( it's true. he knows. there's no other explanation for waking up the way he had, dazed and a little sore and mostly quite confused. it's happened all too recently, so it makes it less jarring to have it happen a second time, all too soon. Matt knows he died, though... how he died is admittedly a bit of a mystery.
part of him wants to press. part of him isn't sure Elektra is the right person to ask. the rest of him isn't actually sure he wants to know. whatever happened in that fight, it's clear he didn't survive it. )
Broken? ( there's more than that, he can smell it. cuts, starting to clot and heal over. bandage, starchy and clean. new from being changed. Matt can feel the tense at his touch and his fingers still. does he need to touch what he can sense without it? technically, no, even though it's a crutch he leans on all too easily with Elektra. he won't feel around any more, it doesn't help her injuries any. he just winds her closer, as it turns out she's the steadiest thing he can sense in the room right about now. )
I'm... ( Matt frowns, almost like he can't quite decide if he's well or not. he doesn't feel the same as he had the last time he woke just like this, though what is different seems hard to pin down. ) I feel... lightheaded? Dizzy? ( is that a part of the lantern repair process? he has no idea. the tree spirit and their soft attempts to get their attention does break him out of his confusion, though. ) What's wrong?
( sadly, what has the treeby upset, Matt can't actually sense. the dimming of light is absolutely a visible cue, and that's the only kind he can't track. )
