[She might be able to guess that simply based on the fact that he's relenting and allowing someone to administer medical care. The yellow canisters still strapped to his equipment harness have been long-spent, and a few of them are missing entirely.
This is not the first time he's received invasive wound care without any kind of anesthetic, and he knows it won't be the last. He's a medical nightmare, and knows full well that Angela trying to find the right combination of drugs will take time they don't have. It's going to hurt, but he's been through much worse, and his tolerance for pain is much greater than that of a normal human's.
Still, that doesn't mean it's going to be pleasant. He twists to give her better access to the wound, then does his best to keep as still as possible. He hisses and tenses beneath her, but tries to disguise it, inhaling and exhaling and counting both to himself. The last thing he wants to do is talk, but how else is he going to distract himself from the sting of antiseptic and the sharp pain of her probing the wound?]

Got sloppy.
