dignity, always dignity

and I'm like....... okay that is a perfectly normal way to describe energy and reads totally clear to me, but I KNOW you don't mean hit points/health points which is the first place my brain goes, so what are YOU using hp to mean

and it's not explained in-text, which means it was common enough to not warrant explanation to the 1908 audience, so gotta look elsewhere

horsepower. turns out it's horsepower.

and I'm absolutely FASCINATED that a commonly used initialism from 1908 now stands for something different AND YET the contextual meaning is still the same to a 21st-century reader

I could hand this guy my nintendo switch and he'd be like, ah yes I understand, this ''''pokemon'''' loses horsepower throughout the fight

fun with gradients

Cornerstone - Complete

Summary:

Hawkeye stopped running when he hit the Pacific. He had to—that was where the train tracks ended. Hawkeye Pierce, a doctor in search of a place to land, meets BJ Hunnicutt, a man in search of a doctor.

what a lovely hiding place that you have made (12/12)

Summary: Hawkeye and BJ go to battalion aid after a shelling wipes out the surgeons already stationed there, and after nearly dying themselves, the two return to the 4077 with new scars of their own.

or, Hawkeye and BJ almost die together and become even more dependent on one another than anyone could have ever thought possible.

Excerpt:

They’ve done this so many times before. Hawkeye has stripped BJ down and assessed him for bumps and bruises. He’s brushed over his scar a thousand times before, but this is different. It’s so different.

Hawkeye’s inhale is so sharp, it sounds more like a hiss. BJ jumps, but the hand on his hip keeps him from lurching any further away.

“Beej…”

It wasn’t exactly pretty the previous times Hawk checked it, but it had at least been mostly healed. Scratches had scabbed, skin only a little raw.

This is the first time Hawk is able to see it fresh.
