Kelan let the doctor do whatever he needed to do without a fuss. This was the 'midsin', after all.
Of course, then the doctor reached for his blanket. Kelan frowned at that. [What do you want this for? It's filthy,] he pointed out, even though he knew nobody understood. He pushed himself up on one elbow and looked all round. This room was so clean, like everything else in it. Except for him and his blanket and his ruined clothes. And Ashlee was trying to clean him... [Are you going to clean this? You'd be better off getting rid of it,] he added, and then started moving carefully so that he could get the blanket and his overcoat out from underneath him. He didn't want to get tangled up in the 'midsin' tube.
