(TW; mention of amputation)His had was entirely artificial.
Pixal looks up at them with sympathy in her eyes. "He will need some rest, though he will still be able to fight given time." she explained. She left the clipboard on the desk near the green ninja and walked to the door.
"Though I have to say..." she started to seem more distressed with her words."His...arm- well lack thereof..."
They weren't sure why it was so unerving to her, maybe due to the last incident with robotic limbs (Borg's spider arms-).
She fixed her composure and continued, "That, along with his left eye, do have some additions that will be difficult to work with for some time, but I will inform you all when he wakes."
"Okay. Thank you guys." Nya says, stepping a bit closer to Lloyds bed.
"S-So...so how long will he be asleep for?" Jay asked, a bit worried though sligtly fascinated with the attachment.
"We're not sure, hopefully not much longer." Zane states.
Kai, after being silent and still for so long, calms himself the best he could and walks over to the bed. Lloyds eyes aren't open, but he seems exhausted and dead in the face.
Brushing away the image in his mind, he says, "Okay this...this is all a lot for us, but it'll be even harder for Lloyd to come to grips with it- so don't say anything negative or weird about his arm, support him on this, okay guys?"
"Of course we will, Kai. He's our brother." His sister says.
Nya hugged from behind, knowing how hard it must be for him as well. "..do you need some time?" she said.
"Yeah.."
"Alright. We will check in on you all in half an hour." Pix lead the others out of the room, having one final look before closing the door, giving Kai some privacy.
They went into the kitchen, mostly staying silent, trying to take in all that has happened...
"Is there anything you can tell us now?" Jay finally spoke.
Zane shares a quick, unsure glance at Pixal, questioning if the others would be ready for the response. "Sadly no." Pix finally states.
The ninja nodded collectively, simply having to deal with that until the green ninja wakes up...

His eyes go to the engagement ring on the side desk, almost tearing up at it but not knowing why.
They've been engaged for a few months now, he was even wearing his own ring presently.
His tears are the least of his worries though.
Lloyd has always been insecure about his appearance. And with what's happened recently, he'd be even more self-conscious of it all now.He abscent mindedly puts a hand to the blonde's new robotic one. It doesn't feel as metallic as he thought...it still feels..comforting to him in a way.
It's still Lloyd's.
Lloyd's POV
After I had passed out, I didn't feel a thing, thank God. But..for the first ten minutes or so..I heard voices.
I had been since Morro took me, and they drive me crazy.
They were getting so loud...so... so unbearably fucking loud-
Then a I felt a harsh jab in my eye, and it stopped.
All I heard was silence for what felt like days..
I felt someone's hand on mine and finally woke up...
Third Person POV
As soon as Lloyd had woken up, his lover took notice of it and their eyes met.
"Lloyd...." the hand not on the green ninjas own went to the blondes check, right underneath his- now metalic yellow- eye.
"..huh?" his new eye went in multiple directions, scanning the room before finally landing on Kai. "...what.. what's with my eye..."
"It's...it's robotic...just like..this.."
The blonde finally looked at his arm to see nothing but robotic parts in place of his pale skin."I know this is a lot for you, just know that we all still see you the same, and this doesn't change how much I love you, okay?"
The blonde was still silent, as the latter let him observe his new attachment. A button at the top of his shoulder was flicked on with ease, and Lloyd moved his arm accordingly, moving each of his fingers individually, even figuring out that his wrist can turn 360 degrees.
After a short while of silence, Lloyd finally spoke, staring at Kai with nothing but love.
"Oh, Kai.." he moves up to kiss him, which the brunette didn't think was right at the moment, but didn't pull away until the blonde did. "you're so caring, aren't you?""...Lloyd..?"
"It's alright, really."
"You're sure?"
"Mhm." he touched the metal on his arm and smiled."It's kinda cool when you think about it, yeah?" His metal hand moved up to touch Kai's own, squeezing it a little. "Like, I'm a cyborg now!"
Kai was about to object, saying something probably stupid, but instead just laughed softly, bringing up the metal hand he now possessed and kissing it.
"I really love you, Lloyd."Maybe...this wouldn't be too bad after all.
And even if it was, they'd get through it together, surely.
