just checked the word doc which has my draft of the shrewsbury wound-john bradmore sequence, thinking it was around 10k long. it's actually 19,242 words long. double what i thought it was. holy crap.
#text posts
#the henry v novels
#literally just goes from hal waking up immediately post-shrewsbury to hal waking up immediately post-operation
#and the start of a timeskip to his 17th birthday
#(i kinda want to revise it to put in stuff from what i learnt about facial injuries in wwi caused by shrapnel and add in two more joans)
#(joan of navarre and joan waryn hal's nurse - joan fitzalan is already there)
#reread it recently and thought about how the alternate povs of it would be SO UPSETTING
#hal's pov is somewhat kind to the reader because he's pretty out of it
#he's either out of it with rudimentary medieval painkillers and anaesthesia or off his face with pain.
#there's still emotional shit there but it's filtered through the physical pain and the 'drugs'
#everyone else is dealing with the emotional shitshow of seeing someone you love in absolute fucking agony begging to die
#while fearing he's going to die and having their own traumas
#(i.e. joan fitzalan watching the grandchild that most resembles her dead daughter almost die)
#(i.e. edward/aumerle has a brief appearance and you know he's Fucked Up because of losing richard ii and now he's losing hal)
#(i.e. richard courtenay is basically 'i will stay here and love him as he dies if he dies' and witnesses every. fucking. thing.)
#(i.e. joanne waryn is there and remembering him as a little baby she helped raise.)
#(i.e. humphrey is Just A Kid trying to be strong for his big brother and making everything worse for bradmore)
#(i.e. scrope can't cope and has to live with the guilt of that and oldcastle is overwrought and causing problems)
#(i.e. bradmore is like 'i can see you're in desperate need of a dad. hello desperate need i'm dad.
#also. i think your grandma might kill me if you die. so. don't ok?)
#(i.e. joan of navarre is meeting her new husband's son for the first time and hoping he doesn't die.)
#and hal's just. largely oblivious to all this.
