‘ i need you. ’ ( mahia )
Did she?? That was damn near IMPOSSIBLE to believe when he sincerely felt as though she didn't even want him.. ( Had she accepted his proposal of marriage simply because she was much too kind for her own good? Had she thought humouring him would be more humane?? ) -- Of course, those thoughts were really nothing more than his deep-seated insecurities, whose roots had taken hold in very fibres of his being.. and the more she pushed him away - the more she denied his help and his love in the throes of her depression and darkness... the louder his own demons grew. ( He understood that instinctive desire better than anyone. He'd an unfortunate intimacy with the need to feel safe.. and generally felt the only way that was possible was to shut EVERYONE out. -- But since Mahia had come into his life he'd been trying to change that habit for the better. And he had come rather a decent way in his efforts... but maybe that wasn't good enough. Maybe HE wasn't good enough. Maybe he would NEVER be enough for anyone. ) He didn't feel needed, even as he sat down at her side - well within her reach - and drew in a deep breath, preparing to pose the query that was dancing ever so vigourously at the tip of his tongue in spite of his feelings and the raging maelstrom of doubt and self-loathing those three little words had unleashed within him. ❝ -- What can I do?? ❞ ( Whatever she wanted. Whatever she NEEDED from him, all she had to do was say the word, and she'd have it. )

Basic Sharp Force Trauma Guide (part 1)
Sharp force trauma is the terminology used to describe an injury caused by a sharp or pointed tool. It can separated into 3 distinct types of wounds: stab, incised and chop.
Stab (top) - these are defined as having a depth greater than their length. Commonly these are knife wounds but other implements such as scissors, screw drivers and barbecue forks are often used to create stab wounds.
Incised (middle) - these are defined as having a length greater than their depth. Once again, knives are often the main culprits for these injuries and they tend not to be fatal, except if they cross a major artery.
Chop (bottom) - chop wounds are caused by objects that are both heavy and sharp (e.g axes and hatchets). They create injuries that display the smooth edges typically seen in stab and incised wounds but with the addition of abrading and crushing of the surrounding tissue.
Always remember: The depth of a stab wound cannot reliably inform the length of the knife used as a) it may not have been fully inserted into the victim or b) it may have been forcibly fully inserted causing the soft tissue to compact and compress leading to a wound deeper than the length of the knife used.
Trauma Basics (part 2) Laceration v.s Incised wound
Laceration” is a word people often use, and rarely in the scientifically correct way. To many, a laceration is associated with sharp force injuries and is frequently used to describe what is in fact an incised wound (see previous post). However, lacerations are classed as blunt force injuries rather than sharp, they result from the skin tearing as opposed to being penetrated by a sharp object. One of the main identifiable differences is the presence of tissue bridging in lacerations that is not seen in sharp force injury. Tissue bridging occurs when the skin is torn apart and the underlying structures such as blood vessels can be seen forming ‘bridges’ between the margins of the wound, these are not seen in sharp force as the sharp implement severs these structures.
Left - sharp force injury (incised or stab wound)
Right - blunt force injury (laceration)

The Different
“I’m so sorry,“ Billy said, eyes squeezed shut, and a hand up to block out any unpleasant sights and preserve the stranger’s dignity. “I thought you were drowning, not… skinny dipping.” Who swam in that lake? It was disgusting; the man would be lucky if he avoided contracting some terrible disease or… growing a second head or something. “Um,“ he accidentally opened his eyes and quickly shut them again, “Would you like me to go get you some clothes?“
❝ -- I was sleep walking, ❞ He insisted, covering himself as best he could with his hands and shifting awkwardly - attempting to find an angle who's shadows would conceal as much as possible. ❝ I'm, a somnambulist. It's a dreadful affliction.. ❞ The Immortal sighed heavily, hanging his head for a moment before he could bring himself to speak again. ❝ -- I would be forever in your debt, if you would be so kind. ❞
