UH OH sam OPERATED

ch 3 of Queap/MASH crossover episode

WARNING: THIS CHAPTER IS OVER HALF JUST O.R. I DID MY BEST NOT TO BE HEAVY-HANDED BUT IT IS SURGERY AND I AM EXPLICIT ABT THAT.

torture the bisexual brunette man some more

endorsement from my really cool and smart friend;

bts [including detail of what all the medical shit was since i had to research a LOT for this]

First off; the end of the chapter has a scene abt bj freaking out over stitches. i wrote a note at the end of the chapter explaining WHY he freaks out, but for those of you that dont know what suture types look like [me, like a week ago], this is a very shitty diagram i made

as you can see, hawkeye's USUAL pattern [with a totally different suture material] is pretty minimal, just some small lines/dots. meanwhile sam is making the barber pole/screw/candy cane that i described.

the mattress suture, i BELIEVE, is like. the 'better' one, like its really secure, and even if one fails the whole thing wont, and also shows minimally. but the simple continuous is EASIER and the more 'obvious' choice. not to mention the material change [someone from 1999 would probably prefer silk. cotton is more... brittle? and it slides less easily. learning curve.]

anyway i'll put snips of my document but incase u have a screenreader or just dont wanna use images to read, heres the google doc . this is just what i had on-hand to help guide the scene and get the details right

honestly this shit was super fun. very 'AOUGHHH WHAT DO YOU MEAN' but very fun. would do again. love doing that shit. love making the viewer suffer.

anyway

heres also this shitty diagram to explain how/why sam was looking in the wrong place for the bullet. its cause his brain was looking at the Now position of the wound and not the Then position

i wish i had more excuses to write anxiety-filled surgery scenes this was funnnnnn

also for anyone wondering. my bts started because i am usually very Loud with my creative process, and i posted like 'oo and heres some behind the scenes' for a digital painting and someone commented that as a non-creative, it was a nice insight into things, and now thats been reinforced by someone else saying the bts was fun to read on my Havin' A Ball sam and al piece. so. the bts will continue lol

gives you all insight as to why i dont have a schedule to when i post things because. ough.

i also type up these announcement and bts posts before i publish the next chapter, cause i wanna do it all in 1 swoop, so i have to write them with no link yet

so it just looks like this in my drafts
