"Oh," Jamie replies, his voice sounding a little bit odd even to himself. "It's...good he helped ye with it, then."
For all that the injury looks bad, a lot of it - like the cut on his cheek - is superficial, and he's able to pull himself up with the help of the stick. He doesn't stop Kaylee if she does assist, although there's some faint protesting along the lines of telling her not to move her bad arm while she does so. After all, he is tired - very tired - and sometimes it's easier to have someone help. It also means he's a little less inclined to try and argue that Kaylee needs to see a real medic right now.
Getting out of the open area, though, is probably a good idea. "Do ye think the tank will fit two?" He's seen them, but never been in one. "We should probably get moving before someone decides that we would make for good targets." There's the whine of mortar fire in the distance, not close enough to be a danger - yet.
