@onewngdseraph!

I hope that your day is full of joy, peace, and mellow! .

WIP #1 - "smile" and WIP #2 (if I may) - 21. who does the groceries?

I'll do the second one first! 21. who does the groceries?

Oh my goodness, when it's just the two of them? Fenris does by a million miles. Hawke is too much an impulse shopper and a terrible magpie; if she had the Home Shopping network in Kirkwall she'd be well on her way to becoming a hoarder. Orana and Fenris are both needed to keep these impulses in check. Fenris, on the other hand, has superlative discipline and is too grouchy to be out-bartered in the market; he'd come back with every quantity exactly correct. Plus Hawke would get distracted having conversations about nothing with everyone and never make it home again.

That said, I don't think either of them would particularly enjoy it, so as long as they have Orana and Bodahn, they happily let them take care of it.

Now, "smile," hm? 119 results, I'm afraid, and "there are too many results to show here." Let's see if I can find a good one.

i love bright colors that sear my retinas, its just so eye popping and beautiful to me I try to use them whenever I can, though there’s a lot of trial and error finding ways to use it appropriately so that it works with the entire palette.

Thank you, noses are wonderful and I’m glad you like them; all my OCs have pretty amazing noses and I just can’t get enough of those da2 elve’s high bridges; I will work that into all my elves forever pretty much

EVERY BREATH HAS FLED.

EVERY TOE HAS CURLED.

Seraph...Is there something you’re not telling me?....;P

Assuming, we have hospitals and police records, we’re not in a medieval or fantasy setting, and we have modern bandages?

Wash your hands.  Wash your hands.  Wash your hands.  Though TBH, if your healer’s hands are free of cuts/scrapes/opportunistic points of entry, they probably don’t even need gloves (we can talk about this later), just clean hands.

The absolute best thing you can do, if you already have bandages is to clean the wound, keep the wound bed moist to allow proper cellular migration, keep it covered so it’s warm, and make sure you keep breathing deeply.  Deep breathing is going to be a paaaaaain, but deep breathing will 1) keep your lungs cleared and prevent complications like pneumonia as well as 2) ensuring your body is getting well oxygenated, which is super important for healing.

Leave the bandages on for 2-3 days without uncovering/replacing them. This does not mean you can’t check the wound, but as long as your wounded person does not have a fever or chills or other signs of infection, you don’t need to keep uncovering the wound. This exposes it to bacteria/viruses, cools it down, which can slow healing, and is just uncomfortable. The only time you need to change the bandages is if the wound is weeping excessively (as with infection/poison) and at that point, the adhesive won’t stick.  If this is the case you’ll know much sooner than a day.  If the wound edges are macerated (this links to a page with graphic images, but if you don’t want to see that, just imagine “pruny fingers” after too much time in the shower or in a pool and how they get pale and wrinkly- same thing) that is the ONLY time that a wound might need to “air” out.  The rest of the time, the body WANTS moisture. Cells and new growth cannot move in a dry environment.

Gonna take a second and double down on proper wound care.  If you know me, you know my feelings about gauze.  If you don’t know me, hi, pleased to meet you. F*** gauze (and yes, hospitals still use gauze today.  It’s a terrible decision that is “cheaper” than using a proper bandage, but it actually delays healing and becomes more expensive than if you had just used a proper bandage to begin with).
