[ Sorry Lavi, you're going to have to drag him a bit more than you might have been expecting. He's not unconscious, but sagging as heavily as he is... the corruption—it's spread down his neck and under his cowl. Hard to say how far exactly it goes other than even with Crown Clown and its glow... there's a darkness that clings around it too. He lost his invocation in the last attack too, his left arm returned and his sword gone.
But in counterpoint to that... in response to that the boy just reaches out for Lavi's hand actually. In a simple but heavy, meaningful kind of way, just resting his Innocence-clad hand atop the others. Innocence, so he shouldn't spread any further blight to the shinki because it's still acting as a buffer from the actual corruption that's taken root, but.
It's almost apologetic. ]
Lavi... [ It's soft actually. Gentle as it is heavy, and he doesn't lift his head to look at the other boy yet. This isn't what he was going to say, but if this is how this fight is going...
His hand tightens for a moment. Threadbare and like someone who wants to reach out, I'm sorry, but... ]
