INJURED/HURT MEME

 

Injured by your own hand or someone else's, you still need help to get you through it. Let's hope someone finds you before it's too late!

**This meme does contain triggers of violence/possible sexual assault, proceed with caution.**

 

- Post your character, name/series/preferences in the subject.

- Others go to RNG and roll numbers 1-8 to choose a scene!

- Play it out!

 

1. Stabbed. You were stabbed, maybe multiple times.

2. Shot. You were shot either once or multiple times.

3. Broken bone(s). You're suffering broken bones.

4. Head injury. Enjoy that concussion...

5. Beaten. You were beaten to a bloody pulp.

6. Used. You were used for some kind of physical labor to the point you can't move anymore... or maybe it was more base than just 'labor'.

7. Abuse. Your injuries stem from a long period of abuse and torture.

8. Other. Is there something else? Want to combine something? Do so here!

[He can't stop himself from crying out as 'Rory's' hands press the cloth in place over his wound, but the pain subsides quickly after that. It doesn't leave entirely of course, but it goes back to a tolerable level.

Barnaby licks his lips, blinking a little owlishly at the sudden flare of blue. Crap, he's feeling tired, and he can't go to sleep... he might not wake up again.]

...your abilities really come in handy, in a situation like this.

[It's the first conversation topic that occurred to him.]

[robobunny]

[It's hard staying on the line with the operator; and the distress from interacting with a stranger combined with the distress at his 'cousin's' injury has him bordering on the edge of a panic attack. It's a struggle to stay even somewhat calm, but he keeps at it. He's of no use to his double if he loses it now.

Even so, his hands are shaky and he's rigid and tense. The conversation is a welcome distraction.]

I-I guess they do. [He lets out a small, mildly hysterical giggle.] Hard to deny h-how useful it is to have a router installed in your skull.

[thejakeisalie]

[It's impossible to ignore how hot the robot feels--it's like being given first aid by a furnace. But right now, it's a welcome feeling. He's cold...

The ambulance had better get here soon.]

Can you... [He makes a small noise of pain.] ...reach anywhere you like? What's your range?

[robobunny]

[Hopefully the ambulance isn't too far away. The emergency operator said it was on its way, but couldn't tell him where it was coming from or how long it would take.]

I...I don't know. At least a few miles? I haven't actually tried to reach my maximum range...and I get yelled at if I do more than a few blocks.

[thejakeisalie]

...I see. [Everything's starting to seem distant... dammit. He can't die here, lying in his own blood and unable to stop himself from fading away... it's just a really stupid way to die.]

Did... your parents give you that limit? ['Rory's' parents. His parents. If this was the last time he could find out about them... he managed to move one hand so it was touching his double's leg, trying to ground himself, give himself something real to hang onto.] Tell me about them, please?

[robobunny]

Kotetsu's the one who enforces that, actually, though they don't like me overexerting myself either.

[He's a little surprised by the hand on his leg, and he flinches. His human double wanted him to talk about his (their?) parents? That wasn't something he expected to be asked...but he was more than happy to comply.]

Sure...where do I start? [He hums.] They're dedicated. They won't compromise their ethics, and they won't work with people who do. They've fired employees, canceled contracts and broken ties with investors over it a couple times.

[thejakeisalie]

[He just needs something to help him focus. It's hard to fight the urge to sleep.

He smiles faintly at what his double is saying.]

I'm not surprised. [That's what got them killed by Maverick, after all.] But I'm... happy, to hear they're holding to their values.

What do they like to do, when they're not in the lab?
