To All My Black Followers And Friends, Stay Safe.

Honestly, good for her!

Entrapta got the best of both worlds.

Angst with Hordak:

Cute, adorable fluff with Wrong Hordak:

Bonus: A smiling angsty Hordak!

 Listen, you’ll have to pull my headcanon that Entrapta ends up in a OT3 (queerplatonic or not, I’m open to either interpretation)  relationship with Hordak and Wrong Hordak out of my cold, dead hands. 

Either way, I was really satisfied with not only the ending for these two, but the series in general! <3

If Indra doesn’t kill the fuck out of this twat and they take her from me I will fucking scream

The fact that I was just doing that

some of you have never struggled not to look at a book or series’ tag on tumblr before finishing it and it shows

Writing Traumatic Injuries References

So, pretty frequently writers screw up when they write about injuries. People are clonked over the head, pass out for hours, and wake up with just a headache… Eragon breaks his wrist and it’s just fine within days… Wounds heal with nary a scar, ever…

I’m aiming to fix that.

Here are over 100 links covering just about every facet of traumatic injuries (physical, psychological, long-term), focusing mainly on burns, concussions, fractures, and lacerations. Now you can beat up your characters properly!

General resources

Incision vs. laceration: Most of the time (including in medical literature) they’re used synonymously, but eh.

Types of lacerations: Page has links to some particularly graphic images—beware!

How to stop bleeding: 1, 2, 3

Puncture wounds: Including a bit about what sort of wounds are most likely to become infected

More about puncture wounds

Wound assessment: A huge amount of information, including what the color of the flesh indicates, different kinds of things that ooze from a wound, and so much more.

Home treatment of gunshot wound, also basics More about gunshot wounds, including medical procedures

Tourniquet use: Controversy around it, latest research

Location pain chart: Originally intended for tattoo pain, but pretty accurate for cuts

General note: Deeper=more serious. Elevate wounded limb so that gravity draws blood towards heart. Scalp wounds also bleed a lot but tend to be superficial. If it’s dirty, risk infection. If it hits the digestive system and you don’t die immediately, infection’ll probably kill you. Don’t forget the possibility of tetanus! If a wound is positioned such that movement would cause the wound to gape open (i.e. horizontally across the knee) it’s harder to keep it closed and may take longer for it to heal.

Broken bones

Types of fractures

Setting a broken bone when no doctor is available

Healing time of common fractures

Broken wrists

Broken ankles/feet

Fractured vertebrae: Neck (1, 2), back

Types of casts

Splints

Fracture complications

Broken noses

Broken digits: Fingers and toes

General notes: If it’s a compound fracture (bone poking through) good luck fixing it on your own. If the bone is in multiple pieces, surgery is necessary to fix it—probably can’t reduce (“set”) it from the outside. Older people heal more slowly. It’s possible for bones to “heal” crooked and cause long-term problems and joint pain. Consider damage to nearby nerves, muscle, and blood vessels.

Concussions

General overview

Types of concussions 1, 2

Concussion complications

Mild Brain Injuries: The next step up from most severe type of concussion, Grade 3

Post-concussion syndrome

Second impact syndrome: When a second blow delivered before recovering from the initial concussion has catastrophic effects. Apparently rare.

Recovering from a concussion

Symptoms: Scroll about halfway down the page for the most severe symptoms

Whiplash

General notes: If you pass out, even for a few seconds, it’s serious. If you have multiple concussions over a lifetime, they will be progressively more serious. Symptoms can linger for a long time.

Shock (general)

Physical shock: 1, 2

Well if octavia in the water isnt a parallel to 1x01 I dont know what is

I have waited years for her to become the leader, honestly it’s what she deserves

Me earlier: I know why it's important but I really don't care about the Sanctum storyline

Murphy: I think Indra should be in charge

Me: HELL YEAH WHAT'S UP SANCTUM?!! CAN WE JUST WATCH SANCTUM

idk how anyone could argue that clarke is not bellamy’s number one priority. in 5x13, he told clarke he couldn’t leave his friends behind because he couldn’t do that again, referencing leaving her behind in 4x13. he couldn’t leave them behind because of his ptsd from leaving clarke. this is canon. and even though he did end up “leaving” his so-called family in 6x08, it was for clarke. it is literally canon that bellamy will not leave his family behind because of his ptsd from leaving clarke behind unless it’s to save clarke. his priority is her. he loves the rest of them, but he would choose her over them in a heartbeat, and he has. idc what jason says. bellamy says to clarke in 6x11, “how do we save everyone that i left behind?”, meaning that he put their safety aside while saving clarke and now has to find a way to save them. their safety came after clarke’s.

so, it’s honestly so funny to me that none of them were angry about that. you would think that the people who were attacking clarke in 6a would call bellamy out for choosing her over them, but they didn’t. murphy didn’t because he felt guilty about choosing himself and emori over clarke. emori didn’t because she also felt guilty. neither of them would have had a leg to stand on. raven didn’t because she was conveniently not around for Plot Reasons. and then e/cho didn’t because she just goes along with whatever bellamy does. four people who are canonically bellamy’s family have not said anything to bellamy about him choosing clarke over them…hm, almost like jroth is not fully committing to the story he’s writing…which is just so frustrating!! there is so much potential. it’s not that there aren’t good moments still in this show. there are, but things still fall flat at times because he doesn’t follow through.

let bellamy find out that his girlfriend tried to murder clarke!! let bellamy realize that e/cho is not this “changed” person and that he fell in love with a lie!! let bellamy find out he doesn’t even know his gf’s actual name!! let e/cho be upset that bellamy chose another woman over her!! let raven call bellamy out for not being as devoted to e/cho as he is to clarke!! let e/cho and clarke just be two people who tolerate each other because of bellamy because that hug came out of fucking nowhere. let clarke find out that bellamy poisoned his sister for her!! let bellamy ask clarke how she could radio him every day for six years and then leave him to die in the fighting pits instead of deleting that line/scene out of the show even though it was in the fucking trailer. let them talk about what those six years without each other did to them!! let them realize why it really is that they have always needed each other!! let clarke tell bellamy that she radioed him every day because she’s in love with him!! let bellamy tell clarke that a part of him died when she did because he’s in love with her too!! let this story fucking progress somewhere already!! it’s beautiful, but jroth is not letting it reach its full potential, and i swear to god, if he doesn’t come through with them in s7, then literally what was the point of any of this???
