[oom: Has he learned? Maybe a few things. Warnings for violence and vague sexual references]
Johnny stumbles into the bar, uniform covered in blood. Mostly not his blood, but there's what looks suspiciously like a crossbow bolt sticking into the side of his leg.
He blinks a little, pretty glad to see where he is, then goes to the bar and asks for a bottle of brandy, a spoon and some cloth.
He takes a swig of the brandy, puts the spoon between he teeth and the cloth under where the bolt is caught in the outer layers of skin and fat, then feels down the leg to check it hasn't penetrated anywhere that's pulsing.
He then grips hold of the bolt firmly.
If left to his own devices, he will rely on his basic instincts regarding first aid, and since the wound hasn't ruptured anything vital, will probably be able to cope. He'll try hard not to be rude to anyone who gives him a hand though, which is definitely a sign of appreciation.

earthworms or June beetles either," he'd come up with the last two due to looking after his kids at home.
He finishes the stitching and lays a clean gauze pad over it, with tape.

He peers down at the gauze.
"That would probably make many things easier. And most doctors do not use leeches, this is much cleaner."

To Johnny, "These will need to stay in for seven days before they can be removed. I can do it, or any doctor here could. If it starts seeming more painful, or you notice it getting red or swollen around the stitches, come find one of us then. Understand?"
(Mun has to go, sadly. Be back tomorrow if needed)

"Yeah, understood."
Beat.
"Thanks."
Limping slightly, he heads out of the infirmary, gets his beer and cigarette, then goes upstairs.
[ooc: Probably easier to fade here, thanks folks]
