs to take it easy. Otherwise he's goning to wear himself down." She sighed. "I'll be right back," Quickly, the daughter of Apollo headed into the back, where she retrieved a small, golf ball sized chunk of ambrosia. Then, she returned with some instructions. "Here's some ambrosia, it will accelerate the recovery process." She said, handing the godly food to him.

Archer raised an eyebrow and took the ambrosia from her. He ate it quickly and took a deep breath. He felt a tingly type sensation going through his stomach, just over his ribs. He cringed and took a deep breath. "Thanks," he said quietly, sitting up. He grabbed some nearby bandages and held them up. "Just as a precaution," he told her with a smile. Having bandaged both Gideon and himself multiple times, Archer was a pro at it. He quickly wrapped his ribs before shifting his shirt back on. He smiled at Kiran and said, "I'll see you at the party, yeah?" He waved to her before leaving there, walking out of the cabin. He figured he should go find Gideon and make him apologize... but maybe not. Laughing to himself, he began making his way toward the Ares Cabin.
