Y/N was sitting at their desk, a bandage wrapped around their hand and ankle.
They had been sketching away and working on these parts for some time now.
...
...
They had a little project that they were just about done with.

Since that other day, they couldn't go on any missions until they could properly walk again. So not for another week at least.
Adora had tried asking them if they were okay before, but they responded with a simple, "I'm fine."
