Doctor Odyssey 1x05, Tristan Silva, Max Bankman, Avery Morgan

Robert Redford in The Sting (1973)

ok as much as i love a good faint im also a huge sucker for when a character collapses but is still conscious, maybe just dizzy or weak

stumbling or tripping on something and falling to their knees, too weak to stand up again

weak from fever or low blood sugar and failing to get out of a chair, lying on their back or side while the dizziness subsides (i actually had a fic planned for this at one point)

slumping into a chair because they cant stand anymore

reaching out to a table or wall for support and sliding to the floor (!!!)

sitting on the floor already but they slump to the side out of exhaustion

that thing where they throw their arm across their eyes out of exhaustion or dizziness (honestly one of my favorites)

character who hasn't lost enough blood to lose consciousness, maybe not even enough for it to be really dangerous, but they overwork themselves and they're suddenly hit by a dizzy spell and wind up on the ground waiting for their vision to come back

good shit: when they pretend they’re not injured and did nothing to protect anyone, because they want to keep up that selfish reputation

Sheriff Country s01e10: "Travis's blood pressure is dropping. He needs a hospital, not a first aid kit."

Sheriff Country s01e10: "You need to push until the knife is in his chest cavity. [...] Just press until you hear the hiss. That's the trapped air escaping."

I'm not going anywhere until this is finished. Hawkeye 1x06
