the first thing [name] saw when she opened her eyes was, surprisingly, zoro's face.
with her eyes slowly fluttering open, zoro's mouth parted in shock, seeing her wake up after she had sustained heavy injuries, "[name]!!" she turned her face to him, seeing him lean over her body, "are you okay?!"
"...z...oro?" she muttered confusedly, slowly stumbling up to sit despite her injuries.
"oi, don't get up!! you'll bleed through!" she looked down to where she had gotten attacked earlier, now that she recalls. her shirt was barely in its place, the strap cut off to reveal her bandaged-up left breast where she had sustained the heaviest damage.

[name] couldn't give much of a reaction and just looked down, clutching her wounds before standing up on her own. zoro started to panic again, "oi, i said don't move! your wounds will open u-"
