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.”

I would like to introduce you guys to the main cast of the official @mymovie14 (web)comic!

The first chapter will come out some time in Spring :)

The comic will surround your beloved Host back at the place they hated the most - Saint Peter's Private School. The school is haunted by mysteries and horrors and Host is there one last time to solve it and stop everything. They will get help from the current students - Miriam and Raz - as well as Cody/Stalker and Leon/Editor's friend, Levi! Alongside them, Host will have to team up with one of his previous enemies one last time, because they'll have to face someone very similar. Meanwhile Cody's dad, Alex, does detective work of his own trying to solve the mystery of over 30 missing students and the weird personality of the principle, Doctor Adam. The comic is a mix of thriller and comedy and is stacked with queer representation, as well as disabled characters and characters of colour all in main cast and playing big roles in the story. I suggest you to watch the series before reading the comic, but otherwise I think you'll catch on pretty quick on the story even if you haven't watched it.

Thanks for watching over :)

The War Of The Human Throne - tag: twotht

Genre: Fantasy adventure (you can tell I love this genre)

What is it about: There are lots of races in this world; each one is fighting the other in a centuries-long war for the title of “true human”. One of my oldest and favorites.

Who is in it:

Zai (he/him) - Main traits: Skeptical, pacifist, ethical, solution oriented mindset so learns quickly. Zaire is a hybrid; a part of the world’s percentage who lives away from the war, in a utopian-ish nation called Itarja, where lots of different people from different races could live in peace and harmony… until the fire nation attacked. A nearby nation wanted to invade Itarja and erradicate all the “unpure” other-raced and hybrids who were not “pure humans”. Zai and some others managed to escape and flee to another country… who sheltered them, but in exchange, the refugee Itarjans would have to “serve the country”: The people who were of other races would work as labor for the government, and the ones who had some human blood (according to their standards) would serve in the military. Zaire, having some of their preferred genetics, was sent to a militar academy, where he met Miriam.

Miriam (she/her) - Main traits: Idealistic, focused, gentle. Miriam is one of the top-students at the academy and she fully believes in the War going on. She thinks that they, the true humans, once have won the war, would inflict no suffering upon the conquered and would rule as the superior race with mercy (she’s a little brainwashed). She met Zaire when he was being bullied by some pure-blooded students and using of her fame and authority sent them away. Since then, she and Zaire became friends. Zaire would often conftont her about her beliefs and how could she think this was right, why did she support the war, and she would be a little shaken up but ultimately stay true to her beliefs. She didn’t hate the other races; she hated that there was war in the first place, but since there was once, she was the one that was going to win. “You can’t assure that the winner is a well-meaning one unless you are the winner” (not true btw). One day, her class, including her and Zai, went to a field training and both of them got captured by an enemy surprise attack.

Polaris (he/they/it/she? not sure, he/him for now) - Main traits: Complacent, empathetic, stoic, selfless, skilled. Polaris is a super-soldier created in laboratory to serve his country. Basically a “living weapon”. He has a lot of different races mixed on him so the State doesn’t consider him a proper “human” and there is no legal or ethical barrier to anything that’s done to him. He is kept in a watched facility with people responsible for him whenever nobody needs him, and he hates, hates his job. Making people die, making people suffer, and whenever he refused to follow orders, there would always be consequences. He learned not to defy his superiors times ago. One day, he is in this military base deep into enemy territorry coz they needed him there, and someone got prisioners. Zaire and Miriam. At some point he is chosen to watch them, and they kind of convince him to free them. He is drowning in guilt and when Miriam and Zai are free, they manage to make Polaris go with them. I don’t know much about this part, but after this unexpected rescue, the three come to the conclusion that they are going to stop the war.

Aalyah (he/it) - Main traits: Focused, hateful, somewhat gentle,tho. Aalyah is Miriam's younger brother. Some years ago, when their family received the message that she was deas, he decided he'd be the one to end the war--by winning it. And inflicting his revenge on every "non-human" he finds in his way.

Note: No magic system
