( it's said through gritted teeth, but there's at least a humour to it. she's not so angry about the situation that she's going to be a complete jerk -- just like. half of one.
there's some awkward shuffling to navigate around her numb arm and leg, but she manages to work an arm around cassian's shoulders and use her good leg to haul herself up onto her feet. it's a lot more effort than she'd anticipated, and she actually has to take a moment to collect herself.
just a moment, mind, and then she jams the quarterstaff under her arm as best as she can. already she's fairly certain that this isn't going to work, but she'll be damned if she isn't going to try. she manages one step semi-successfully with the staff as her makeshift crutch before it all goes to hell. there's more cursing as she stumbles, but she manages to keep herself upright at least. )
Well. ( look this is killing her. she's very self-reliant, rey, it's actually kind of her defining trait. admitting defeat doesn't at all come naturally to her. so basically this is like pulling teeth. ) There is....a chance I might need a little more help.
