#found out about a lot of things

[cepheusgalaxy]

Done! Febuwhump day 12, not exactly commiting to the prompt very well, but overall, very fun to write. Who knew medical(?) whump could be so fun? Cws for explicit language/swearing (a little), blood and injuries. If I lost anything, you can warn me!

Febuwhump day 12: Semi counscious.

“Miriam, are you sure you are fine?”

She dismisses his worry with a hand gesture. “Yes, yes, Zaire, I’m fine enough. Polaris went to get supplies and I can wait.”

Zaire did not quite believe her.

They were tired after running through a battlefield and had finally found a seemingly abandoned military base to rest, but Miriam had got injured, and, while Polaris went to survey the place, Zaire stayed with her to treat her wounds the best he could until Polaris found some first-aid kit.

He sighed.

“Come here, let me see it.”

Miriam hesitated, but then she laid her leg flat on the floor--Zaire didn’t miss how she winced--and let him analize it.

Her tight, as he’d thought, had a pretty concerning laceration.

“Okay”, he said, getting their extra water bottle and cleaning his hands. “How much does it hurt?”

She frowned. “Eight out of ten.”

He nodded and got a piece of clean--well, mostly clean--cloth from their bag and put her trousers out of the way. He pressed down. Miriam winced.

“Sorry.”

She shook her head. “M’ fine.”

“You pretend that’s true and I pretend I believe you, Miriam.”

She let out a weak laugh, but Zai was concerned. He could see her sweating, and she was pale. Zaire wasn’t completely sure if it was because of the blood loss.

He contined applying pressure and as the blood soaked the cloth he took out another one and put over it. Shit. When would Polaris come back?

“Lay down”, he told her. When it was clear she wouldn’t manage alone, Zaire freed one hand and helped her. “Remember to breathe, okay?”

Miriam nodded. She bit her lip.

Finally, the bleeding stopped. Zaire didn’t have much to help him cleaning the wound, nor a font of tap water near, so he just used the water from the bottle. He wished he had soap.

He made sure to keep the cloth there and talked to her.

“Water?”

Miriam nodded weakly. As he helped her take a sip, Zaire could see her fists closed.

“It’s gonna be alright, okay? Just try to focus on another thing.”

“O-okay, I’m fine”, she said.

She kept mumbling something, but her voice got lower and lower.

“Miriam?” His voice was an octave too high when he reached to her.

Zaire leaned closer and checked her wrist. Her heart rate was going up.

That was not a good sign.

“Miriam? Miriam, you think you gonna pass out? Miriam!”

“I’m--I’m good--”

Zaire was getting more worried by the minute. She was going to pass out either from blood loss or pain soon. Where was--

“Polaris!”

His blond head appeared from behind a corner.

“Is she okay?”

“No.” He answered.” Found something? First aid? Bandages? I’m accepting even alcohol at this point.”

“Alcohol?” He said, confused. Polaris handed him a white box with a green cross on it. First aid. Zaire sighed in relief.

“Got any clean clothes?”

Polaris nodded.

“Oh, my, Polaris, you’re great. Put the supplies there while I finish this?”

As Polaris got all of the stuff he’d got to a side and sat next to them, ready to help, Zaire got what he needed from the kit. Bandages, saline--and turned to Miriam. She was pale and didn’t seem too coherent.

Zai pressured her wound once more, then he cleaned it with the saline solution and blissfully clean cloth. He then applied antibiotic and bandaged her up.

“Polaris”, he said. “I need your help.”

“Yes?” He answered without looking at them. He didn’t like blood.

“Don’t worry. I’ve already taken care of it. No blood in sigh.”

Zai noticed when he relaxed.

“She’s fainted.” When he saw Polaris’ wide eyes, he added. “I don’t think it’s serious, but we should loose up her belt to help her circulation. Can you do that? We also have to check if she’s breathing and her heartbeat.”

He nodded.

--

After a while, Miriam woke up.

Zaire let out a sigh of relief and offered her a glass of clean water from the base’s water filter.

“Can we please not do this again?”

She gave them a tired smile.

“Yea, I’d like that.”

"Do you miss the time when you used to do no harm?"

Old habits.

Merc behaviour is based on a nice little comment @up-in-flames-writing left on one of my comics :)

Rambling and more silly drawings below.

Loosely based on the Solemn Vow's public blurb:

Art lovers will cherish the bust of Hippocrates, commemorating a time when the Medic still thought doing no harm was a good idea.

I am absolutely convinced that Medic carries dextrose drops with him. German pharmacies throw these after you when you buy anything at all. I went to check if this one specific brand I know of had been around since the 60s and 70s and yes, it was.

Small acts of kindness I can see Medic doing is giving everyone one of these if they are tired. I'm talking about Engineer mostly.

Or they snack on them when solving practical problems together, like during the teleporter bread tumor incident.

ENG PLAYERS I BESEECH YOU

I have been informed that you guys are getting part 4 of episode 7 tomorrow, which means we are FINALLY going to get the official romanization of Revaan's name, somebody please tell me because I need to know what it is.

like, yes, it's probably just Revan/Levan, but look, I'm sitting here with my finger over the button of all these Laverne and Shirley jokes and just waiting for the opportunity to deploy them --

[keferon]

Did you think I was done? Ahahahaha no, I have more.

Because chapter 70 of MOMU gave me the very dynamic between them that I missed so much, I just blacked out and started drawing uncontrollably lmao

Also. ALSO. I noticed a while ago that Prowl has the habit of..like…constantly frowning. So. I did a bit of research and made this graph.

In 70 chapters, Prowl frowns rougly 104 times. And the intensity of this gesture is very clearly correlated with the development of his relationship with Jazz, as you can see ahahahahah It might be wrong tho don’t take me seriously I’m not good with graphs

[poorly-drawn-mdzs]

Put that thing back or so help me.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

[vaguely-concerned]

are. are you telling me that if the romanced mage warden dies and alistair is king, he deadass stares greagoir down over her dead body and grants the circle of ferelden its autonomy after ordering it rebuilt somewhere safer. first you have to deliberately leave him behind so he won't die for you and then he does that for you once you're gone, even when you're broken up??? absolute and literal king behaviour of the highest order????? the actions speak louder than words of it all??????? I think I hauve covid

Many thanks to @rewuyuu for the commission!

hello everyone do you have a moment to learn about Sampo and Jing Yuan friendship propaganda because IN THIS ESSAY I WILL--

(based on that one Jason Momoa meme, because this is so their energy)

Edit: said essay--

(obligatory these are just personal headcanons of a friend and mine other interpretations are valid)

-They both go :3 they are both some of the few characters that make that face and it is adorable.

-They both conceal their true deeper feelings behind teehee funny man/lax eepy personas [this is assuming the Funny Bone video is canon to Sampo. It was made for Hoyofair but Hoyoverse showcased it in the Live concert event so I consider that canon until Hoyoverse says otherwise]

-On the topic of that both had a tight-knit group of friends they hung out with when they were younger and were ride or die with. Unfortunately, this turned out to be die as all of their friends died (some of the HCQ are still alive but are either reincarnated or so changed/driven mad from Mara the version Jing Yuan knew had died) while Sampo and Jing Yuan were the only one out of their pals to survive.

-But both had to move on and continue to anyway, whether they wanted to or not

-Due to these things in common they would understand and relate to each other in a deep, meaningful way that few others in their lives could. There would be a certain level of liberty to their friendship because of it. They'd be able to release pent-up emotions and trauma as well as sympathize and empathize with each other. They'd be able to support each other and trust each other with the burdens of their pasts because of it. While not easy for these topics to come up initially, once they did they would find a safe space in each other for these topics. And from this would form a strong bond of trust.

-Not to mention Sampo would be a great way for master strategist ™️ Jing Yuan to keep tabs on what is happening throughout the galaxy in other places or gain valuable information for the Xianzhou Alliance. AND as Jing Yuan has expressed a lot his daily life is quite boring and loves to hear tales from the Astral Express's adventures he'd also love to hear all the wild antics Sampo gets up to because you KNOW Sampo has some wild tales to tell

-In happier news Sampo is very outwardly mischievous while Jing Yuan is also hella sneaky but in a different way usually. But when put together they bring out the utter gremlin in each other and are constantly messing with each other or having a prank war but it's all in good fun. It makes them both genuinely laugh a lot, breathing new life into their days.

-Also Mimi is either really affectionate with Sampo or bullying him (safely and gently) but it freaks Sampo out because she so beeeg. Jing Yuan finds it hilarious.

Huzzah! It's birthday time! I'm slowly accumulating more and more things I like (latest additions this vest I made and a travel typewriter! Still need to fix the latter one though)

Sure has been a year.

[turtleblogatlast]

Leo getting hit with a truth curse but instead of forcing him to admit to super sad or worrying things it’s things like “it was me who broke the remote” “I saw Mikey prank Donnie and helped hide it because it’s way funnier if he didn’t know who it was” “I rip my clothes to look more like Raph’s because he’s really cool” “my stripes aren’t even red they’re pink!”
