[Clive knows strain when he sees it, but he isn't going to push Verso to be more honest about the pain. Were their positions swapped, he wouldn't want to advertise how much it hurt either. The main difference, however, is that Clive knew exactly what the wounds Verso had felt like.
Luckily for Verso, Clive couldn't hear him over the running water or he would have been back to the other man's side in an instant. Instead, he helps Verso up and carefully walks him to the bathroom.]
You're taking a bath. I'm just helping. I can clean up once you're in bed.
[Clive eases Verso onto the toilet seat and crouches down to start taking off the other man's shoes.]
