oh the randomness!

'Rivendell.' said Frodo. 'Very good: I will go east, and I will make for Rivendell...' He spoke lightly, but his heart was moved suddenly with a desire to see the house of Elrond Halfelven, and breathe the air of that deep valley where many of the Fair Folk still dwelt in peace.

(The Fellowship of the Ring, Book I, Chapter 3)

✧ Broken ribs suck. You don’t just “walk it off.” Breathing hurts. Laughing hurts. Existing hurts. Characters with rib injuries won’t be doing heroic sprints.

✧ Concussions aren’t instant naps. Dazed vision, nausea, dizziness, maybe even personality changes, but they’re not going to collapse neatly like in the movies.

✧ Blood loss is sneaky. It’s not just about dramatic pools of blood. It’s dizziness, confusion, and the body getting cold as circulation tanks.

✧ Adrenaline lies. Someone can take a serious injury and not feel it until the fight’s over. That “I didn’t realize I was bleeding until later” trope? Very real.

✧ Twisted ankles are brutal. One bad step and suddenly running is off the table. Even walking hurts like hell. Perfect way to ground a chase scene.

✧ Burns linger. Even small burns hurt more than most people expect. Blisters, infection risk, constant pain, it’s not just a cool scar later.

✧ Dislocated shoulders = useless arm. Characters can’t keep swinging a sword or firing a gun. They’re basically fighting one-armed until it’s fixed.

✧ Shock is a thing. Pale skin, trembling, rapid heartbeat, and eventually disorientation. A character might not even realize how bad their wound is.

✧ Stitches aren’t magic. Getting sewn up is painful and recovery takes time. They’re not instantly battle-ready after a needle and thread.

PREV TAGS WAIT DO THEY PLAY AMERICAN FOOTBALL IN AUSTRALIA???

I read “footballer” & thought “okay it’s not the US so that means soccer” but the way he’s described does sound more hulking and brutish than I generally think of soccer footballers.

I’m not confused, dad! I’m just Australian!

River is the MMC, Talo is his dad. Our main couple are still not together despite the soulmate bond thing. She called River’s friend Ash “mate” to get under River’s skin because she was mad at him, and his family misinterpreted drastically.
