STOP DOING THIS IN INJURY FICS!!
Bleeding:
Blood is warm. if blood is cold, youāre really fucking feverish or the person is dead. itās only sticky after it coagulates.
It smells! like iron, obv, but very metallic. heavy blood loss has a really potent smell, someone will notice.
Unless in a state of shock or fight-flight mode, a character will know theyāre bleeding. stop with the āi didnāt even feel itā yeah you did. drowsiness, confusion, pale complexion, nausea, clumsiness, and memory loss are symptoms to include.
blood flow ebbs. sometimes itās really gushinā, other times itās a trickle. could be the same wound at different points.
itās slow. use this to your advantage! more sad writer times hehehe.
Stab wounds:
I have been mildly impaled with rebar on an occasion, so let me explain from experience. being stabbed is bizarre af. your body is soft. you can squish it, feel it jiggle when you move. whatever just stabbed you? not jiggly. it feels stiff and numb after the pain fades. often, stab wounds lead to nerve damage. hands, arms, feet, neck, all have more motor nerve clusters than the torso. fingers may go numb or useless if a tendon is nicked.
also, bleeding takes FOREVER to stop, as mentioned above.
if the wound has an exit wound, like a bullet clean through or a spear through the whole limb, DONT REMOVE THE OBJECT. character will die. leave it, bandage around it. could be a good opportunity for some touchy touchy :)
whump writers - good opportunity for caretaker angst and fluff w/ trying to manhandle whumpee into a good position to access both sites
Concussion:
despite the amnesia and confusion, people aināt that articulate. even if theyāre mumbling about how much they love (person) - if thatās ur trope - or a secret, itās gonna make no sense. garbled nonsense, no full sentences, just a coupla words here and there.
if the concussion is mild, theyāre gonna feel fine. untilā¦.bam! out like a light. kinda funny to witness, but also a good time for some caretaking fluff.
Fever:
you die at 110F. no 'oh no his fever is 120F!! ahhh!ā no his fever is 0F because heās fucking dead. you lose consciousness around 103, sometimes less if itās a child. brain damage occurs at over 104.
ACTUAL SYMPTOMS:
sluggishness
seizures (severe)
inability to speak clearly
feeling chilly/shivering
nausea
pain
delirium
symptoms increase as fever rises. slow build that secret sickness! feverish people can be irritable, maybe a bit of sass followed by some hurt/comfort. never hurt anybody.
ALSO about fevers - they absolutely can cause hallucinations. Sometimes these alter memory and future memory processing. they're scary shit guys.
fevers are a big deal! bad shit can happen! milk that till its dry (chill out) and get some good hurt/comfort whumpee shit.
keep writing u sadistic nerds xox love you
ALSO I FORGOT LEMME ADD ON:
YOU DIE AT 85F
sorry I forgot. at that point for a sustained period of time you're too cold to survive.
pt 2
This is stunning!! Ahhhh
reflection
I've never felt more unity in the human race than when ao3 crashes and everyone floods to Tumblr to complain about it
the true villain of my novel is actually my inability to stay focused for more than 5 minutes
Fandom pro tip: engage with fandom based on what you love, not what you hate. Goes for ships and characters, plot points etc.
