Minor Injury Meme


A meme for those minor injuries that won't leave you down but make it hard to live your life. The breaks, sprains, and the hurt/comfort that comes with them.

⇥ Post with your character (note the name and fandom and any preferences in the subject line).
↠ You or the people replying roll once for type of injury and again for the scenario or pick your own.
↠ Have fun.

INJURIES

1. SPRAIN: you stepped the wrong way, twisted the wrong way, and something has gone terribly wrong. Just remember RICE - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.

2. FRACTURE: You step off the sidewalk, working in the backyard, and suddenly BAM!! But it's not a sprain, oh no, you're in a cast for the duration. Good luck trying to get to work.

3. PULLED: It's not bad enough for medical attention but it still hurts something fierce. Break out the tiger balm or someone to give you a hand because you've pulled something. That awkward moment when you think you want vicodin...and nobody will give it to you.

4. MIGRAINE: Light hurts, air hurts, moving hurts. All you can do is lie in a darkened room and pray for the pounding pain to go away behind your eyes.

5. THE FLU: Maybe you're physically fine – well… all your limbs are working. You just feel like death warmed over.

6. WILDCARD: Anything else you can think of.

SCENARIOS

1. INJURED! WHAT NEXT?: You're out working, you're out having fun, you're out doing something when suddenly you step, twist, move and our bodies demonstrate just how fragile they really are. Quick! someone call the ambulance!

2. THE EMERGENCY ROOM: All the fun of a waiting room with rewards that include crutches, casts, X-Rays, vicodin, and sometimes just that one nurse who says "Yeah there's nothing wrong with you that'll be 400 dollars."

3. HOME AND SETTING UP THE NEST: Hurt, trying to make a space for you to get around. Hopefully someone is there to help you get to your crutches so you can go to the bathroom and make yourself something to eat.

4. PHYSICAL THERAPY HOME EDITION: The obligatory smut option. Do you not see that I'm wearing this cast?

5. OH GOD HELP I'M GOING TO DIE: That awkward moment when the fact that you are bedridden is crushing down on you and you're terrified you'll do something to make the injury worse. Snappish, angry, and rude - who are you going to take it out on?

6. DRIVE ME TO THE DOCTOR THIS SHIT IS COMING OFF: It's time, they say you can come in, take it off, and begin the next stage of recovery. Failing that, you’re going to grab a saw and cut the damn thing off yourself! Will there be joy, laughter, crying, happiness?

7. WILDCARD: Anything else you can think of.

"No, Dad, I swear, it wasn't a hint. But yeah, I would love to go." Sam said, holding up one of her hands in surrender. She shared a small smile with both her brother and Miguel. "But we'll never get a hold of her to ask her."

Deacon nodded as he pulled some burritos from the bag. "It's fine with me. I actually think it's really cool. Especially since you've had feelings for him since high school. You finally get to be together. I can't wait to meet him too." Deacon said, opening the Pepsi he'd set on the table in front of him.

"He's a great guy, D." Miguel said, smiling. "He's.. he's the father I never had."

"I'll try calling her." If they couldn't get hold of her then Daniel guessed they could just risk it? They couldn't put their lives on hold forever because Amanda was being difficult. He really didn't understand it at all. Even if the divorce had been messy, the kids should always still come first. They didn't just stop being their kids because they were seeing other people now.

Daniel took a bite of his food, even though the thought of eating made his stomach churn. He was too anxious to eat.

"I hope you get to meet him." Johnny would pull through... he had to. Daniel wasn't ready to let go of him, not when it had taken so long to get him in the first place.

Sam touched Daniel's arm. "He's gonna be okay, Dad." She said, she hated this whole thing, but she also wondered if there was something that Daniel wasn't telling her. This had been the flu... when did it turn into internal bleeding? Sam tried to focus on her food, she wasn't trying to make this more nerve wracking on anyone.

"I hope you get to go, Sam, it's really awesome." Deacon said, curls falling over his eyes. He looked at her, and then glanced at Miguel when he wasn't looking. Deacon sighed and tore his gaze away. He had to get over his crush on Miguel, and he knew it. It was going to be hard. He looked at his father. "I'm sure he'll be okay, Papa." Deacon told him, hoping it wasn't too soon to call him that.

He and Sam shared a soft smile.

"I hope you're right." Daniel knew Johnny was a stubborn asshole. He wanted to believe that he was far too stubborn to die on the operating table. But he also knew at the end of the day Johnny was human and even he couldn't out-stubborn death.

His stomach ached with nerves. He barely had an appetite but he knew Sam would worry if he didn't eat, so he forced himself to take a few more bites.

If only he had gotten Johnny to the hospital sooner. Things might have been different.

Sam looked at Miguel. "You want to go down to the gift shop? I want to get something for Papa." She said, and she partly wanted to give Deacon and Daniel some alone time together. Miguel gave her a small smile. "Yeah, okay." He agreed, and gave Sam a kiss. She grabbed up their trash. "We'll be back in a little bit."

Leaning to hug them both, she said, "I've got my phone. Let me know if something happens." Deacon gave her a nod, and watched them walk off. Then he looked back at Daniel. "You can quit pretending you're hungry now, Papa." He told him, putting his own trash back in the bag.

"I know you're not really hungry."

Daniel hugged Sam, pulling her in close so he could kiss her forehead before watching her and Miguel retreat.

He set his half-eaten food aside. "Sorry. I really do appreciate you bringing food for us all. I just... my stomach is doing somersaults. I know he'll be fine. Or rather... I hope he will be. But the way he just crashed so bad in the car... One minute he was fine and talking, the next he was unconscious..."

Daniel sucked in a breath. He could feel his panic rising. He put his head between his knees and counted his breaths. "... Sorry."

"No, Papa, it's okay. I understand. You're worried. It makes complete sense to me." Deacon said, brushing curls out of his eyes again. He moved to sit beside Daniel, and rubbed his back. "Breathe, Papa." Deacon said, he'd had his own share of panic attacks.

He'd spent his life being bullied. He knew the sting of a panic attack. Deacon was short, and while he had some muscles, not very many. He wasn't considered manly enough. And then there was the fact that he was gay. Deacon was used to it, he supposed.

Not that he was ever going to really get over it. "You have to try and stay calm, I know it's bad, but you have to try and think positively." Deacon advised.

Daniel tried to focus on his breathing. He tried to think back to all the techniques Mr Miyagi had taught him. Eventually his breathing shallowed and evened out and he was able to lift his head without feeling like he was going to hurl chunks.

"He needs to pull through. I need to tell him about you."

"You'll be able to, I know you will. He's going to be okay." Deacon said, and this is when a doctor came up to them. "Mr. LaRusso?" He asked, and then began to give him the news. "We stopped the internal bleeding, but your partner also took a lot of damage to his kidney. He's going to need a new one. I put him on the list, of course."

Then he paused before he told them the rest. "He'll have to start dialysis, I put him in for a referral to a doctor that can get that started for you."

Daniel felt like the rug had just been pulled from under his feet and he was spiralling. Fuck. They had stopped the bleeding and Johnny hadn't died on the table. That was fantastic news. But his kidney was fucked and he needed dialysis? That was messed up.

Kreese needed to pay for what he had done. But that... that could wait.

He sucked in a breath and tried to steady himself, trying not to look like he was spiralling too badly. "Can I see him?"

"He's in the ICU. Only family, and still, only two in the room at a time." The doctor told him, and then added, "He's not awake yet, he probably won't be for another hour or so, he's gonna be coming out of the anesthesia."

Deacon let out a breath. "Go, Papa. I can wait for Sam and Miggy, let them know what's happened. You should be there when he wakes up." Deacon said, squeezing Daniel's shoulder. He was trying his best to sound chipper. He knew this was bad. But he didn't want Daniel to have a panic attack right now. It wasn't going to help anyone, and Daniel needed to remain calm at the moment.

Daniel pulled Deacon into a hug. "Thank you." He stepped back and patted his arm. "I swear, when things calm down we'll talk properly. You and me. Any questions you have or anything. I promise."

He took a deep breath, trying to steady his nerves as he headed to the ICU. He hated hospitals. Hated everything about them. The smell, the sound, the artificial lighting. He had already sat by and watched his father and father figure die. He couldn't lose Johnny.

He took hold of Johnny's hand. "You gave me a scare, baby," he whispered, even though Johnny was still unconscious.

"Mmmm, where'm I?" Johnny mumbled, coming out of the anesthesia much sooner than the nurses had said he would. He opened his eyes, looking groggy. He was also doped up on pain medication and a sedative to keep him calm. He settled his eyes on Daniel. "Oh, hey, baby." Johnny said, a smile crossing his lips. He blinked as he took in the room.

"Hospital?" He asked, blinking more in surprise. "Am I okay?" He asked, looking down at himself, noticing that he had a scar on his side when he moved the blanket and hospital johnny. He blinked again and turned to Daniel, squeezing his hand. "Where're the kids?" Johnny asked, and then looked as if he'd gotten an idea. "Are they with Ma?"

That made sense.

Daniel's brows furrowed at Johnny's question about Ma. He figured it was the anaesthesia or the drugs talking so he tried not to focus on it too much. People said weird stuff all the time when they were coming around.

"Hey babe. Yeah, you're in the hospital. You're..." Fuck. He couldn't lie and say he was okay. But Johnny wasn't in any frame of mind to take in the news yet. "You're gonna be okay."

Daniel laced their fingers together, needing to feel Johnny, to know he was there and real. "Tony's with Amanda. Sam and Miguel are in the waiting room. Waiting for you to wake up. You want me to call Robby too?"

Tears brushed Johnny's eyes. "Robby won't come." He said, matter of factly. He looked around, and reached for the can of ginger ale that was sitting there for him, unopened with a straw sitting next to it.

That wasn't telling him what was wrong. "I'm glad Miguel and Sam are here." He said, blue eyes scrutinizing Daniel. "What's wrong with me, baby? You said I'm gonna be okay. Not that I am. What the fuck did Kreese do to me?"

His gaze dropped to their joined hands. Johnny stared at his fingers laced with Daniel's, his pale white ones laced with that gorgeous olive skin of Daniel's. Then he lifted his gaze back to the beautiful brown eyes of the man he had always loved.

"What's wrong with me, Daniel?"

Daniel leaned across to take hold of the can, opened it and popped the straw inside, holding it so Johnny could take a sip. Once he set the can aside, he carded his fingers through Johnny's hair. His other hand holding on to Johnny's hand like it was a lifeline, tethering him from spiralling.

He didn't want to say the words out loud. That would make it more real. He let out a heavy sigh, tongue snaking out to dampen his dry lips. "There um... there was some damage to your kidney. You're being put on the list for a transplant." Daniel gave Johnny's hand a squeeze. "You're going to need dialysis until a kidney is found..."

Had he really heard him correctly? Johnny's eyes misted, and he was definitely in shock. He gripped Daniel's hand tightly. "I'm gonna kill him." Johnny said, as tears dripped down his cheeks and fell onto the hospital gown. He couldn't just let this stand.

"And we are calling the cops. He can't get away with this, I almost died. And I still might." Johnny said, his voice was quiet, but full of rage. He didn't know if he had been angrier in his whole life. Johnny looked at Daniel. He still felt like there was something he didn't know.

Daniel had a very expressive face. He always had. "What else? There's something else you're not telling me. Just tell me, what can be worse than I need a kidney transplant?"

Kreese deserved death. No. He deserved worse than death. Daniel knew it went against every one of Mr Miyagi's teachings but the guy was a psychopath who almost killed Johnny. How many times did the man have to try to murder Johnny before the cops took it seriously?

Daniel wiped away Johnny's tears, leaning down to kiss his forehead.

"... Johnny. I, um... I have another kid. I have an eighteen-year-old son..."

Wait. Daniel had another kid? Johnny brushed a hand over his face. "You have another son?" He asked, looking at Daniel. He'd know if Daniel was lying, he'd never been good at that. "You just find out about him? Because if you didn't, that is a hell of a thing to keep secret from a guy."

He kept his blue, watery eyes on Daniel. "Do we know for sure that he's yours? How'd you find out? Did he call you? You're famous in the Valley, baby, he could want money."

"I found out today. Sam told me. They've been talking for awhile. She's seen a birth certificate and everything, apparently. But... he looks just like me. Eerily like me. I can't believe all these years and I've just had another kid out here in the Valley."

He sighed, brushing his thumb over Johnny's hand lightly. "I understand if this changes things. You didn't sign up to help raise three kids that aren't yours. And with everything you're going to be dealing with... I understand if you want to end things."

"Daniel Anthony, look at me. Look at me." Johnny repeated, and tilted Daniel's chin up so he was looking into his eyes. "Who said I wanted to leave? If he's yours, and he really isn't trying to get something from you, then he's mine, too. We're common law at least, Daniel. You just saved my life. And you already have in so many ways. I'm not going anywhere. You hear me?"

Johnny's eyes pricked with tears again at the thought of leaving Daniel. He started to freak out, he didn't want to even entertain the idea of living without Daniel or the kids. He was definitely having a panic attack. He gripped Daniel's hand, trying to remind himself that Daniel was still there. That he wasn't going anywhere.

Daniel looked into those beautiful blue eyes, even if they were currently dulled and tinged with red. His breath hitched in his throat at Johnny's words. Fuck. Just when he thought he couldn't love the guy any more than he already did.

"I hear you," he whispered, leaning down to press a kiss to Johnny's forehead, tears slipping from his eyes and rolling down his cheeks. He gave Johnny's hand a squeeze. "Hey... breathe with me, okay? Deep breaths."

Johnny worked on breathing, counting to five every time he took in a breath. There was a knock on the door. Sam was standing there. "Papa!" She said, running at him, hugging him as tightly as she dared. "I'm so glad that you're okay." She said, kissing his cheek.

"I'm still here, babygirl." Johnny said, managing to keep from fully panicking when he saw his daughter. "Is Miguel here too?" He asked, having already forgotten that Daniel had told him that. Sam, who didn't know this, smiled at him. "Yeah, he's in the waiting room with Deacon. He really wants to meet you, Papa."

Johnny gave her a small smile. "Yeah, your dad was just telling me about him. I want to meet him too."

Daniel drew his and Johnny's joined hands to his lips and kissed Johnny's knuckles lightly before setting his hand back on the bed and letting go. He then pressed a soft kiss to Johnny's head.

"There's only two allowed in at a time. So I'll step out so Miguel can come in, okay? I'll come back. I promise. But the kid will be climbing the walls until he's seen you."

Johnny grabbed his hand and tugged him back for a longer kiss. "Yeah, I know." He said fondly. Miguel was a good kid. And he was a good boyfriend to Sam. Johnny didn't think they could find better. And he was including Robby. He'd tried with that kid. Even after Robby had almost killed Miguel.

It was over, they were done. And now Kreese had him in his clutches. Johnny had done all he could do. He didn't like it, but it was what it was. He sipped his ginger ale. "Eat something, Daniel Anthony. You look pale."
