Silently, he shrugged his jacket off of his shoulders, revealing sleeves still rolled up to the elbows from the earlier procedure and the shifting tension in his shoulders. His wings flexed with the disappearance of weight and sudden vulnerability, folding into a tight, tan line down his spine. The jacket is dropped, blindly, on the bed and in Sherlock's lap. It'll be a little short on the man's torso, but John's shoulders are wider than his - it should work for the time it takes to get to the flat. ]
Lestrade and Sally Donovan are here as well. Lestrade a few days before me, I think, Donovan maybe hours after.
[ This should be enough to go on for the few days. He'll need to find a medical bag of some sort to carry all of it in. In the meantime, the local anesthetic he gave Sherlock can get to work numbing up the area around his wing and possibly through the nerves of it. It's hardly a real painkiller, but it'll do until walking is no longer needed. ]
