Beverly realizes belatedly that this means she will have to talk him through making sense of the tricorder's readings. There are worse things. At least that will help keep her awake and concentrating, even if it takes all of her focus and brainpower.

The fact that he gives her his vest as a pillow is something she tries to hold onto. She'll have to thank him for all of this later on. When she can actually think straight.

"For now, yes," she tells him, trying her best to keep an eye on what he's doing. It's hard, supremely so. Her eyes keep trying to close. The tricorder stays silent for all of two seconds before it begins chirping incessantly. Beverly had expected as much. The sound does serve to help keep her awake. Hard to sleep with that blaring in her ears.

"The screen..." She has to close her eyes to focus on the image of the tricorder screen in her mind. Carefully, she describes what he should be seeing, listening to what he tells her, and then coaching him through the diagnosis process. Cracked rib, lacerations on her head and leg, concussion. She's lucky that neither of her legs is broken, just badly bruised. The bones are likely bruised as well. If Robin had any training with her equipment, she would suggest using the regenerators, but she can barely coax him through the tricorder. The rest... are the regenerators even in one piece?

The answer, as it turns out, is no. Not that she can tell from this angle.

Either way, her head and leg will need to be bandaged and elevated and she absolutely needs to stay awake. The latter will be the harder part. She can already feel herself slipping into silence and rest.
