jeremy so far has been the most avoidant pov in the world because what the hell are his issues? he's not even looking directly at them he's looking around them or focusing on everyone else's issues so he doesn't acknowledge his own
like with neil there was immediate acknowledgement with the memory of his mother's burning corpse but jeremy? nothing. is it parental issues? sibling issues? self issues? why was he in therapy? did he do something? did something happen to him? who knows? he does but he's not gonna look at all that when he can look at jean instead
jeremy is neil's 'i'm fine' personified times ten thousand he's so fine he doesn't even need to say it

Pinkie forced her to go to a party.
This honestly isn't even Sunset Shimmer anymore, but I don't give a fack, she's by far my favorite character in the AU. Can you tell I have a character type, lol.

Just finished season one of tgcf. Do I know everyone's names? I don't. Or am I sure what that guy's deal was with the snake girl?? Not entirely. And why?
I couldn't hear the plot over the gaydar beeping nonstop.
I'm sorry but how was I supposed to pay attention to anything when the wholeass time Hua Cheng was in the background, making heart eyes at Xie Lian??? Bro clocks into reality occasionally to check if there's any real danger or an opportunity to impress gege with some sick lore but otherwise? Just wondering how he likes his eggs in the morning and if it's possible to top AND bottom at the same time.

Low level/continuous pain tips for writing
Want to avoid the action movie effect and make your character's injuries have realistic lasting impacts? Have a sick character you're using as hurt/comfort fodder? Everyone has tips for how to write Dramatic Intense Agony, but the smaller human details of lasting or low-level discomfort are rarely written in. Here are a few pain mannerisms I like to use as reference:
General
Continuously gritted teeth (may cause headaches or additional jaw pain over time)
Irritability, increased sensitivity to lights, sounds, etc
Repetitive movements (fidgeting, unable to sit still, slight rocking or other habitual movement to self-soothe)
Soft groaning or whimpering, when pain increases or when others aren't around
Heavier breathing, panting, may be deeper or shallower than normal
Moving less quickly, resistant to unnecessary movement
Itching in the case of healing wounds
Subconsciously hunching around the pain (eg. slumped shoulders or bad posture for gut pain)
Using a hand to steady themself when walking past walls, counters, etc (also applies to illness)
Narration-wise: may not notice the pain was there until it's gone because they got so used to it, or may not realize how bad it was until it gets better
May stop mentioning it outright to other people unless they specifically ask or the pain increases
Limb pain
Subtly leaning on surfaces whenever possible to take weight off foot/leg pain
Rubbing sore spots while thinking or resting
Wincing and switching to using other limb frequently (new/forgettable pain) or developed habit of using non dominant limb for tasks (constant/long term pain)
Propping leg up when sitting to reduce inflammation
Holding arm closer to body/moving it less
Moving differently to avoid bending joints (eg. bending at the waist instead of the knees to pick something up)
Nausea/fever/non-pain discomfort
Many of the same things as above (groaning, leaning, differences in movement)
May avoid sudden movements or turning head for nausea
Urge to press up against cold surfaces for fever
Glazed eyes, fixed stare, may take longer to process words or get their attention
Shivering, shaking, loss of fine motor control
If you have any more details that you personally use to bring characters to life in these situations, I'd love to hear them! I'm always looking for ways to make my guys suffer more write people with more realism :)

Sometimes, Steve worries himself about the way he handled you in bed.
If you had to ask him, he'd say it isn't his fault. If anything, it is your fault for being irresistable, your soft body begging him to run his hands all over it, but still. Still, he can't help but worry about the way his rough, calloused hands behave when he loses himself in you.
He doesn't think about it when he's doing it, though. When he's kneading your flesh under his fingers, gripping your hips and love handles and waist, not knowing where to hold you first because every sliver of your skin calls for him.
When he has you has on top and his hips piston up into your velvet heat, and he squeezes your hips hard enough that his hands leave small imprints on you. When you're on your stomach and his hands find the exact same place, and you're whimpering not only because his cock is reaching impossibly deep inside of you, but because he's gripping you so tight, but it hurts so good.
He thinks about the way he's careless with his mouth, sucking bruises into your delicate skin. How careless he is with his fingers when they grab and pinch your nipples, but that's easily forgotten when he sees your face contorted in pleasure as he looks up from your chest. He always takes the time to kiss them better.
He feels especially apologetic after he manhandles you, working your body as he fucks you, changing positions by just moving you as he wants. Flipping you into your stomach, caging you in with his body to keep you in place, strong arms unwielding. Rolling you into your back when he can't stand not seeing your pretty face, slamming you into the mattress.
"I'm sorry" is almost always slipping from his lips when he holds you afterwards, but he forgets it as soon as he sees your fucked out face, all half-lidded eyes and kiss bitten lips, looking at him like he hung the stars and the moon. He's not sorry, then.
