WIP Wheneversday

So @devilbunnyking tagged me earlier this week for WIP Whenever, and today happens to be Wednesday, so uhhh it's WIP both ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've never written a fight scene and it is s l o w going, but I have a little bit of an after started. So there's basically two parts that I'm working on simultaneously, how Darlin' got into the fight and then the gap leading up to answering the call from Sam.

There are a few benefits for having a shitty apartment in a questionable building, surprisingly. One of them is antisocial neighbors that won’t check the halls when someone limps in, won’t pry even if they catch sight of blood. There’s an unspoken accord that it’s no one’s business except the bleeder’s.

It’s nice that that’s one less thing to worry about right now, they think, as their spare hand shakes in their pocket for their keys, the other firmly clamped over the worst of the bleeding. The adrenaline hits differently now that they've shifted back, and they can feel their head beginning to spin as the keys evade their fingertips. After too many attempts they grab them, and upon fishing them out they rattle to the floor. 

They leave them there as they draw in a slow breath to calm the spinning, then inch down to pick the keychain up again, gripping them hamfistedly. Something in them tells them they need to be moving faster than this if they have any hope of handling their injuries on their own, that they’ve already lost enough blood, that any stalling could be—

do I want to tag anyone uhhhh next time. For today consider yourself tagged if you read this and want to be tagged <3 please, I'm not kidding, I crave human interaction but am just awkward about initiating it (￣y▽,￣;;)╭ Bonus: you can consider this a WIP Wednesday for next week OR a WIP Whenever!
