You see, Martin says 'I grieved for you' to Jon, but this doesn't do justice for just what he would have gone through.

As most people know, having a loved one in hospital is horrible, but Jon's case is an entirely different thing. Assuming Jon was initially taken to a hospital in Great Yarmouth, it would've taken Martin a while to get there, even if he left right away. He might have missed Jon's emergency treatment, but he certainly didn't miss the worst of it.

Many people assume that CPR is a quick, simple, lifesaving procedure, it is not. Jon was found not breathing, and without a pulse, so he would have had at least 20 minutes straight of CPR, and that messes up a body. On a person as weak as Jon it would badly break ribs, and cause a lot of bruising. Even if Martin didn't have to watch Jon's chest be crushed to no avail, that type of damage is often visible.

I don't know if you've ever seen a dead body, but it's different to an unconscious one in every way. Jon of course, was not dead, but he would absolutely look it. As I'm sure you know, blood being pumped is what keeps the body warm, and breathing accounts for a large part of what we perceive as living, so the absence of both of these, especially in a loved one, is jarring, and likely to send anyone into shock

In lots of TV shows you see doctors calling deaths, but in reality it's actually quite a difficult thing to diagnose. It's not a quick check of the pulse and you're done, there's a lot of tests; there are many conditions that can look like death. In Jon's case his mind and nerves were still active, meaning it would have been picked up on fairly quickly, but Jon would have been assumed dead until these tests were completed.

The thing with a case like this, is there's nothing the doctors can feasibly do; as Elias says, it's an unknown quantity. The most likely course of action would be to make him as comfortable as possible, and redo the death checks every so often. There would be no hope for his recovery, but legally the hospital would have to do this, and would be able to offer very little comfort.

Although of course you want your loved one to survive, many family members of coma patients confess to hoping that they'd just die. The limbo of waiting is impossible to process, and having them there but having no way to communicate with them can be excruciating. There's no way to properly grieve for someone if you always have it in the back of your mind that they could wake up.

Giving up on someone like that is terribly and awfully painful. You can tell them you're sorry all you want, but you'll always be thinking about how they'd have wanted you to stay. Having to create both sides of an interaction like that when truly you're in control of neither is simply impossible to recover from.

Every action Martin took after Jon's death was justified, logical, even. To succumb to the lonely after leaving the man you love, sentencing him to die alone?

It feels right.

CSM #121 SPOILERS

Not only is Asa not dodging the femcel allegations...

...she's diving headfirst into them.

[baeshijima]

can we also just take a moment to appreciate the furina neuvillette parallels in their splash arts? like

furina being depicted as the "face"/the one everyone sees on the outside whereas neuvillette being the one doing the work in the background and ensuring her safety from a place not visible and hidden

also with it looking like furina is the one above while neuvillette is the one below ;w;

It is absolutely fucking wild Norman never, at any point, told the Lambda gang not to give Ayshe a gun.

“I’m usually cooped up in my room, avoiding this girl who wants to kill me for murdering her father.”

Somewhere out there there’s a universe where Oliver Banks, on his quest to go to literally the loneliest place in the world, in the middle of an ocean, finds Peter Lukas and the Tundra instead of the unnamed vessel he did take out there. I for one would have loved to see how that would turn out.

hello burn gorman enjoyers, i bring more rarities

so idk how many people are familiar with this image

i'd seen it around a bit, i know burn fans dug it up back in 2013 [x], and they assumed it had smth to do with drool skool (burn's beatboxing group), which i assumed too bc there was no reason not to.

but! i'm pleased to say i found out it's part of a series of promo images for a theatre production he did in '04 called gong donkeys! here's some more images i dug up (g-d bless the wayback machine); i hadn't seen these before ;0

infinity from birds of prey (1999)

re: my tags on this post... literally girl where are you. what's your deal. she shows up, sees the entire history of a dead guy by touching his head, puts a guy into a coma by phasing a hand through him, phases through the internet to manifest in a hacker's home, impersonates oracle, and stands in front of a laser and survives because bullets cannot touch her.

things we know about infinity: 1) invisible 2) british 3) powers include phasing, and memory-based telepathy, allegedly the result of a curse??

things we don't know about infinity: fucking ANYTHING ELSE. GIRL WHO ARE YOU.

literally the ONLY way Asa could interpret this (with her thinking Denji is a normal guy) is Yoshida having a crush on Denji
