"I'll get them later." His voice utterly lacking in concern for the coats, he steadies Kira as the other shifts his grip to brace, and then keeps going, straight through the inn without a glance or a spared moment of acknowledgement to anyone else.
Other people would only make a mess of it all, and Casey keeps Kira moving, taking the steps as slow as necessary to be sure Kira doesn't slip and crack his jaw on the staircase. It's a slight labor to get Kira to the bathroom, but he eventually manages, and deposits him against a solid surface in the small room before moving to the bath.
There's a familiarity in the action of turning the faucets hot, and setting the water to run, the tub stoppered. A familiarity that doesn't live in his own muscles, but is there as clear as any other skill he's learned or picked up from others.
He spares a glance over his shoulder after testing the water pouring into the tub, and kneels at Kira's feet to work on the laces he's sure his roommate's hands would only struggle with.
