The needles only bother me when I can't see them going in.  If I can watch, it's not a problem.  Something to do with the suspense of it, I imagine.

I'm exactly the opposite: if I don't see it go in I can pretend like it's not actually happening. If I see it go in--myself or anyone else, including movies and TV--I freak out.

Im the same way Fell, but oddly enough I can cut into skin, and watch surgerys, but needles no way.

Well that didn't hurt at all. I was expecting it to be a tiny needle, but it was even smaller. Had I not known it was going in, I wouldn't have noticed it. I did watch it go in, but then looked away - mostly out of boredom.

Wow Jam, you can watch? Needles don't bother me much, though I did have some bad experiences with two when I twisted my knee. 60cc of blood drawn the first time, 33cc the second time. And I'm in pain, and the doctor is jerking my knee cap all over the place to find the best place to stick this huge needle. *shudder*

But I can't watch them go in. Eggh.

Ow. They neglected to mention that the day after receiving it, it would feel like someone punched me in the arm. Really really hard. Ok it's just a bruise, but it hurt more than the actual needle. Which is backward I think - if someone is going to stab me with a sharp implement, I want to feel the pain then and there, not the next day.

Still, I didn't throw up like some people did.

I think bruised from shots is a touch and go thing. Sometimes it happens and it's ugly, sometimes it doesn't. I've heard that it directly correlates to the skill of the impaler.

I've heard it correllates to the wimpiness of the person being shot,... er... getting the shot. Pansies.

Hey! As I said, I wasn't afraid of it at all. It just hurt the day after.

You know what scares me? Gemm. That's what scares me. He is truly, truly, truly outrageous. And he also doesn't post to AORP like he should.

Gemm is in AORP? Oh yeah. He's Hans

And your character is telling my character to trust his character's outlandish idea in Avast Ye?

I don't understand. And how could I possibly wrap a waist sash around my head in a way that didn't make me look like a leper?

My character is telling your character to trust the captain's idea. No special reason. He just saved Smiddy's life twice, so he trusts the captain implicitly.

Use it for a hood or something. Shadows. Act sultry instead of mean, too.

Well I would, but I've totally forgotten Hans' story. And the stuff I had on it is all gones...

Well of course I'm going to be sultry to them.

/me shakes head

She's just mad. She's a redhead with a temper. She does know how to control it.
