Gamora's leg hurt. No, she wasn't complaining about it, and no she wasn't going to make a big deal of it. But it hurt. Badly. She wasn't sure why it was hurting so badly, except that it was a deeper and larger injury than any she'd had in years. She was frustrated with herself too, for making such an amateur mistake that put her in this position in the first place.
Worst of all, though, Peter was mad at her. She hadn't meant for that to happen. She hadn't actually meant for him to find out at all. But he had some way or another and he'd been pissed at her for not telling him. She didn't understand why it was such a big deal...she'd hidden plenty of injuries from him before. She didn't like looking weak, and she did whatever she could to make sure that she didn't.
Whatever. Peter could do as he liked. Gamora had done what she'd had to do, and while she regretted her mistake, she didn't regret being out there and doing what she had to do to try to defend her community. She'd do it again.
Right now, she was sitting on the side of the tub with her leg exposed. The stitches were holding well, and so far, there was no sign of infection. This was probably mostly due to the fact that every morning, she'd been pouring nearly an entire bottle of rubbing alcohol on it. It was, perhaps, the most painful part of the entire thing, but she wasn't going to lose her leg.
Gamora hissed loudly as the liquid hit her injury, closing her eyes and gritting her teeth, and trying not to make any more noise than she had to.
