[It's actually shockingly eerie, recovering from an explosion to find yourself looking at someone who could be your doppelganger at a glance. Over six feet, slightly gangly, generally well-pressed and with a shock of premature white hair... Quentin thinks deliriously to himself that it's a good thing his face is bleeding, otherwise they might get themselves confused.
He's also totally sympathetic to the tendency to dither. With a few... fewer twists and turns, or had his twists and turns been not quite so twisty, he would probably have ended up just as inclined towards avoiding the front lines and trailing off awkwardly. As it is, he is almost depressingly used to explosions, projectiles and bleeding, and manages to be an incredibly good sport about having to hold a handkerchief to his definitely-bleeding face.]
Which way is the hospital? And could you possibly help me up?
[He'd ended up on a street corner some time ago, thanks to the shock, and hasn't quite found his feet yet, or cleared his head enough to try.]
